# Nick Jonas' Heart-Wrenching Revelation: How Priyanka Chopra and He Fought for Their Daughter's Life in the NICU Imagine welcoming your newborn daughter into the world, only to watch her fight for survival at just 1 pound, 11 ounces—purple and premature. That's the **traumatic birth story** Nick Jonas bravely shared for the first time, detailing daughter Malti Marie's three-and-a-half-month NICU battle.[1] In a raw interview on the *Jay Shetty* podcast, the Jonas Brothers star opened up about the chaos that unfolded in January 2022. Expecting Malti in April, Nick and Priyanka Chopra Jonas got an urgent call: their surrogate-delivered baby arrived three months early. "She came into the world under sort of very intense circumstances," Nick recounted, crediting NICU "angels" who resuscitated her immediately.[1] Malti, smaller than Priyanka's hand, endured **six blood transfusions** and fought daily to gain weight, finally coming home after 100 grueling days.[1][2] The couple tag-teamed through the COVID-era restrictions with **12-hour hospital shifts**, a routine Nick still recalls viscerally—the comforting yet frightening hospital smells amid other families' struggles.[1] Priyanka echoed the terror in her own *British Vogue* interview, praising the nurses' "God's work" in intubating their tiny fighter and honoring their surrogate's generosity.[2] Today, Malti thrives, with Nick sensing her innate gratitude: "She's incredible."[1] This story isn't just celebrity headlines—it's a testament to parental resilience, medical miracles, and the unspoken heroism of NICU staff. It reminds us how fragility and strength coexist in the earliest moments of life.
