Priyanka Chopra recently shared a heartwarming post on Instagram. She showed new pictures of her daughter, Malti Marie, enjoying time in New York City. The photos came in a carousel celebrating the month of May. They featured Malti with her parents, Nick Jonas and Priyanka, along with family and friends during their NYC outing.
In some images, Malti plays with other children at a playground. In others, she is doing art projects with her pals. One very cute picture shows Malti applying makeup from a bright palette. In some pictures, she walks holding her dad’s hand.
Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas live in New York for now, with Nick performing on Broadway. They are soaking up family time with Malti. Priyanka and Nick use Instagram to share bits of their private life, but not too often. So this recent post gave fans a sweet peek at what their life looks like right now. The couple welcomed Malti via surrogate in January 2022. When they first announced her birth, they shared that she spent her first 100 days in the NICU after a tough start.
Many sweet and playful moments of Priyanka Chopra in the city
One photo shows the family on a boat near Manhattan. You can see the Statue of Liberty in the background. Malti sits happily between her mom and dad. Other pictures show her playdates and her dad helping with nail and makeup sets.

She also had fun with family. A photo with Joe Jonas and Malti at a taco spot in Brooklyn makes it clear she loves time with her uncle. Fans loved seeing that bond. Priyanka’s caption on Instagram was simple: “May”, and a handful of emojis. Priyanka has often said Malti has a big personality. She told ELLE in 2023,
"She’s got me wrapped around her finger. I don’t even know how I’ll ever discipline her because I just don’t have it in me."
Early health journey, family support, and priorities
Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas' journey as parents started with big challenges. Malti was born early. She spent 100 days in the NICU. Priyanka Chopra also shared that her own mother, grandmother, and aunts helped her shape her view of motherhood. She said:
“I’ve had incredible influences of moms in my life, and now with my mother-in-law [Denise Miller-Jonas] who’s this epic, amazing woman. I’ve not been a mom long enough to be able to take the celebration, but I love to celebrate the moms in my life on Mother’s Day.”
In just a few pictures, Priyanka Chopra, Nick Jonas, and little Malti left fans with big smiles. The photos show a family full of love, caring for each other, and enjoying simple moments in NYC. Seeing Malti paint, play, explore, and learn gives a glimpse into how the Jonas‑Chopra family lives now. They treasure every milestone, every smile, and every learning moment.
