Jahangir had more than one wife. Man Bai, daughter of Raja Bhagwan Das, was his first and favorite wife. Unfortunately she committed suicide in grief at Khusrau's behavior and the misconduct of her brother Madhu Singh in 1605. Jodh Bai (mother of Shah Jahan) and Sahib-i-Jamal (mother of Parveiz) were some of his other wives. In May 1611, Jahangir married Nur Jahan. Gradually she became his chief wife and virtual ruler of the Kingdom.
