Before their recent romantic developments, Sophie Turner had a well-known celebrity crush on Chris Martin. Her then-husband, Joe Jonas, once bought her a special cameo from the Coldplay singer to celebrate her birthday.
Back in 2020, Joe Jonas orchestrated a memorable birthday surprise for Sophie Turner by arranging a personalized video message from Chris Martin. This sweet gesture was captured on Jonas’ short-lived Quibi series, Cup of Joe, and has recently gained attention again amid news of Turner and Martin’s budding relationship.
Joe Jonas bought a cameo of Chris Martin for Sophie Turner when they were married
During the episode, Jonas playfully introduced the surprise by telling Turner he had a birthday message from a “friend.” Her reaction was one of genuine surprise and excitement as she realized the video featured Martin, her longtime celebrity crush. This delightful moment has resurfaced, sparking admiration from fans who are applauding Turner’s ability to seemingly manifest her dreams into reality.
“This is Chris from Coldplay,” Martin said, per Page Six. “I wanted to say on behalf of me and the even more handsome members of our band.”
Turner responded to this by shaking her head and saying, “No,” clearly implying that she found Martin the most attractive person in the band.
“I hope you are having the best day,” he continued. “I send you all my love and I hope you’re having a great time. Thanks for being awesome. Bye.”
He blew a kiss to the camera before ending the clip. After the video ended, Turner gave the phone back to Jonas and said she wasn’t going to “cry on camera.”
Sophie Turner is now dating Chris Martin
Five years later, Turner and Martin are now dating. She and Jonas separated in 2023, and Martin ended his eight-year relationship with Dakota Johnson this year.
“They have gone out on a few dates in London,” a source told Us Weekly. “It is still very new, but they have a lot of chemistry, and there’s a definite spark between them.”
Turner and Martin reportedly met in passing and have always been on friendly terms.
“It was always friendly,” the source said. “Sophie has always admired Chris and was a big fan of both him and his music long before they ever met. She’s even joked that she used to have a bit of a crush on him, so it’s funny and surreal that they actually connected in a romantic way in real life.”
People are praising her power of manifestation
The clip from Cup of Joe has resurfaced now that Turner and Martin are dating. Many people have praised Turner for seemingly manifesting a relationship with her celebrity crush.
“Wow she’s living her dream, love this for her,” wrote one person on Reddit.
“Oh she’s an icon,” added someone else. “I would never shut up about this.”
People joked that the new relationship makes Turner’s delight in the video all the funnier. They also wondered how Jonas feels in light of the news.
“I would love to have seen Joe’s reaction when this news came out,” wrote one person. “To be a fly on that wall!”
Jonas admitted that his busy schedule has made dating slightly difficult for him.
