Priyanka Chopra Jonas and Nick Jonas welcomed their first child, a daughter, via surrogate back in January — and now TODAY can confirm the name of the couple’s baby girl:
Malti Marie Chopra Jonas.
The couple, who tied the knot in December 2018 in separate Christian and Hindu ceremonies, announced their daughter’s arrival on Jan. 21 with a joint statement on Instagram.
“We are overjoyed to confirm that we have welcomed a baby via surrogate. We respectfully ask for privacy during this special time as we focus on our family,” the statement said.
Malti is a Sanskrit name that means small, fragrant flower or moonlight.
Jonas, 29, popped the question to the Indian-born “White Tiger” star, 39, in the summer of 2018 while the pair were vacationing on the Greek island of Crete.
Three years later, they treated fans to never-before-seen photos from the proposal on Instagram.
Chopra Jonas posted a close-up pic of the couple gazing into one another’s eyes. The shot also showed the two holding hands, giving fans a birds’ eye view of her stunning Tiffany & Co. engagement ring.
“My everything.. 3 years today,” she wrote alongside the pic. “Seems like a blink and a lifetime at the same time. I love you.”
