\n\tBand breakups are never easy \u2014 even when the members aren\u2019t related.<\/p>\n

\n\tSo although it\u2019s been more than a decade since the Jonas Brothers<\/a> temporarily parted ways in 2013, Joe, Nick and Kevin still have some complicated feelings regarding their split.<\/p>\n

\t\t\t\t\tKevin Jonas Recalls \u2018Losing Almost All\u2019 of His Money After the Jonas Brothers\u2026\t\t<\/p>\n<\/h3><\/div>\n

\n\tIn a clip from an upcoming episode of Mythical Kitchen\u2019s Last Meals <\/em>series<\/a> that Billboard <\/em>is exclusively debuting below, the trio addresses whether they still harbor any \u201cguilt\u201d over the way they left things when the band broke up 12 years ago. Nick Jonas \u2014 whose idea it initially was for the brothers to fly solo after making music together for years \u2014 begins by saying that he doesn\u2019t feel \u201cguilt so much as, in reflection, I can definitely see how I could have more lovingly communicated something that needed to be said.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cIt\u2019s often how we say things that matters more than what we\u2019re saying,\u201d Nick continues as his older brothers nod in agreement. \u201cI think we all knew \u2026 it had run its course. I just didn\u2019t know how to maturely articulate that and lovingly do that.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tThough the breakup was a hard call, Joe says that \u201cit needed to happen.\u201d <\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cWe were having such a difficult time just being real with each other back then,\u201d the DNCE frontman adds in the interview. \u201cNow it\u2019s like we can communicate way better, because we don\u2019t need to be scared to have tough conversations.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tFollowing the Disney Channel-backed success of their first four albums, the JoBros decided to pull the plug on group activities after being unable to resolve internal disagreements over the direction of the band in 2013. Joe\u2019s remarks on Last Meals <\/em>echo what he previously told Billboard<\/a> <\/em>of the split in 2019.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cWe all wanted to create something on our own and were just trying to force it into what was going on,\u201d he said at the time. \u201cWe were going through the motions, without the heart of it \u2026 The way we communicated to each other wasn\u2019t healthy anymore.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tFast-forward to 2025, and the brothers are now gearing up to release their third album post-reunion. After coming back together in 2019 on Happiness Begins <\/em>\u2014 which earned the band its first-ever No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100<\/a> with \u201cSucker\u201d \u2014 the Jonas Brothers are set to follow up 2023\u2019s The Album <\/em>with Greetings From Your Hometown<\/em> on Aug. 8.<\/p>\n

\n\tAnd in repairing their relationship as a band, Kevin says that their connections as family members are also stronger than ever now. \u201cWhen there\u2019s a true need, we always band together,\u201d he shares on the podcast. \u201cWe\u2019re brothers first.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tThe full episode of Last Meals <\/em>featuring the Jonas Brothers will drop Thursday (July 31). Watch the exclusive clip below.<\/p>\n
