Sophie Turner and Joe Jonas split up just before their wedding, as they both had cold feet.

The Game of Thrones star got married to Joe Jonas in Vegas a few weeks ago, but turns out they had actually split up just a day before.

Speaking to The Sunday Times, the actor said: ‘It was the worst day of our lives.’

However, the split was shot-lived as they realised they wanted to be with each other soon after.

‘For a second we both had cold feet, then 24 hours later we were both, like, “Never mind”’, she added.

Sophie, who also stars in The X-Men, explained that being in the spotlight from such a young age – she was only 13 when she was cast for the role of Sansa – led to her having mental health issues.

‘Having your adolescence being displayed in public, that's something I really wish hadn't happened’, she said.

‘Being in the age of social media when that's happening, I think I would be a much saner person if I hadn't been documented from 13 — your most awkward, uncomfortable, unsure-of-yourself years.’

The 23-year-old continued to say she had ‘this phase of being very mentally unwell’, but Joe helped her get through it.

‘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.”

‘That was something, him doing that. I think he kind of saved my life, in a way’, she said.

The pair tied the knot after the Billboard Awards at famous chapel in Vegas, but are still planning to have a big wedding later this year, which will reportedly happen in France.

Joe said on The Late Late Show with James Corden: ‘We’re getting married this year. We’re going to have a summer wedding.’
