It's an emotional time for the star, who recently opened up in an interview with British Vogue about all things motherhood, including the emotional journey to getting Malti in their lives.
Priyanka and Nick Jonas announced that they'd welcomed their daughter a year ago via surrogacy, although due to her being born a full trimester early, she remained in the NICU for 100 days.

She also got emotional when mentioning how they dealt with their daughter being in the hospital for so long, with only the couple being able to visit.
