Joe Jonas is allegedly finding it tough to watch his ex-wife, Sophie Turner, move on so smoothly with her new beau.
According to recent reports, the singer feels humiliated as Sophie has gone Instagram official with her new boyfriend, Peregrine Pearson, while he struggles to find a new relationship.
Sources close to Jonas shared that when Sophie first started dating Perry, many, including Joe, thought it would be a brief fling.
“Everyone — and especially Joe — assumed it would be a quick fling,” a tipster revealed. However, nearly a year later, the relationship is proving to be more than just a casual romance.
Sophie and Peregrine’s relationship appears to be serious, leaving Joe feeling both surprised and uneasy. “They’ve now been together nearly a year and are very serious,” the insider explained.
The source added that Sophie has expressed that dating a fellow Brit feels much more comfortable and that Peregrine is a better match for her than Joe ever was.
What’s even more difficult for Joe to digest is the realization that this is no rebound. Sophie and Peregrine’s relationship is reportedly the real deal, causing Joe to burn with jealousy.
“It’s clear to everyone this is not a rebound romance. It’s the real deal — and Joe’s burning with jealousy!” the insider added.
While the “Sucker” singer is reportedly struggling with his emotions, the advice he’s being given is to focus on himself rather than worrying about Sophie’s new relationship.

However, that seems to be easier said than done. The source close to the situation suggested that Joe may quickly dive into another relationship to keep up appearances and avoid feeling one-upped by his ex-wife.
“What’s more likely is he’ll hop into another relationship just to prove she can’t one-up him!” the insider concluded.
The breakup between Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner has been in the spotlight ever since they announced their split.
With Sophie seemingly moving on and finding happiness, Joe’s reported struggle to move past the relationship has only added fuel to the gossip fire.
For fans of the former couple, this latest development adds a new layer of drama to an already high-profile split, and many will be watching to see how Joe responds to Sophie’s new chapter with Peregrine Pearson.
