“I think he kinda saved my life” SOPHIE TURNER credits her husband JOE JONAS

“Game of Thrones” star Sophie Turner commends her husband “singer-songwriter” Joe Jonas for saving her life, following years of mental health and body image struggles.

The 23-year-old actress recently talked to the press about battling depression and an eating disorder. In a new interview, she gets honest about her issues, noting that at one point, she lost so much weight that her periods stopped.

In a recent interview she mentioned that she first met Joe Jonas when she was 20, and she “was going through this phase of being very mentally unwell.”

“He was, like, ‘I can’t be with you until you love yourself, I can’t see you love me more than you love yourself,'” Turner said. “That was something, him doing that. I think he kind of saved my life, in a way.”

In April, Sophie Turner told Dr. Phil on his podcast, Phil in the Blanks, that negative comments about her character on social media caused a decline in her mental health, following ”five or six years battling depression” and added, “I used to think about suicide a lot when I was younger.”

Turner had told Marie Claire Australia in comments posted earlier this month, “I have experienced mental health first hand and I’ve seen what it came do to the people around [the sufferers] as well.” Turner also recalled how her body changed as she grew older and how film and television studios put pressure on her to lose weight.

She said she sought therapy, adding, “Everyone needs a therapist, especially when people are constantly telling you you’re not good enough and you don’t look good enough. I think it’s necessary to have someone to talk to, and to help you through that.”

Despite its dark side, which plagues millions of people worldwide, social media has also helped Turner find happiness. She and Jonas, 29, met in 2016 after he slid in her DMs.

They first sparked romance rumors in that November when they were spotted getting cozy at a pre-MTV Europe Music Award event. They made their relationship Instagram official in January 2017. In October 2017, they got engaged.

Earlier this month, they surprised everyone by getting married in Las Vegas after the 2019 Billboard Music Awards, ahead of a larger wedding in France.
