During a recent interview with [_Marie Claire_](http://www.marieclaire.co.uk/news/sophie-turner-interview-518581), the 21-year-old actor said she is “very happy” dating the DNCE frontman. However, she did reveal one downside to their relationship. “You do feel like you’re living in a fishbowl,” she said of being part of a celebrity couple. “It’s frustrating \[that\] it’s the most mundane things that make the news—how boring!” Turner explained she doesn’t even need to be out with Jonas to receive unwanted attention. “I find it really rude, and I will be rude back,” she said, referring to fans who try to secretly take photos of her. “It’s such an invasion of privacy. I could be out with my mum on her birthday and I will ask them to delete it. I would much rather them come up and ask for a photo. I will probably be fine with it…unless I look s—t!” As for her and Jonas’ fan moniker “Jophie,” Turner said she’s more on board with the nickname for her friendship with _Thrones_‘ co-star [Maisie Williams](http://time.com/4689569/game-of-thrones-maisie-williams-sophie-turner-friendship/) — who plays her onscreen sister Arya Stark. “I prefer “Mophie,'” she explained. “What’s that thing they say? Relationships come and go but friendship is always there.” ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4846878/sophie-turner-on-dating-joe-jonas/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4846878/sophie-turner-on-dating-joe-jonas/"},"headline":"Why Game of Thrones' Sophie Turner Says Dating Joe Jonas Is Like 'Living in a Fishbowl'","datePublished":"2017-07-06T15:09:55.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:45:09.555Z","description":"The Game of Thrones star revealed a downside to their relationship","url":"https://time.com/4846878/sophie-turner-on-dating-joe-jonas/","keywords":["Newsfeed","celebrities","Maisie Williams","Sophie Turner"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt9f7648dc8ed6cb0d/6988d49bcf40a85503c486f6/joe-jonas-sophie-turner.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Megan McCluskey","jobTitle":"Staff Writer","url":"https://time.com/author/megan-mccluskey/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt9f7648dc8ed6cb0d/6988d49bcf40a85503c486f6/joe-jonas-sophie-turner.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"Celebrity Sighting At Paris Airport - Paris Fashion Week Womenswear Fall/Winter 2017/2018","caption":"Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner arrive at Aeroport Roissy - Charles de Gaulle on March 6, 2017 in Paris, France.","creditText":"Marc Piasecki/GC Images","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/4846878/sophie-turner-on-dating-joe-jonas/","name":"Why Game of Thrones' Sophie Turner Says Dating Joe Jonas Is Like 'Living in a Fishbowl'"}}]}] ```
