Olivia Culpo has opened up about her life after her break up with Nick Jonas, admitting she couldn’t even afford groceries.
The model confessed she had no idea how she was going to support herself financially after their split.
But before we get into that story, let’s have a look at Jonas’ current relationship with Priyanka Chopra…
The couple became parents for the first time back in January, after Chopra expressed her desire to become a mom a year earlier…
She told Tatler Magazine back in 2020: “It is something that I definitely want to do and I’m hoping that whenever God wills it, at the right, opportune time, it’ll happen.”
And not long after, their baby was born via surrogate.
Their baby daughter, Malti Marie, was born in a southern Californian hospital.
Malti Marie was born twelve weeks early and had to stay in the hospital until she was healthy enough to return home with her parents.
The couple, who tied the knot back in 2018, surprised their fans with news of their expanding family.
They did so with a statement reading:
“We are overjoyed to confirm that we have welcomed a baby via surrogate. We respectfully ask for privacy during this special time as we focus on our family. Thank you so much.”
And now, “After 100 plus days in the NICU, our little girl is finally home,” the pair said in a joint statement along with a photo of their daughter.
“On this Mother’s Day we can’t help but reflect on these last few months and the rollercoaster we’ve been on, which we now know, so many people have also experienced,” they wrote on their Instagram page on Mother’s Day.
Both Chopra and Jonas recognized that “every family’s journey is unique and requires a certain level of faith” and shared how their journey has made them realize “how precious and perfect every moment is.”
“We are overjoyed that our little girl is finally home, and just want to thank every doctor, nurse, and specialist at Rady Children’s La Jolla and Cedar Sinai, Los Angeles, who were there selflessly every step of the way,” they added.
In concluding their post, they wrote: “Our next chapter begins now, and our baby is truly a bada**. Let’s get it MM! Mommy and Daddy love you.”
The new mom then wrote to her husband: “There is no one I’d rather do this with than you. Thank you for making me a mama @nickjonas I love you.”
Jonas repeated the sentiment in his post, writing to his wife: “Babe, you inspire me in every way, and you are taking to this new role with such ease and steadiness.”
“I am so grateful to be on this journey with you,” he added. “You are already an incredible mother. Happy Mother’s Day. I love you.”
A source told People that Jonas and Chopra were “thrilled” to have their daughter home.
“Their daughter is doing well,” the insider shared. “She is still tiny, but catching up every day. They both just want to hold and snuggle her. They are already great parents.”
Jonas has also spoken about his new role as a dad…
He told the Today show on Monday morning that “life is beautiful.”
“She’s a gift and we’re just so blessed,” Jonas added of his daughter, Malti.
When asked about his brother’s children, he joked: “The Jonas family keeps growing.”
“There’s a lot of girls,” Jonas said. And he’s not wrong…
Kevin, the oldest brother, has 2 daughters, Alena, 8, and Valentina, 5, whereas Joe has one daughter, Willa, 1, but is expecting another baby with Sophie Turner.
Jonas shared that his mom and dad are “thrilled” to have “four beautiful granddaughters.”
Congratulations to the happy couple!
Let’s hope that all goes well for the Jonas / Chopra family.

However, their 2-year relationship came to an end in 2015.
After the breakup, Culpo admitted she had financial issues and was left wondering how she was going to pay off her rent and buy groceries.
The thirty-year-old now has her own reality show titled The Culpo Sisters and has spoken about the struggles.
Whilst talking to producers, Culpo was reluctant to talk about her relationship with Jonas.
“I did date Nick and that was a very formative experience for me,” Culpo said.
“I moved to L.A. with him. I had no brand, no money and I was in love. That was great, right?”
She added: “But when he broke up with me, I was kind of left with no sense of identity.”
“My whole identity was in him, which is a very common story of a young person in love.
“I thought we were going to get married — I thought all the things.
“I just remember night after night looking up at my ceiling in my apartment that I couldn’t afford, thinking to myself, ‘How am I going to pay my rent?'” Culpo said.
She continued: “I couldn’t even afford my groceries.
“It was a serious, pivotal moment for me, but it was something that taught me that you can’t give up.”
Since her relationship ended with Jonas, Culpo went on to find love again with football player Christian McCaffrey.
