Taylor Swift served as Sophie Turner's saving grace amid the fallout of the Game of Thrones alum's divorce from Joe Jonas.

"Taylor was an absolute hero to me this year," Turner, 28, told Vogue UK in a candid interview published May 15, noting how the "Guilty as Sin?" singer, 34, was able to offer up her New York City apartment as a place of refuge for the actress and her two young daughters as the divorce drama ensued.

It was during this time that Turner and Swift — who, for her part, dated Jonas for several months in 2008 — were spotted dining out together in New York City, photographed deep in conversation.

"I've never been more grateful to anyone than I am for her because she took my children and me, and provided us with a home and a safe space," Turner shared. "She really has a heart of gold."

Turner and Jonas' relationship was a whirlwind, Turner lamented: she and the "Sucker" singer got engaged in 2017, one year after they began dating, and tied the knot in two separate ceremonies two years later.

"It was really surreal, like a fever dream," the Staircase star told Vogue UK. "Because he was older than me, I just felt like I was really taken care of, to the point I came back home and didn't know how to do anything for myself."

The pair then welcomed daughter Willa in 2020 and daughter Delphine in 2022. The Jonas Brothers musician, 34, filed for divorce from Turner one year later; the British actress subsequently sued Jonas for their daughters' passports, though the lawsuit was dismissed and the two reached a custody agreement earlier this year.

"I'm unhappy with the way everything played out, especially when it comes to my children. They're the victims in all of this. But I think we're doing the best we can," Turner mused. "I'm confident that we can figure it out. Joe is a great father to our children and that's all that I can ask for."
