Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas have returned to the spot where all the romantic buzz about them started: the Met Gala. The recently-married couple are co-chairs tonight and truly dressed up for the night's Camp theme in Dior. Chopra was the star of the two, wearing a silver Dior Haute Couture dress with a feathered skirt and a thorny crown. Jonas complemented her in white suit by Dior Men.

Ahead of the event, Jonas told Entertainment Tonight that he was letting Chopra wear the statement look. "It's coming together," he said of what he was wearing to the event almost two weeks ago. "To be honest, I'm very excited, I love the Met Gala, it's always a fun night, but Priyanka will set the tone, and I'm just going to be there to support her. So I plan to keep it simple and let her shine."

Chopra and Jonas told Vogue ahead of their wedding how their first Met Gala date went. They were not officially together at the time, but they went as each other's date for Ralph Lauren. But behind the scenes, their own private romance was just starting to blossom.

The two had gotten a drink in May 2017 before going to the event together. They went to Chopra's apartment after, where her mother was, and "hung out for a couple of hours," Chopra told Vogue. “He patted my back before he left.”

Jonas purposely didn't kiss her, because her mom was there. “I thought it was a respectful first night," he told his incredulous wife ("It was too respectful if you ask me") and Vogue's reporter. They wouldn't see each other for a year after, until the May 2018 Met Gala. And that's when their relationship really took off. Two months later, they'd get engaged. And a little more than six months, in December 2018, they'd get married.

Jonas and Chopra's first red carpet was at the Billboard Music Awards. Chopra wore a Zuhair Murad white sequined dress while Jonas wore a blue and grey suit:

Before that, the two were last out together at the Vanity Fair Oscars after party in February. Priyanka wore a black gown with an embellished tulle skirt by Elie Saab, while Nick matched alongside her in a navy suit with a black bow tie.
