Nick Jonas and Priyanka Chopra are couple goals! The two superstars got married back in 2018, and their union was under scrutiny for several reasons. The actress has opened up about how criticism over their intercultural relationship, age gap, and backgrounds was deeply hurtful. Reflecting on eight years together, the actor shared that instead of focusing on public opinion, they chose to lean on each other.
Priyanka Chopra on gossip around wedding with Nick Jonas
In a recent interview with Variety, Chopra addressed the gossip surrounding her relationship and said, “We’re eight years in. If people want to keep waiting for it to implode, that’s their choice. I stopped thinking about it. I don’t know what it was about us that rubbed people the wrong way. I think there was the intercultural nature of it — different countries, different religions, age gap. It was very hurtful. And we both, instead of looking out, just sort of looked at each other, and we were like, ‘It doesn’t matter.’ So it’s like water off a duck’s back now.”
Reflecting on how quickly their relationship progressed, she shared, “We got married really quickly, within six months of meeting. When I first married him, I didn’t know if it was even real — this part of him — because I was like, this is crazy. This is put on. But Nick has this absolute sincerity. It inspires me every day in a profession which requires you to pivot and become whatever you need to put on.”
Heaping praise on hubby Nick, she gushed, “He’s constantly sincere. His whole day, whatever the conversation is, he is sincere. He started working when he was really young. His parents are the most wonderful, levelheaded, absolute saints, so I can see where it comes from. But it’s such a disarming quality about him.”
