Nick Jonas and Priyanka Chopra's Relationship Timeline

He's a chart-topping American pop star. She's an Indian actress who's climbed to the top of Bollywood, earned a Miss World title, and made history in Hollywood. Together, they've become a favorite yet unlikely celebrity couple.

For Nick Jonas and Priyanka Chopra, their relationship has always been defined on their own terms. Although it progressed quickly and some criticized their 10-year age difference, the duo has proven that their love is real. From quarantining together to supporting each others' careers, today, the Jonas Brothers member and The White Tiger actress are thriving. See how it all began with this complete timeline of Jonas and Chopra's superstar romance.

Jonas made the first move in September 2016, sending Chopra a direct message on Twitter. He told her that some mutual friends had been encouraging them to meet. They continued to stay in touch.

While they did not attend together, their first public appearance was at the 2017 Vanity Fair Oscars afterparty. Jonas has since shared that when he saw Chopra enter the room he got down on one knee in front of the other partygoers and said to the Quantico star, "You're real. Where have you been all my life?"

As things were beginning to heat up between the two, Ralph Lauren invited Jonas and Chopra to wear his designs to the 2017 Met Gala. The pair showed up to the event arm in arm, although Chopra said that they were only platonic during a Jimmy Kimmel Live! interview.

Before hitting the Met Gala, the pair grabbed drinks at the Carlyle Hotel a week before the big event. Chopra also invited Jonas to visit her at home. The evening ended with Jonas patting the actress on the back. “There was no kiss. There was nothing. She’s still upset about that…Your mom was in the house! I thought it was a respectful first night," Jonas said in a 2018 Vogue interview.

The next year, relationship rumors were confirmed by a source that told Us Weekly, "They are dating and it's brand new. It's a good match and they are both interested in each other."

It then seemed that they went everywhere together. They attended Beauty and the Beast Live in Concert at the Hollywood Bowl, went to a Dodgers game, and were photographed together on a friend's boat.

In 2020, Chopra shared a throwback picture, the very first the duo ever took together, with the caption "2 years ago today we took our very first picture together. Every day since then you have brought me endless joy and happiness. I love you @nickjonas Thank you for making our life together so incredible. Here’s to many more date nights... ❤️😍"
