The couple’s pregnancy news came nine months after they tied the knot in Las Vegas following the Billboard Awards. Diplo live-streamed the surprise May 2019 wedding ceremony via Instagram, which the Dark Phoenix star found “funny.”

It would have been better if no one had known,” the English star told PorterEdit later that same month. “I think at some point I would have had to stop saying ‘fiancé,’ but … marriage is a private thing between two people and I think that’s how it should always be. It’s not about the dress, it’s not about the food. It’s about being husband and wife, and being dedicated to each other forever.”

 

Turner went on to say, “I don’t know if I feel like a wife yet. I don’t know how I feel. I mean, I feel good, obviously. But it happened so recently that I’m just kind of floating at the moment.”

As for the former Disney Channel star, Jonas found himself doing “a lot of apologizing” after his secret wedding.

“In my mind, that was the legal portion of the marriage,” the Camp Rock actor explained during a June 2019 SiriusXM appearance. “So I was thinking, like, ‘Look, this is not the most important day.’ There’s an important day, I mean, I’ll keep private, but ahead of us. So we were, like — ‘This is, like, just whoever’s in town.'”
