Nick Jonas first shot to fame as one-third of the Jonas Brothers, the Disney-backed pop band formed with his siblings Kevin and Joe. Together, they ruled the 2000s teen pop scene, starring in Disney Channel movies, topping the charts, and packing out stadiums worldwide. But Nick quickly proved he wasn’t just another boy band idol. With solo hits like “Jealous” and “Chains,” he showcased a moodier, soulful side, carving out his own spot in pop music and showing fans he was built for more than tween stardom.
He’s never limited himself to just music. Nick’s also an accomplished actor, taking on Broadway roles as a kid and growing into more mature parts in TV shows and movies. It’s this willingness to step outside of his comfort zone – whether he’s playing a boxer in “Kingdom” or lighting up the stage – that’s helped him stay relevant, even as musical tastes have changed since his Disney days.
Despite growing up under relentless public scrutiny, Nick’s managed to stay surprisingly grounded. He’s been honest about his journey with Type 1 diabetes, a diagnosis he got as a child. Instead of hiding it, he’s used his platform to bring awareness to the condition, frequently talking about the challenges and refusing to be defined by them.
Of course, it’s not just his music or acting that lands Nick in the headlines – it’s his relationships, too. His love life has played out partly in public by default, but he’s always handled it with an unusual sense of maturity for someone who found fame so young.
Today, Nick is married to actress and global star Priyanka Chopra Jonas. Their whirlwind romance was the stuff of tabloid dreams: they began dating in May 2018, were engaged within weeks, and tied the knot in an extravagant, cross-cultural wedding before the year was out. The festivities pulled together Western and Indian traditions, celebrating Priyanka’s roots and making the event as much about family and heritage as celebrity glamour.
Before Priyanka, Nick’s romantic track record included several well-known names. He dated Olivia Culpo, former Miss Universe, from 2013 to 2015 – a relationship that inspired his hit “Jealous.” There were also brief but much-gossiped-about links with Kendall Jenner and Kate Hudson. As with most celebrity couplings, rumors swirled, but Nick rarely dished on personal details and avoided the drama that can come with such high-profile relationships.
As Nick’s gotten older, his approach to love seems to have shifted from the more carefree days of his youth to something much more intentional. In 2018, he told Vogue, “Love is about finding someone who makes you better and you make them better.” There’s a sense that’s exactly what he’s found with Priyanka, as the two continue to support each other’s careers and build a life that bridges continents and cultures.
In January 2022, Nick and Priyanka became parents to their daughter, Malti Marie, born via surrogate. Their early days as parents were kept mostly private – especially since Malti spent her first 100-plus days in the NICU. But when they have chosen to share their journey, it’s been with a mix of honesty and gratitude, never playing for attention.

Unlike some celebs, Nick’s never been one to air out dirty laundry or seek headlines by talking about former relationships. Instead, he’s opted for privacy and respect – a rarity for someone who’s been in the spotlight since childhood and proof that, even for a pop star, you can grow wiser with age.
