Kevin Jonas got wife's phone number from her sister
Kevin Jonas has his sister-in-law to thank for helping him win over his wife Danielle's heart - because she refused to give the singer her number when they first met.
Danielle Deleasa caught the eye of rising pop star Kevin Jonas in 2007 while they were both on separate family vacations in the Bahamas, but the former hairdresser wanted nothing to do with the hitmaker because she was convinced it wouldn't lead to anything worthwhile.
Kevin Jonas tells PR.com, "When I met Danielle, I was the one that
was pursuing her most of the time and I didn't want her out of my
sight. She actually ran away twice."
New Jersey native Danielle explains, "He lived in L.A. (Los
Angeles), and I was on family vacation. I thought, 'I'm never going
to see this kid again, so why would I spend time away from my
family while we're on vacation?' I was like, 'Why should I waste my
time?'"
So Kevin Jonas turned to her older sister and it was only then that
he was able to woo his future wife.
Kevin Jonas adds, "I had to get her number through the sister, can
you believe that?"
The happy couple, which wed in 2009, has since landed its own
reality TV show, giving fans a glimpse into their everyday lives,
and Danielle recently admitted filming Married to Jonas has brought
them closer together.
She told People.com, "I think doing a reality show has made us talk
even more about things that maybe we would not have talked about or
just left on the backburner. I just feel like this made us
communicate more, and I think that's important in our relationship
and keeps it strong."
Married to Jonas premieres on 19 August (12).
