Nick Jonas and Priyanka Chopra have married in a Christian ceremony at a royal palace in India.

The Bollywood superstar and the Texan singer, formerly part of the Jonas Brothers, wed before family and friends in Jodhpur's Umaid Bhavan Palace.

People magazine said the ceremony was officiated by Jonas's father Paul Kevin Jonas. The couple will have a traditional Hindu ceremony on Sunday.

Jonas and Chopra became engaged four months ago after dating for a year.

They both confirmed the wedding had taken place on their respective social media accounts.

They said "one of the special things" about their relationship was the merging of their families, faiths and cultures "and so planning our wedding with an amalgamation of both was so so amazing".

Jonas, 26, and Chopra, 36, are believed to have first started dating around the time of the Met Gala in May 2017. They got engaged in London just over a year later.

Chopra won the Miss World pageant in 2000 and went on to make more than 50 films in India, becoming one of Bollywood's highest-paid actresses.
