Joe Jonas was scared to catch the “lovebug” again after his divorce from Sophie Turner.
The singer admitted getting back into dating was “scary and intimidating” as he reflected on creating his new song “Only Love.”
“I was seeing somebody at the time and I was kind of having this idea of dating again. It was really scary and intimidating,” he said during a TalkShopLive stream Wednesday.
“Love takes different shapes and forms and I was rediscovering what that was,” he added.
However, the unidentified person he was dating at the time quickly dismissed his fears by telling him, “Well, it’s only love.”
“I was like, ‘Well, when you put it that way…’ So we wrote a song about it,” Jonas, 35, shared.
“Like, it was not a big deal, but it was a big deal to me, and a big deal to them, too. But it’s OK to take a leap of faith and just try again and put yourself out there.”
“Only Love” will appear on the musician’s new album, “Music for People Who Believe in Love,” dropping Friday.
Jonas and Turner finalized their divorce in September 2024 after a messy custody battle over their two daughters, Willa, 4, and Delphine, 2.
The “Game of Thrones” alum, 29, had previously launched a lawsuit against the DNCE singer, accusing him of withholding their daughters’ passports and preventing them from returning to England, her home country.
In a statement from his rep, the Jonas Brothers band member denied his ex’s allegations, calling the lawsuit a “harsh legal position” that went against the “amicable co-parenting setup” he believed they were working toward.
Turner eventually dropped the filing after they reached a co-parenting agreement.
The former couple called it quits in September 2023 after four years of marriage.
Jonas started dating model Stormi Bree in January 2024, but the romance only lasted five months.
Last June, he was seen cozying up to actress Laila Abdallah in Greece. Months later, he was spotted with a mystery woman in Paris.
