I’m sharing my signs so that others can #SeeTheSigns," Jonas captioned the clip. "Join me and share yours #SeeTheSigns #T1D #WorldDiabetesDay @beyondtype1."

An outspoken advocate for diabetes health and awareness, Jonas spoke with ET's Cassie DiLaura in May about how his wife has been by his side as he navigated his condition since the beginning of their relationship, telling ET that his health was "one of the first things we spoke about."
"It's such a big part of my life and has been for so long that, obviously, it was something that I wanted to share with her and include her in that journey," Jonas added at the time.
As for his 9-month-old daughter Malti, the new dad said that fatherhood "has changed everything! For the better, of course!"
For Jonas, managing his condition has been a journey, adding that the most important thing about health is "doing whatever you can to take care of yourself. And you'll never get it right 100 percent of the time, but I do my best."
