In a 2019 interview with Elle moments before Sophie and Joe tied the knot, the Citadel actress said: “I never had a sister, so it’s really nice to have Danielle and Sophie, and just inherit the family by proxy.

Joe is reportedly looking for a 50/50 settlement.
Things have already gotten ugly in the legal back-and-forth and could get even uglier if the couple is forced to air their laundry during a divorce trial, currently scheduled for January 2.
A legal filing from Joe details how the couple’s three-year marriage quickly deteriorated in August after he allegedly saw his wife insulting him on their Ring camera.
The Only Human artist filed for divorce two weeks later, claiming their relationship was “irretrievably broken.”
Sources close to the singer have reportedly tried to portray Sophie as someone who was partying too hard and left Joe to care for their daughters.
Joe’s lawyer has already said he will call multiple witnesses if the details have to be worked out in court.
The Staircase star responded with her own lawsuit in New York, seeking protection under international child abduction laws, after Joe refused to surrender the children’s passports for Sophie’s planned return to Britain.
Mediation: The former couple participated in a court-ordered mediation to try to resolve their divorce. If that fails, a trial date has been set for January 2 (pictured in October 2022 in Los Angeles)
The compromise was that she would remain in New York until the divorce was finalized.
In the court papers, the Survive actress claimed that the couple sold their Miami home in March and purchased a $9 million home near Oxford, England, which they intended as their “forever home.”
Sophie went further into legal files in Miami, where she included a letter the musician wrote to the property’s seller, showing he was excited about the prospect of living there.
The former couple paid a 10 percent down payment of $900,000 on the house on July 7, two months before they split. The final purchase, which would take place in December, is up in the air.
