Nick Jonas and wife Priyanka Chopra welcome surprise baby via surrogate

Nick Jonas and wife Priyanka Chopra have welcomed a surprise baby via surrogate.

The couple, who wed in 2018 in a lavish ceremony in Delphi, both announced the news via their Instagram pages on Friday, gushing that they were "overjoyed".

They revealed: "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."

Friends of musician Nick, 29, and actress Priyanka, 39, rushed to the comments to congratulate them on the happy news.

One wrote: "Omg HUGE CONGRAAAAAATS WOW WOW WOW."

While another commented: "Congratulationnnnnnn guysssss can’t believe."

Priyanka and Nick's love story first began in 2016 when Nick slid into her DMs after suggesting that a few of their mutual friends had suggested they meet.

The pair went on to enjoy some flirty texts, but didn't meet in person until nearly a year later at the 2017 Vanity Fair Oscar party.

Yet it wasn't until a year later that the couple went on an official date to the cinema together to see Beauty and the Beast.

Dating rumour continued to swirl a couple of months later in August, the couple shocked the world by announcing that they were engaged.

Nick had got down on one knee and asked Priyanka to marry him the day after her birthday in Crete, proposing with a £147,000 ($200,000) diamond-encrusted Tiffany ring.

The couple wed in December that year in a glitzy ceremony in Delhi before heading off for a romantic mini-moon in Oman.

They went on to have a second and third wedding reception in Mumbai, then going to jet off to their proper honeymoon in the Carbbean.

Following their special holiday, they had yet another wedding celebration in the States at Nellie’s Southern Kitchen in North Carolina, the Jonas's family restaurant.

Last year, Priyanka opened up about her reaction to her husband's proposal, telling Elle UK: "I didn’t expect the proposal at that point...It was two months.

"I thought it would happen, but it was still a complete shock. [But] I relinquished control and I just went with it. We were just sporadically meeting for about two years.

"We were texting and stuff, and there may have been a part of me that wanted something serious. But I was taking a hiatus from guys at that point. I didn’t want anyone romantically. But there’s always been something about Nick, which is why we always ended up staying in touch, no matter where we were.

"One thing to know about my husband is that when he makes up his mind, he’ll get what he wants! When he knows, he knows. There’s such a sublime confidence to it that you can’t help but be like, 'OK'."
