At the Met Gala in 2024, Jodie Turner-Smith made a striking fashion statement since her ex-husband Joshua Jackson and his new girlfriend Lupita Nyong’o were not present.
Jodie Turner- Smith made a splash at the star-studded event on Monday night, as she debuted her dazzling platinum blonde straight hair.
The 37-year-old actress Jodie Turner-Smith and model wore a stunning white dress with a sheer feathered cloak that trailed behind her and elaborately embroidered flowers.
The Queen & Slim actress, who mingled with Zendaya and Jennifer Lopez at the event, accessorized her blonde wig with dangling earrings, winged eyeliner, and eyeshadow.
She wore a cross necklace, purple bangles, and a purple flower as accessories.
Additionally, there wouldn’t be any embarrassing run-ins for the celebrity as she boldly rocked her outfit on the red carpet in front of a plethora of photographers because Jackson, 45, and Black Panther star Nyong’o, who frequently attends the Met Gala, were reportedly miles away in California.
On September 13, 2023, Jodie Turner-Smith filed for divorce from her actor spouse, alleging “irreconcilable differences.” Afterwards, she disclosed that she made the decision to “make a move because I believe that staying in places that are not good for us has visible scars.”
She said to the Sunday, February 25 edition of The Times in the United Kingdom, “There are times when things we really want to work just don’t end up working.” And it’s alright. Making the best decision for your family’s health, particularly that of your children, is crucial.
“There are so many different moments in our lives when we look in the mirror and ask, ‘Who am I, and am I being true to that?'” the speaker went on. If the response is negative, you must.

“I always want to set that kind of example for my daughter,” she continued. “The bravest thing in the world is to recognize when something isn’t working and to make a move.”
For the sake of their 3-year-old daughter, Jodie Turner-Smith continued, there is “just as much love and joy as it has always been.” The couple had a daughter a year after secretly getting married in December 2019.
Following their separate breakups in December of last year, Jackson and Nyong’o began dating. Joshua and Lupita had only recently started dating. They’re trying to hide their relationship as much as possible, a source at the time told Us Weekly.
“Even though it’s only been a few weeks, they had a really strong foundation for a relationship because they were friends before dating,” the insider continued. Even if everything is brand-new, so far, so good.
Nyong’s has since disclosed that she won’t be announcing her new romance in public. In an interview with Porter magazine in February, The Star revealed that she will no longer be flaunting any new romances after her highly publicized romance with artist Selema Masekela ended in heartbreak last year.
She claimed that considering how quiet she is normally, it was “very, very sage of me” to be open about her relationship with her ex on social media platforms. “By the way, I’m returning to those days.”
