Priyanka Chopra is garnering acclaim for her role in “Heads Of State” and also delights fans with her charming relationship with husband Nick Jonas. Recently, she shared a humorous and somewhat awkward anecdote from the early days of their romance, detailing how a surprise late-night visit almost derailed their budding relationship.
During an appearance on the “Not Gonna Lie” podcast with Kylie Kelce, Priyanka recounted how she had just met Nick after the 2017 Met Gala and decided to introduce him to her mother, Madhu Chopra. However, she neglected to inform her mother about the unexpected 1 am visit. Priyanka recalled, “We were at the Carlyle and it was closing. I told him, ‘My mom’s home. She might be awake.’” Despite that warning, the meeting turned out to be anything but smooth.
Caught off guard while watching “Law & Order: SVU,” Madhu was less than thrilled about the unexpected company. Priyanka humorously described her mother’s reaction as furious: “She ran to her bedroom and was like, ‘You should have told me.’” The encounter was particularly tense since Priyanka arrived 45 minutes late, turning their simple get-together into a memorable family moment.
After the awkward first meeting, Priyanka was convinced that she had been “friend-zoned” due to Nick’s lack of romantic gestures, as she perceived a mere hug as a platonic farewell. However, their relationship blossomed over time, with the couple exchanging texts for nearly a year before officially dating in 2018. Their love story culminated in an engagement in July 2018 and a lavish wedding in India just five months later.
Now, as proud parents to their daughter, Malti Marie, who was born via surrogacy in January 2022, Priyanka shares delightful insights into their family life. Malti is already showcasing her playful personality, often raiding her mother’s “magic closet” and giving quirky nicknames to her uncles, Joe and Kevin Jonas. The joy of parenthood seems to have brought them even closer together, further solidifying their relationship as a power couple in Hollywood.
This charming story not only highlights the rocky start of Priyanka and Nick’s romance but also serves as a reminder that love can flourish even after unexpected hurdles. Their journey together is a testament to resilience and connection, leaving fans hopeful about the future of their relationship and family life.
