She was 21 at the time while Joe was 27. While their romance has bloomed quite beautifully over the years, it turns out Turner wasn’t expecting to get engaged at all, let alone in her early twenties.
“I was fully preparing myself to be single for the rest of my life,” she tells Rolling Stone, as herself and Game of Thrones co-star Maisie Williams cover the magazine’s latest issue.
“I think once you’ve found the right person, you just know,” she adds.
The actress is 23 years old now, but she says she feels more like 27 or 28. “I feel like I’m much older a soul than I am in age,” she added to Rolling Stone. “I feel like I’ve lived enough life to know.”
Turner and Jonas are planning to get married this summer, Joe revealed on The Late Late Show in early March. “It’s going to be a lot of fun,” the singer said then.
Now they live together with two dogs in an apartment in New York City’s Nolita neighbourhood, Turner revealed to Rolling Stone, but that would never be her greatest achievement.
“There’s this weird misconception that being married is the greatest thing that’ll ever happen to you,” the ambitious woman says, adding: “But I’ve always found that my career is something I work for, and when I achieve something, there’s a sense that this is the greatest thing I’ll do in my life.”
