Joshua Jackson: Latest Updates on ‘Doctor Odyssey’ and Personal Life

Joshua Jackson, the renowned actor from the hit series ‘Dawson's Creek,’ has been making headlines recently for both his professional and personal life. On the professional front, Jackson is starring in the new ABC medical drama ‘Doctor Odyssey,’ which premiered in late September. The show, often described as a blend of ‘Love Boat‘ and ‘Grey's Anatomy,’ follows the story of Max, the new on-board doctor for a luxury cruise ship, as he and his medical team navigate unique medical crises and personal relationships miles from shore[3].

In ‘Doctor Odyssey,’ Jackson is joined by a talented cast, including Phillipa Soo, Don Johnson, and Laura Harrier. The series has already garnered attention for its intriguing plot and the unpredictable character portrayal by Jackson, who plays the lead role of the on-board doctor[3].

On the personal front, Jackson has been in the news due to his recent divorce from actress Jodie Turner-Smith. In an interview with *The Times,* Turner-Smith opened up about the reasons behind their divorce, filed in October 2023. She emphasized the importance of recognizing when a relationship is not working and taking steps to move forward, especially for the sake of their 3-year-old daughter, Juno Rose Diana Jackson. Turner-Smith stated that their divorce is not a failure but rather a step towards a better life for everyone involved.

Since the divorce, Jackson has been spotted with actress Lupita Nyong'o, suggesting he may be moving on. The two were seen together at a Janelle Monáe concert and later on a romantic stroll near their Autocamp resort in Joshua Tree, California. Meanwhile, Turner-Smith has been focused on her work and being a good mother, and she is not giving much attention to Jackson’s new relationship[4]).
