In a heart-wrenching and emotional moment that left fans both moved and tearful, Joe Jonas, the renowned singer and former Jonas Brothers member, took the stage at Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles, California, and delivered a touching performance of “Hesitate,” a song he had written for his now-estranged wife, Sophie Turner.
As Joe Jonas began his performance, he first expressed his heartfelt gratitude to the crowd for their unwavering love and support, saying, “Thank you, everyone, for the love and support to me and my family, I love you guys.” The atmosphere was initially one of warmth and appreciation, but it took an emotional turn as he delved into the love song dedicated to Sophie.

The moving moment was captured by a fan’s camera, and the video quickly went viral on social media, with fans and well-wishers sharing their support for Joe during this difficult time.
The significance of “Hesitate” was previously revealed by Joe Jonas in the Jonas Brothers’ 2020 documentary, “Chasing Happiness.” In the documentary, he disclosed that the song was a heartfelt promise to Sophie Turner, stating, “Hesitate is a song I wrote. It’s like my vows before I wrote my vows. It’s my promise to Sophie. For me, it takes me to a whole other universe, I’m seeing her walk down the aisle again every time I close my eyes.”
The emotional performance comes in the wake of Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner’s separation announcement on September 6, marking the end of their four-year marriage. In a joint statement released at the time, the former couple expressed their mutual respect and commitment to co-parenting, saying, “We are sad to announce that we are going our separate ways.
