She’s only human, Joe.

Joe Jonas faced backlash on social media Tuesday after the “S.O.S.” singer filed for divorce, claiming that his ex Sophie Turner’s affinity for partying was to blame for the spilt.

“She likes to party; he likes to stay at home. They have very different lifestyles,” a source close to the couple told TMZ shortly before Jonas, 34, filed a petition to end his marriage to the “Game of Thrones” star.

Since the comments were released to the public, the second-eldest Jonas brother has been trolled by online users claiming that Jonas is trying to make Turner, 27, look like a bad mother.

“Joe Jonas could have just quietly filed for divorce,” sneered one user on X. “But the over the top smear campaign plus the fact that he waited for her to be in the UK and leave the kids with him before he filed in the US just makes him look scummy.”

“The way they’ve tried to make him a martyr for just being a dad. No, we’re not doing that,” slammed a second user.

“This really gives off controlling vibes from Joe because he’s literally on tour but he’s divorcing her for partying,” quipped a disgusted user. “He did not marry a grandma who’ll just sit there & wait for him for crying out loud.”

One fan claimed the statement sounded like Jonas and his p.r. team were trying to “get ahead of something.”

“His team just keeps putting out stories about how he tried to save the marriage,” the fan wrote. “How she’s a big partier, and all these other stories while she hasn’t said a word.

“It’s like, these people are trying to get ahead of something,” added the user.

News that Jonas was seeking to end his four-year marriage to the UK native emerged Sunday and was subsequently confirmed after the “Celebrate!” singer hired lawyer Tom Sasser, who famously handled Tiger Woods’ divorce, to represent him in the upcoming proceedings.

The Post reached out to Jonas, Turner and Sasser for comment.

The children are said to live primarily with Jonas, and the singer is said to be caring for them “pretty much all the time.”

Turner’s penchant for partying is believed to have factored into the split, and a source said the pair have “very different lifestyles.”

Turner is suing Jonas for the return of their two daughters to England, the actress claims she found out her estranged husband filed for divorce “through the media.”

Jonas fired back at the lawsuit, claiming it goes against an “amicable co-parenting setup.”

Jonas also claimed that he and Turner would like to share joint custody of the couple’s two children —
3-year-old Willa and a 1-year-old whose name they have yet to announce — despite the fact both children reside in Miami with their father.

Also stated in the couple’s ironclad prenup agreement, the Grammy nominee will “keep all of his royalties from the music” he’s made with his brothers, as well as his other band, DNCE.

Turner will also reportedly keep the money she made from “Game of Thrones” and “any residuals from her acting career.”

The pair will also “keep the rights to their image and likeness and businesses associated with their celebrity status.” 

Jonas and Turner released a joint statement claiming their split was a “united decision.”

“After four wonderful years of marriage we have mutually decided to amicably end our marriage,” the estranged couple wrote in a post to Instagram. “There are many speculative narratives as to why but, truly this is a united decision and we sincerely hope that everyone can respect our wishes for privacy for us and our children.”
