The Jonas Brothers' Kids: All About Nick, Kevin, & Joe's Families
The Jonas Brothers are celebrating 20 years as a professional band in 2025, and they aren't slowing down even a little bit. They just kicked off their Jonas20: Greetings from Your Hometown Tour and are the inaugural guests on Songs & Stories with Kelly Clarkson, a new four-episode-long NBC special hosted by Clarkson in which she sings and has candid discussions with popular artists about their careers. RELATED: Joe, Nick, and Kevin Jonas have been around the career block, both as a band and solo artists. They've toured the globe multiple times, released seven albums as the Jonas Brothers, and have appeared as themselves in countless film and television projects. (Nick also acts!) Even with their multitude of pursuits, in 2025, it's safe to say they're all firmly committed to their parenting chapters too, as each brother has officially added 'dad' to their list of responsibilities. Read more about the Jonas Brothers' families, below: Nick Jonas and Priyanka Chopra In December 2018, Nick married actress Priyanka Chopra at the Umaid Bhawan Palace, Jodhpur. And since then, professionally, the pair collaborate regularly on projects as producers and performers. However, their greatest collaboration came in 2022 with the birth of their daughter Malti Marie Chopra Jonas via surrogate. In a recent episode of Mythic Kitchen with the three brothers, Nick told host Chef Josh Scherer that having a child has made him more focused on building something his daughter will be proud of. RELATED: 'You're met with this reality that this little human being will depend on you at least until they're 18, hopefully, for the rest of their life. And that responsibility is a profound thing,' he explained. 'Prior to that, I think I was just focused on sort of benchmarks of success, or perceived benchmarks of success. And now I have a more tangible thing to base my decision-making off of. And everything is better too once you are doing it for that reason and you get to experience life again through the eyes of a child." Joe Jonas Joe Jonas shares two daughters with ex Sophie Turner, Willa and Delphine. On the Jonas Brothers episode of Amy Poehler's podcast Good Hang, Joe said he's gotten to really understand how hard his own mom had it parenting four boys. 'Boys are so different than girls,' he said. 'I'll watch my kids on the playground and it's, like, delicate. And then this kid will be like, 'Ahh!' And dive off the top of the slide. And you're just like, 'That is a boy.'" Kevin Jonas and Danielle Deleasa This December, Kevin and Danielle celebrate 16 years of marriage. Kevin was the first of the trio to tie the knot. They have put down roots in the Jonas' birth state of New Jersey, where they live with their two young daughters, Alena Rose and Valentina Angelina. Kevin was also the first of the brothers to become a dad. He and Danielle have released two children's books together, There's a Rock Concert in My Bedroom and There's a Beach in My Bedroom; the former was inspired by their daughters. "Now our daughters, Alena and Valentina, enrich our lives in ways we could have never anticipated," Kevin told People in September 2021. "The love and care they show each other on a daily basis inspired this story and we are so proud to share how these girls not only uplift us and each other, but are creative, caring rock stars in their own right." Songs & Stories With Kelly Clarkson premieres August 19 at 10/9c on NBC. Subsequent one-hour episodes air August 26, September 2, and September 9 on NBC. All four episodes will be available to stream on Peacock the day after they air. Solve the daily Crossword

Kelly Clarkson Returns to Instagram 12 Days After Ex's Death
Kelly Clarkson Returns to Instagram 12 Days After Ex's Death originally appeared on Parade. Kelly Clarkson returned to Instagram — unofficially — on Aug. 19. She — or someone on her team — took to her Instagram Stories to share a promo for a new series that will begin airing tonight. "Tonight's the night," read a message added to the promo. This is the first time that Clarkson's social media has been active since the tragic death of her ex-husband — and the father of her two children — Brandon Blackstock. Clarkson will be back on television for a new special called Songs & Stories. The premiere episode of the pre-recorded four part series will air on Aug. 19 on NBC. The show will also be available for streaming the next day on Peacock. The television special was inspired by Clarkson's talk show segment by the same name. View this post on Instagram A post shared by NBC Entertainment (@nbc) "Every song's got a story, and this special gives us a chance to hear what's behind the music straight from the artists who lived it. Getting to share the stage with them and hear about the moments that shaped their paths — and where they're headed next — is pretty special,' Clarkson said in a press release ahead of the premiere. Each week, Clarkson will interview an artist and then she will perform with them. The Jonas Brothers will join Clarkson on Tuesday night's premiere. In the upcoming three weeks, Clarkson will chat with Gloria Estefan (Aug. 26), Teddy Swims (Sept. 2), and Lizzo (Sept. 9). "From chart-toppers to personal stories, the Jonas Brothers are kicking off #NBCSongsAndStories with Kelly Clarkson," read the caption of a post uploaded to the official NBC Instagram page. Overall, fans seem excited for the series. "Yassssss can't wait!!!" one person commented on NBC's promo post. "This is going to be great," someone else said. "Not going to miss this," a third comment read. Since the series was pre-recorded, it's unlikely that Clarkson will discuss anything that's happened in her personal life over the past two weeks. Kelly Clarkson Returns to Instagram 12 Days After Ex's Death first appeared on Parade on Aug 19, 2025 This story was originally reported by Parade on Aug 19, 2025, where it first appeared.

Kelly Clarkson Returns to Television in the Wake of Ex-Husband Brandon Blackstock's Tragic Death
Kelly Clarkson is stepping back into the spotlight less than two weeks after her ex-husband Brandon Blackstock passed away. The first episode of the 43-year-old singer-songwriter's NBC special Songs & Stories will premiere at 10 p.m. on Tuesday, August 19. As Star previously reported, the four-part pre-recorded special features the 'Miss Independent' songstress having 'unfiltered' conversations with a different musician/musical group each week, starting with the Jonas Brothers on Tuesday, according to the NBC website. In the following weeks, the American Idol alum will sit down with Gloria Estefan, Lizzo and Teddy Swims. Per NBC, viewers will also get to see musical performances in an 'intimate, unplugged setting.' As for the Grammy Award winner's other TV commitments, Star reported last week that Clarkson is allegedly going to be missing filming dates for season 29 of The Voice. 'Kelly will not be at the tapings scheduled next week for Thursday and Friday,' a source told The Sun in an article published Thursday, August 14. 'Production is working on a replacement coach for her now.' However, TMZ confirmed earlier this month that The Kelly Clarkson Show will be back for its seventh season this fall, with new episodes debuting in September. Clarkson's television appearance comes shortly after Blackstock died at 48 years old on Thursday, August 7. The former talent manager — who shares kids River, 11, and Remington, 9, with Clarkson — lost his three-year battle with melanoma.
