For Taylor Swift, lending one of her New York properties to Sophie Turner stems from a deep desire to be a true friend to Turner during her divorce from Joe Jonas. A source told Us Weekly that Swift “instinctively wanted to reach out” to Turner when she heard news of her and Jonas’ split.
Turner and Jonas are keeping their daughters in New York City as they work through their child custody case. Swift’s home is now Turner’s for the duration of the process. The singer is “letting Sophie stay there as long as she needs and is supporting her however she can,” the source said.
In a separate story, a source told Us Weekly that “Sophie is free to stay at Taylor’s investment property in NY until the custody case with Joe [Jonas] has been finalized.”

While Swift herself dated Jonas for a few months when she was 18, she is very much respecting boundaries now. Her priority is being there for Turner.
“[She] doesn’t know all the details [of the divorce] because she doesn’t feel like it’s her place,” a source said on September 29. “All she is concerned with is being there to support her friend.”
Turner and Jonas started mediation today for their custody case; it is slated to continue for four days. A source told People on September 28 that Turner “is doing okay.” The source added, “Taylor has opened her home to Sophie. Sophie is welcome there any time. Taylor continues to be a great friend.”
While Turner hasn’t spoken about her friendship with Swift, the two have been photographed out together frequently. Notably, Turner was part of Swift’s squad at Travis Kelce’s Kansas City Chiefs game against the New York Jets on Sunday.
