LONDON, UK: Sophie Turner, known for her role in 'Game of Thrones,' recently revealed her discomfort with being referred to as "the wives" of the Jonas Brothers.

Turner, who is British, also expressed her dislike of living in LA. Despite the warm welcome from the Jonas family, she started to observe how she was perceived by many in association with her husband.

However, Turner found herself grappling with the label of being perceived solely as a spouse of a Jonas Brother. She expressed, "There was a lot of attention on the three brothers, and the wives," 

She made the comment in reference to Nick and Kevin's wives, Priyanka Chopra Jonas and Danielle Jonas.

"Well, we were always called the wives, and I hated that."

"It was kind of this plus-one feeling," added Turner. "And that’s nothing to do with him – in no way did he make me feel that – it was just that the perception of us was as the groupies in the band."

Turner found her new life in LA to be quite isolating, saying, "You can’t just bump into someone at a bar there, you have to drive 40 minutes with an intention of seeing someone."

Despite being fully welcomed into her husband’s prominent family, she felt a sense of unease.

"There was a lot of attention on the three brothers, and the wives. Well, we were always called the wives, and I hated that," she explained. "It was kind of this plus-one feeling. And that’s nothing to do with him – in no way did he make me feel that – it was just that the perception of us was as the groupies in the band."
