From their humble beginnings as a summer 2018 romance to their elaborate wedding celebrations, Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas have become a major celebrity power couple. Here, relive their Met Gala meeting, Chopra’s latest emotional birthday montage, and every moment in between. Plus, see the heartfelt messages they penned for the second anniversary of their first date.

2016

It was revealed in a December 2018 Vogue cover story that Jonas made the first move via Twitter DM on September 8, 2016. “I’m hearing from a few mutual friends that we should meet,” he wrote to Chopra. She responded, ‘My team can read this. Why don’t you just text me,’ along with her phone number.

The future couple would text for several months, although Chopra admits she had never allowed her relationships to go public before. But when it came to Jonas, she told Vogue she thought, “What is happening? I’ve not known myself like this.” Jonas had been previously linked to Olivia Culpo and Miley Cyrus.

February 2017

In the same Vogue interview, the pair remembers reconnecting at the 2017 Vanity Fair Oscars afterparty. Jonas recalls that when he saw Chopra walk into the room, he put his drink down and got on one knee to say (in front of a crowd), “You’re real. Where have you been all my life?'”

May 2017

Months later, Ralph Lauren coincidentally invited both Jonas and Chopra to attend the Met Gala in his designs. A week before the event, Jonas and Chopra grabbed a drink together at the Carlyle Hotel. She also invited Jonas to her apartment for a night that ended not with a kiss, but a platonic back pat. However, Joe Jonas told Vogue that after the Met Gala and its afterparties Chopra “kind of knocked him off his feet. He was just this little puppy dog.”

Later that month, Chopra told Andy Cohen on Watch What Happens Live that while she wouldn’t rule out a future flirtation with Jonas, the two were just friends.

May 2018

A whole year later, a source told Us Weekly that the pair was dating. “They are dating and it’s brand new,” the insider said. “It’s a good match and they are both interested in each other.” This news was solidified over Memorial Day weekend, where the duo saw Beauty and the Beast Live in Concert at the Hollywood Bowl, attended a Dodgers game, and were spotted on a friend’s boat. Another source told People, “They’re flirtatious and have been hanging out and text all the time,” although their relationship is “very casual.” However, fans noted that Chopra and Jonas had been liking each other’s Instagram posts for months prior.

June 2018

Jonas commented, “That smile ❤️” on an Instagram of Chopra. “Burgers and Chanel…my favourite combo with my fav girls,” she captioned a meal at In-N-Out.

Chopra soon began commenting on Jonas’s posts. On a photo of the musician posing with a koala bear at an Australian zoo, she wrote, “Who is cuter?”

Next, the potential couple was spotted at JFK airport for a trip where Chopra reportedly met Jonas’s parents in New Jersey. “It’s a huge deal that Nick brought Priyanka to his cousin’s wedding,” a source close to the couple told People. “He’s dated a lot over the last couple years but it’s never been anything serious, so this is a big step.” The source added, “Nick and Priyanka really like each other, and his family enjoyed getting to know her as well. She’ll fit right in!”

On July 27, a source close to the couple told People that Jonas and Chopra were engaged in London on her 36th birthday. Jonas later clarified for Vogue that he had shut down a Tiffany & Co. in London to select the ring with his brother a few weeks earlier. He popped the question at midnight after Chopra’s birthday while in Crete.I got down on one knee, again, and I said: Will you make me the happiest man in the world and marry me?” Jonas told the outlet. “No joke—she took about 45 seconds. Forty-five seconds of silence.” Finally, the musician said, “I’m going to put this ring on your finger now unless you have any objections.”

Around that time, Us Weekly reported that the newly-engaged pair visited newlyweds Prince Harry and Chopra’s close friend, Meghan Markle at their country home.

August 2018

A couple of weeks after the engagement, a source told People that Jonas and his family were traveling to India to meet Chopra’s family. “Nick has been obsessed with Priyanka since they started dating,” the source said. “He obviously thinks she’’ beautiful, but he’s also drawn to her intelligence. She has this charisma and energy that draws you to her, and she’s fit in so well with his friends and family.”

E! ran a report that the Jonas family was traveling to India expressly for an engagement party hosted by Chopra’s family. “It’s going to be the first time that their families intermingle and get to know each other,” a source said. The insider alludes to a short engagement by saying, “Priyanka wants everything to be traditional to respect her family’s values, and definitely an Indian wedding. Priyanka and Nick are excited for everyone to meet and to celebrate. Everything is very secretive but guests are expected to head there starting tomorrow. All of the plans are moving quickly and Priyanka and Nick do not want to have a long engagement.”

On August 18, Chopra and Jonas finally confirmed their engagement by posting matching photos of them looking into each other’s eyes. Chopra’s engagement ring was on full display.

Chopra captioned her post, “Taken.. With all my heart and soul..” “Future Mrs. Jonas. My heart. My love.” Jonas captions his.

They also posted sets of photos from their familial engagement party. Chopra wrote, “The only way to do this… with Family and God. Thank you all for your wishes and blessings 🙏🏼♥️🎉” Jonas wrote, “Prayer, family and loved ones as the foundation to this new chapter. 🇮🇳” The trip also includes a visit to St. Catherine’s orphanage, which Chopra shares to social media.

Fellow husband-and-wife-to-be Joe and Turner each gave well wishes to the couple. Turner posted, “Wow. First I’m blessed with an incredible future brother-in-law, and now such an beautiful, inside and out, future sister-in-law. I’m so excited to welcome you into the family @priyankachopra. I love you both @nickjonas.”

Joe wished his younger brother well by writing, “I couldn’t be happier for my brother. Welcome to the family @priyankachopra We love you.”

At the beginning of the month, Chopra posted footage of Jonas playing soccer in Mumbai. “Bae in Bombae!! 😍” she captioned the post.

By mid-October both People and Us Weekly reported that wedding plans are well underway for Jonas and Chopra.The wedding is coming soon and they really want to blend wedding traditions from both of their cultures that are important to them,” said the Us source.“Priyanka is having a really good time planning the wedding because it’s a mix of Indian and American styles and customs, which she knows so much about.”

Chopra shared a photo of Jonas with her nephew, writing, “Nephew and boo.. 😍❤️.”

The bride-to-be capped off the month with a bachelorette party at Tiffany & Co’s Blue Box Cafe in New York City. Guests included Kelly Ripa, Lupita Nyong’o, and Kevin’s wife, Danielle.

Both Chopra and Jonas shared photos from the visit, which included a puja ceremony, a traditional spiritual event that happens before a major event, such as a wedding.

As people began to suspect that all of the festivities are a pre-wedding agenda, sources explained to Us Weekly why two high-profile friends wouldn’t be in attendance. Prince Harry and Meghan Markle were unable to travel due to the Duchess of Sussex’s pregnancy.

December 2018

On December 1, the couple tied the knot at the Umaid Bhawan Palace in Jodhpur, Rajasthan. Chopra wore a custom Ralph Lauren gown, with the designer also making a suit for Jonas. Jonas’s father officiated the Christian ceremony, per People. The following day, Indian fashion designer Sabyasachi outfitted the bride and groom for the Hindu ceremony.

“One of the most special things that our relationship has given us is a merging of families who love and respect each other’s faiths and cultures. And so planning our wedding with an amalgamation of both was so so amazing,” both captioned photos of the pre-wedding Mehendi.

The next night, both the bride and groom shared footage from the Sangeet (musical night) of the pre-wedding rituals.

On December 3, the newly married couple shared a sneak peek of their Vogue cover, where they talked in-depth about how they met, the proposal, and what’s next.

The couple shared moments from their slightly-delayed Caribbean honeymoon on social media. Jonas captioned a photo of the couple by a pool, “Mr. & Mrs. Jonas.” An E! source said that Jonas was tasked with planning the honeymoon. The insider said, “(Priyanka) had no idea it was going to be the Caribbean and Nick is planning everything for the trip, it’s all a complete surprise to Priyanka. She knew it was a honeymoon trip but didn’t find out where they were going until they landed.”

At the end of the month, the newlyweds looked in love while attending the Learning Lab Ventures Gala.

February 2019

On February 3, Chopra posted a candid photo of herself and Jonas cuddling on Super Bowl Sunday with the caption, “Home 😍.”

The picture later draw mild controversy for its seemingly staged nature. Chopra jokingly defended the post on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. She explained that her cousin Divya was the photographer, asking, “I mean, don’t you guys ever go out with friends and you’re sitting with a bunch of friends, and you do something cute and another friend takes a picture?”

During the same interview, Chopra discussed why she opted to take Jonas’s last name. “I always wanted to add his name to mine because I feel like we’re becoming family, and I’m a little traditional and old school like that,” Chopra said. “But I don’t take away my identity. He gets added to who I am.”

Chopra and Jonas also walked the red carpet together for the premiere of her movie Isn’t It Romantic.

Valentine’s Day brought reliably sweet posts from the newlyweds…

They also walked the red carpet of Vanity Fair‘s Oscars afterparty.

Finally, Chopra appeared alongside fellow #JSisters Sophie and Danielle for the “Sucker” music video. Jonas shared some behind-the-scenes footage from the shoot, writing, “Thank you to my best friend. Love of my life for being in this video. Starting this new chapter with you by my side means the world. I love you @priyankachopra.”

March 2019

In honor of the Jonas Brothers getting a number one hit song with “Sucker,” Jonas gifted Chopra with a major car. “When the hubby goes number one.. the wifey gets a @maybach!! Introducing…Extra Chopra Jonas…haha…I love you baby!! Yaaay! Best husband ever…@nickjonas 😍❤️💋,” Chopra captioned a pic of the couple in front of the car with champagne.

Chopra appeared on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen where she admitted that the host had “willed” her connection with Jonas the last time she was on the show. “You were the first one that got me really uncomfortable about it,” she joked.

The Jonas family headed to Miami for a trip—and watched the band film the music video for their single, “Cool.” Most of the getaway was spent dancing on a yacht, which was promptly shared on Instagram.

Chopra also attended her first ever Jonas Brothers concert while in Atlanta, triggering tears for all who thought they’d be Nick’s wife one day.

April 2019

While speaking at Tina Brown’s 10th Annual Women in the World Summit, Chopra admitted that she initially judged Jonas. “I’ve known him for two years,” she said. “I didn’t think that this is what it [would’ve] turned out to be, and that’s maybe that’s my fault, I judged a book by its cover. When I actually started dating Nick, he surprised me so much.” She went on to say, “He’s such an old soul, extremely smart, so good for me because he grounds me so much. I’m a wild child, I do whatever I want whenever I want and he always supports me.”

Chopra supported him right back that same month, attending a Jonas Brothers show in Pennsylvania with Danielle and Sophie.

May 2019

Chopra accompanied Jonas to the Billboard Music Awards, where the brothers reunited to perform new music. That same night, they headed to a Las Vegas wedding chapel for Sophie and Joe’s not-so-secret nuptials. (Thanks, Diplo.)

“One year ago today I went to go see Beauty and the Beast at the Hollywood bowl with a group of friends. One of those friends was the woman that would become my best friend, my confidant, my muse, my beautiful wife. I am so grateful for our journey together so far. You make me smile every day and you inspire me to be the best version of myself. I am honored to be your husband. I love you. ❤️ @priyankachopra

During an interview for InStyle, Chopra opened up about hurtful comments over her and Jonas’s ten-year age difference. “People gave us a lot of shit about that and still do,” she said. “I find it really amazing when you flip it and the guy is older, no one cares and actually people like it.”

On June 18, Chopra captioned a sweet selfie, “That kinda day.. 😍❤️💋😊💏#husbandappreciation.”

In an interview with ELLE UK, Chopra discussed how things have changed since becoming Mrs. Jonas. “I’d never realised having a husband and a boyfriend are such different things,” she said. “When you say your vows, it’s like, this person is my family, and it’s the family I chose. There’s a weird responsibility to them. And a safety that comes from it. We are learning about each other every day.”

The couple headed back to Miami for some boating and PDA-filled posts. “My 💓,” Chopra wrote alongside a photo of the couple.

“Date night cooking extravaganza,” Jonas captioned a video of himself and Chopra making pasta in Italy.

For Chopra’s birthday, Jonas shared two photos of his wife smiling for the camera, writing, “Light of my world. My whole heart. I love you baby. Happy birthday.”

Babies are seemingly on the brain for Chopra and Jonas. In an interview with Vogue India, Chopra says,”Buying a home and having a baby are on my to-do list.”

On September 16, Chopra shared a proper birthday tribute to Jonas with a montage of their love story. She captioned it, “The light of my life. Everyday with you is better than the last.

A few weeks before their wedding anniversary, Chopra surprised Jonas with an early present. She filmed herself giving her husband with a pet puppy, which they named Gino. (Naturally, the dog’s Instagram account soon followed.) “Pri came home with the absolute best surprise this morning,” Jonas wrote alongside the video, which he posted on IG. “Please meet our new pup @ginothegerman I haven’t stopped smiling since I woke up this morning and finally realized what was going on.

We feel blessed,” Chopra captioned a set of photos from their multiple wedding celebrations.

For his part, Jonas posted a single wedding photo to IG and captioned it, “One year ago today we said forever… well forever isn’t nearly long enough. I love you with all of my heart @priyankachopra happy anniversary.”

February 2020

The couple kept it fairly simple for their Valentine’s Day posts, as Jonas was busy on his Happiness Begins tour with the Jonas Brothers. Chopra shared an onstage photo of her husband with the caption, “My forever valentine. He just happens to look like GI joe in those leather pants!! 😍 #husbandappreciationpost.”

Jonas posted three black-and-white photos of the pair backstage. “My Valentine. ♥️,” he wrote alongside the pictures.

“My first Holi! ,” Jonas captioned photos from the event. “(Five days early). So much fun celebrating with such incredible people here in my second home in India. #holi

By March 20, the couple was safely back in the U.S. and sharing a fireside update on their quarantine via Instagram.

The following day, Chopra shared her own homebound Instagram post. In the photo, she and Jonas are curled up with a blanket and their pet dog, Gino.

Chopra also spoke appreciatively about her husband while on Diane Von Furstenberg’s podcast, InCharge. “We wrote like five things that we love about each other,” she told DVF of their time in quarantine. “And the first thing he said was ‘your ambition.’ I’ve never heard a guy say that.”

April 2020

Isolation fever set in for the couple as the coronavirus pandemic really took root in the U.S., and many people quarantined to slow the spread of the virus.

Both have spoken about the different hobbies they’re taking up at home. In an article written for Vogue, Chopra said Jonas had begun teaching her how to play piano. “I’ve also started the piano—I make my husband teach me,” she wrote. “I’ve never played, but I’ve always wanted to learn an instrument, so I make him give me a half-hour or 45-minute lesson every day.” Not only is Jonas her “in-house piano teacher,” but an “in-house physical trainer, and in-house writing partner,” Chopra noted. On April 25, she posted a photo of herself and her husband, writing, “Felt like wearing a saree. So I did…At home. Miss everyone. ❤️ @nickjonas.”

May 2020

However, not all of Jonas’s hobbies have been beneficial to Chopra. She made a cameo in one of his weekly The Voice happy hour videos to express disdain for her husband’s latte art. “Nick is going crazy with these latte designs,” she explained. “All he does is drink coffee all day!”

On May 25, the pair celebrated their second anniversary as a couple. Chopra shared the first selfie they ever snapped together. “2 years ago today we took our very first picture together. Every day since then you have brought me endless joy and happiness. I love you @nickjonas Thank you for making our life together so incredible. Here’s to many more date nights… ❤️😍” she wrote.

Jonas shared a photo of the twosome sporting western hats for his anniversary post. He wrote, “This beautiful woman and I went on our first date two years ago today. It has been the best two years of my life, and to think I am lucky enough to get to spend the rest of my life with her is such an incredible blessing. I love you babe. Happy two years ❤️❤️”

July 2020

Chopra offered another update on her quarantine with Jonas to British Vogue. She spoke about the challenges of being homebound for months on end and what it’s like to be away from her family in India. She told the outlet, via Entertainment Tonight, that “although it has been really, really difficult being apart from my mom and brother, who are both in India, I’m so grateful to have spent time with my husband, family and dogs, but mostly with my four year old niece, Krishna. It’s been incredible watching her discover new things.” Chopra also said she was “trying to learn the piano” from her husband.

That same month, the couple celebrated a few more events on the ‘gram. Jonas posted a sunlit photo of himself and Chopra for her latest birthday. “I could stare into your eyes forever. I love you baby. You are the most thoughtful, caring and wonderful person I have ever met. I am so grateful we found one another. Happy birthday beautiful. 🎂” he captioned the pic.

The next day, Chopra paid tribute to her husband on the second anniversary of their engagement. She shared a photo of Jonas kissing her on the cheek in front of a mirror, writing, “To the greatest joy of my life. 2 years ago on this day you asked me to marry you! I may have been speechless then but I say yes every moment of everyday since. In the most unprecedented time you made this weekend so incredibly memorable. Thank you for thinking of me all the time. I am the luckiest girl in the world! I love you @nickjonas.”

August 2020

And then the Chopra-Jonas clan welcomed a new member to the family. On August 8, the couple shared they had adopted a third dog, Panda. “Welcome to the family Panda! Panda is a Husky Australian Shepard mix rescue and we’re already in love ❤️,” Jonas wrote on his Instagram.

Chopra shared the same photo, writing, “Our new family portrait! Welcome to the family, Panda! We adopted this little rescue (soon he won’t be so little) just a few weeks ago. We can’t be sure but he seems to be a Husky Australian Shepard mix…. and those eyes… and the ears!!! ❤️😍❤️🐼❤️🐶 ” She even admitted that their dog Diana wasn’t down for the photo-op, so she was photoshopped into the portrait. “BTW @diariesofdiana wasn’t around for our little photoshoot, but we couldn’t leave our #1 girl out…so…we made it work! 😂  😉”

September 2020

On September 12, Chopra posted a sweet car selfie with Jonas, writing, “My forever guy…so grateful for you @nickjonas.”

A few days later, she posted a tribute video for Jonas’s 28th birthday. “So grateful you were born. Happy birthday my love. 😍❤️🎉 @nickjonas” Chopra captioned the post.

October 2020

The following month, Chopra announced that her memoir, Unfinished, would be hitting the shelves. Ever the supportive spouse, Jonas shared a photo of the cover to his Instagram. “So incredibly proud of you @priyankachopra quick question… can I please get a signed copy 😏 everyone go pre order my wife’s beautiful memoir now!” he wrote alongside the pic.

Chopra replied, “Only if I get an autographed copy of BLOOD! Let’s get it!! I love u babu! 😍”

May 2022

The couple welcomed their daughter Malti Marie Chopra Jonas, after she was delivered via surrogate in early 2022. Four months later on May 8, they shared their first photo of the newborn on their Instagram pages. In the picture, Chopra is holding the baby for skin-to-skin contact with Jonas at her side. The baby is in pink with a white headband featuring a bow, and her face is discreetly covered.

In the caption, they shared how Malti needed to remain in the NICU for more than 100 days, causing them a great deal of stress and worry.

“On this Mother’s Day we can’t help but reflect on these last few months and the rollercoaster we’ve been on, which we now know, so many people have also experienced,” the actress wrote. “After 100 plus days in the NICU, our little girl is finally home.”

She continued, “Every family’s journey is unique and requires a certain level of faith, and while ours was a challenging few months, what becomes abundantly clear, in retrospect, is how precious and perfect every moment is. We are overjoyed that our little girl is finally home, and just want to thank every Doctor, nurse and specialist at Rady Children’s La Jolla and Cedar Sinai, Los Angeles, who were there selflessly every step of the way. Our next chapter begins now, and our baby is truly a badass. Let’s get it MM! Mommy and Daddy love you.”

The couple has kept Malti’s face mostly private, but will occasionally share a little glimpse of her cuteness. In November, Chopra shared a shot of the 10-month-old bundled up in her car seat, with a little pink beanie partially covering her face.

Chopra captioned the image, “I mean…” along with two heart-eyed emojis.

An insider told E! News this summer that the couple are “very in love.”

The insider added, “It’s like Malti has brought them good luck with how amazing things seem for them all around right now.”

In an interview with People, Jonas reflected on the “surprisingly difficult” part of his 2018 wedding to Chopra.

“There’s this one moment in Indian weddings where the bride and groom are lifted on the shoulders of their family members and there’s sort of a game that’s played where this garland is put on each other,” he said. “They try to be the first to put the garland on the other. And it’s surprisingly difficult, especially when you have someone as competitive as me and Pri. But whoever is the one to put it on first, that side of the family is the more dominant.”

He added, “So it’s really for the family members to feel pride and that’s just a funny game. But it’s really heartwarming and a great way for the families to all connect.”

The couple had a second wedding officiated by Jonas’ dad, Kevin Jonas Sr. and Jonas said the contrasting ceremonies showed “how similar the different religions actually are and the ceremonies themselves have a lot of heart.”

“That allowed us to really connect with our families and with each other,” Jonas explained. “Which is the most important thing.”
