Ever since Kevin Jonas burst onto the scene as one-third of the popular band Jonas Brothers (which includes him and his brothers Joe Jonas and Nick Jonas), he's been a well-known face in the music industry. Amid a busy career, he's been lucky to have his wife Danielle Jonas (née Deleasa) at his side.

Kevin and Danielle's love story starts out a bit differently than most Hollywood romances. The two first met back in May 2007, when they each were vacationing with their families in the Bahamas. At the time, Danielle was working as a hairstylist and she had no idea of the Claim to Fame host's star status.

"I didn’t know who the Jonas Brothers were," she admitted to People in July 2009.

As most great love stories go, the rest was history for Kevin and Danielle. The two immediately hit it off and dated for almost two years. In July 2009, the former boybander proposed to Danielle outside of her home in New Jersey. She said yes, and by December of that year, the two wed in a romantic ceremony at Oheka Castle on Long Island, New York. The two not only had 400 guests there to celebrate their love, but Kevin later celebrated the couple's anniversary with a heartfelt romantic post on Instagram.

"Love of my life forever and always," he wrote in December 2021 featuring a photo of them walking down the aisle. "Happy 12 years @daniellejonas."

In July 2012, Kevin and Danielle gave folks a glimpse into wedded bliss with the premiere of their E! Network series Married to Jonas. The show ran for two seasons and it focused on balancing their work and family life, which at that point was just the two of them. While the series eventually got cancelled in 2013, they had a surprise awaiting them: they were expecting their first child.

"It's true @daniellejonas is pregnant!" Kevin wrote on X (formerly Twitter) in July 2013. "Can't even imagine how excited we are I can't wait to share this with my best friend. I love you baby."

Kevin and Danielle welcomed their daughter Alena Rose in February 2014, and by October 2016, the couple announced the birth of their second daughter, Valentina Angelina.

In March 2019, the Jonas Brothers got the band back together after a six-year split. Fans got to see Danielle involved in Kevin's music career in an interesting way. She starred in the music videos for "Sucker"and "What a Man Gotta Do"(which also saw Nick's wife Priyanka Chopra and Joe's ex-wife Sophie Turner) and she frequently was seen with her daughters at Kevin's concerts. Their marriage remained stronger than ever, as Kevin made sure to pay a romantic Instagram tribute to Danielle when their 10th wedding anniversary occurred later that year.

"My wife of ten years. My best friend of twelve years. The love of my life," he captioned the post. "I can not explain how amazing it is to look back on our journey together and to see how much we have grown together! You help me see my true potential in all things. You make me better, stronger, and show me what love is every day. So what I will say to my best friend, mother of my children, and forever love. This is just the beginning, we haven’t even started our journey and I can not wait for the next 10 and then the next. I love you to the moon and back."

If there's one thing to know about Kevin and Danielle's road to romance, it's one that comes with a lot of moving parts. But amid balancing work and home life, Kevin did note how appreciative he is for his wife being a big support system while he's on tour.

"[Danielle] understands my rest schedule along with my ability to do the honey-do list when I am home," he told People in October 2021. "Luckily she knows how to hold it all down."

"I do the best I can to always include them in everything we do and make them understand that what we get to do is very special," he added about his two daughters. "At the same time, life at home is just as special. It's a hard balance to find, but they know that when I'm home, I'm home with them. It's about putting the phone down. It's about taking that time and taking the moments."

We absolutely love them together!
