The couple announced that their little girl had come home in the Instagram post.

”On this Mother’s Day we can’t help but reflect on these last few months and the rollercoaster we’ve been on, which we now know, so many people have also experienced. After 100 plus days in the NICU, our little girl is finally home.”

The Quantico star went on to say, “Every family’s journey is unique and requires a certain level of faith, and while ours was a challenging few months, what becomes abundantly clear, in retrospect, is how precious and perfect every moment is.”

Priyanka Chopra took the time to thank the medical staff who helped their little girl come home.

“We are overjoyed that our little girl is finally home, and just want to thank every doctor, nurse, and specialist at Rady Children’s La Jolla and Cedar Sinai, Los Angeles, who were there selflessly every step of the way.”

She ended the post with, “Our next chapter begins now, and our baby is truly a badass. Let’s get it MM! Mommy and Daddy love you.” The couple ended the post with a thank you to all of the caretakers in their lives.

In January 2017, it had been a week since Priyanka Chopra suffered an accident on the set of her drama series “Quantico,” but the actress appeared to be back in good spirits at the 43rd People’s Choice Awards in Los Angeles.

“I was a little nervous… I didn’t know if I would make it, but I got so bored sitting on my couch for three days,” she said about her injury.

Chopra had to be hospitalized after suffering a concussion when she slipped and fell during the filming of her ABC thriller drama television series.

“I was supposed to be saving someone, as usual, Alex Parrish-style,” Priyanka added. “The doctors said another couple of days, and I should be okay.”

The then-34-year-old actress looked sensational in a peach-colored ensemble from Sally LaPointe’s Spring 2017 collection.

The Indian beauty showed just the right amount of flesh, pairing a strapless dipped-hem top with a matching fringe skirt.

Defeating Ellen Pompeo, Kerry Washington, Taraji P. Henson, and Viola Davis, Priyanka was named Favorite Dramatic TV Actress at the event. When she took to the stage to accept her trophy, she gave a short speech to the audience.

“This has been an incredible journey,” she said. “Every single woman that was nominated with me today, all of these incredible actresses, were the reason I joined television.”

Priyanka let her outfit take center stage. She kept her accessories to a minimum, opting for just a pair of earrings and silver heels.

She rounded out her look with voluminous waves, a swipe of pink lipstick, and well-defined eyebrows.
