The Jonas Brothers are grateful for their mom’s strength.
Nearly two weeks after Nick Jonas, Joe Jonas and Kevin Jonas’ mom Denise Jonas shared she had previously suffered a basal ganglia stroke—which she said affected her cognitive thinking, speech and reasoning—the musicians gave an update on how she’s doing.
“She went through quite a journey, and we’re proud of her that she feels comfortable talking about it,” Joe told E! News’ Erin Lim Rhodes in an exclusive joint interview alongside Kevin and Nick. “I’m sure that will encourage a lot of other people out there.”
And the example that Denise is setting amid her health battle is one she has set throughout her kids’ lives.
“She’s a very strong woman, and someone that’s amazing to look up to our whole life,” Kevin continued, “and learn how to not only act around women, but also how to respect women.”
The 38-year-old added, “Our mom is our superhero, so I feel like we try to celebrate her every time we’re with her or away from her.”
And ahead of Mother’s Day, Kevin and Nick are grateful for the impact their mom and respective wives Danielle Jonas and Priyanka Chopra Jonas have made in their lives.
