Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner reach custody agreement after abduction claims

Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner have reportedly reached an agreement on the custody of their two daughters.

The former couple made headlines last week after Jonas was accused of "wrongful retention" of their children. Jonas reportedly refused to give Turner their daughters' passports. The actress wanted to return to England with their two children, but the singer refused, despite previously agreeing to raise their kids in the UK. The pair have now agreed to raise their daughters in New York.

Last week, Joe Jonas shut down claims that he 'abducted' his two daughters. A representative for the Waffle House singer said he wants their children to be raised in both England and America. They stated: "Joe is seeking shared parenting with the kids so that they are raised by both their mother and father and is, of course, also okay with the kids being raised both in the US and the UK." Joe and Sophie announced they were divorcing after four years of marriage in early September. The couple were together for six years before mutually deciding to end their relationship.
