Watch: Why Nick Jonas Wanted Daughter Malti and Wife Priyanka in His New MovieNick Jonas and Priyanka Chopra's daughter is a fighter. The "Jealous" singer emotionally reflected on their daughter Malti Marie's harrowing first moments after her premature birth in January 2022. "She came to the world under sort of very intense circumstances, which I've not really talked about ever," the "Gut Punch" singer shared in a Feb. 4 interview on the On Purpose with Jay Shetty podcast. "But we were expecting her to arrive in April of the year she was born and we get a call that it's gonna be sooner. So, we basically went into action and she was born via surrogate." "We got to the hospital, and she came out, she was one pound, 11 ounces," the Jonas Brothers member added. "And purple basically. They-these angels at the NICU, kind of resuscitated her in that moment and got her taken care of really quickly and intubated and everything else." Nick, 33, revealed that he and Priyanka traded 12-hour shifts at the hospital, where Malti spent the first three months of her life receiving around the clock care and treatment before making a full recovery.readWhy Nick Jonas Wanted Daughter Malti and Wife Priyanka in His New Movie"But she fought every day for three and a half months," Nick-who married Priyanka in 2018-said. "And, you know, slowly started to gain some weight. And after six blood transfusions, she was doing great and we got to take her home." Still, four years later, Nick has memories of Malti's time of recovering in the hospital. "I could still sort of like, smell it," he said. "There's always visceral things. It was both comforting and frightening to be there every day, and to see sort of other families going through similar situations."InstagramToday, the "Close" singer's daughter exhibits the same strength she showed previously. "I feel like she knows how she entered the world and what that first chapter of her life was like," he said. "And so every day is a gift, and you can actually feel it on her in the way that she behaves and how exciting everything is." "I don't know how much she remembers," he added. "Probably nothing, spiritually I believe that there's gratitude in her and that she's incredible." For Nick, seeing Malti live out her toddler years has been an emotional blessing. "Our daughter's incredible, she's just, she's magic in every sense of the world," he said through tears. "She just turned four a couple weeks ago. It blows my mind, I look at her and I can see her future. I just know she's going to do amazing things, and I'm awestruck that I get to experience her magic. She's just perfect in every way."For more on Nick and Priyanka's little lovebug Malti Marie, keep reading...
