Jodie Turner-Smith's Revealing Insights on Love Languages After Joshua Jackson Breakup

Jodie Turner-Smith understands how to demonstrate love to someone according to their preferences.

On Monday, October 9, the 37-year-old actress shared a quote on her Instagram about love languages. The quote emphasizes that expressing love can take various forms, such as ensuring someone's safety, inquiring about their meals, asking them to call upon reaching home, or presenting a homemade gift.

Turner-Smith's recent social media post comes a week after the confirmation of her divorce from Joshua Jackson, with whom she was married to for four years. In her divorce petition, Turner-Smith cited irreconcilable differences as the reason for their separation, indicating September 13 as the official date. According to a source, Jackson, 45, was taken by surprise when Turner-Smith decided to end the marriage.

Joshua was evidently taken aback by Jodie's surprising choice to end their marriage, according to a trusted source. Like many couples, particularly those with demanding acting careers and the added responsibility of raising a child, they encountered their fair share of difficulties. It seems that Joshua was completely oblivious to the extent of Jodie's discontent and the severity of their problems.

Jackson and Turner-Smith's loved ones are in disbelief over their sudden relationship and subsequent parenthood. They became inseparable after their initial meeting, causing confusion among their friends who are trying to comprehend how this happened. Despite the unexpected lifestyle change, especially for someone like Jodie who values her freedom, their unwavering devotion to each other has left everyone astounded. The couple, who were first linked romantically in 2018, sparked marriage rumors when they were seen leaving a California courthouse shortly after less than a year of dating. Confirming the speculations, Jackson and Turner-Smith quietly exchanged vows and later welcomed their daughter within a year.

The film star, known for his role in Fatal Attraction, attributes his desire to marry to Turner-Smith. In an interview with London's The Times in April, he commented on the factors that led to this decision. "Age plays a part. I have reached a point in life where I can make this commitment. Additionally, finding someone at the right stage of life is crucial," he stated. Expressing his thoughts on their timing, he acknowledged that had they crossed paths five years earlier, their relationship may have been a passionate affair. However, he was not mentally prepared for marriage and had not considered it.

Upon meeting Turner-Smith, Jackson revealed that they practically lived every moment together. Shortly after their engagement, she became pregnant, and everything fell into place. "We embarked on the journey of parenthood within six months," he shared. As a result, they now have a beautiful child who truly embodies their love. Jackson emotionally reflects that when he gazes into their child's face, he feels an overwhelming love for his wife.

Pictures of Turner-Smith attending a Pilates class in Los Angeles after filing for divorce were exclusively obtained by Us. An eyewitness attested, "She displayed confidence and appeared prepared for an early morning workout on Saturday, October 7."
