Jodie Turner-Smith recently opened up about her divorce from Joshua Jackson in a heartfelt interview, offering not just personal reflections but also some valuable relationship insights. Speaking for the first time since their split became public last fall, the British actor approached the topic with grace and wisdom.

Reflecting on the dissolution of their marriage, Turner-Smith emphasized the importance of prioritizing one’s own well-being and that of their family, particularly their children. She acknowledged that despite our best efforts, some things just don’t work out as we hoped, and that’s okay. “The most important thing is that you choose what’s healthiest for you and your family and definitely your children,” she emphasized.

Turner-Smith delved deeper, touching on the significance of self-awareness and authenticity in relationships. “There are so many different moments in our life where we look at ourselves and say, ‘Who am I and am I being true to that?’” she shared, highlighting the need for honest self-assessment. She stressed the repercussions of remaining in situations that are detrimental to our well-being, cautioning against the lasting effects not just on ourselves but on those around us.

Despite the end of her marriage, Turner-Smith expressed a sense of peace and optimism about the future. She reframed the separation not as a failure but as a transition to a new chapter for both herself and Jackson. “We obviously had such a beautiful moment together,” she reflected. “And now it’s time for a new moment for both of us. And how exciting!”

Turner-Smith and Jackson’s love story began in 2019 after meeting at Usher’s 40th birthday party, culminating in a marriage that captured the public’s attention. Turner-Smith had previously spoken fondly of Jackson’s support and love, portraying a picture of a nurturing partnership.

In her measured and thoughtful reflections on her divorce, Turner-Smith not only shared personal insights but also offered universal truths about resilience, self-discovery, and the importance of prioritizing one’s own well-being in matters of the heart.
