  • Priyanka Chopra spills her secret to a happy marriage

    Priyanka Chopra spills her secret to a happy marriage

    Take some tips from Priyanka Chopra for a happy marriage.

    “Secret behind a good marriage?” said Chopra while speaking to Vogue Australia. “I am just two years in, so I would be able to tell you only so much. According to me, it is conversation.”

    “Actually sitting down, being able to speak to each other and spend time with each other. And actually enjoy it all,” added Chopra-Jonas.

    Priyanka got married to Nick Jonas in December 2018 in two grand ceremonies.

    When asked about how she managed to plan the “world’s most epic wedding,” Chopra said: “The secret behind [the] world’s most epic wedding was doing it in two months.”

    “Because we did not have time to think about anything. So, by the time it was done, it was just perfect, epic,” she added.

    Priyanka and Nick first got in touch via Twitter and soon started speaking to each other over text and Whatsapp. Their first meeting took place at the Vanity Fair Oscars after-party in 2017 following which they met in Los Angeles, where they watched Beauty and the Beast at the Hollywood Bowl.

    Chopra recently flew to LA from London to be by her husband’s side after he broke a rib and helped him present at the Billboard Music Awards (BMAs).

    Meanwhile, Priyanka also opened up about the failures she has faced in her professional life.

    “No one only wins. I’ve lost many battles. I’ve done many, many movies that no one has watched. It’s what you do after failures that defines you. To me, life is a ladder. It’s never a destination,” remarked the star.

    Priyanka also said that she works hard so that the generation after her wouldn’t have to.

    “We as Asians have always been taught that you’ve got to run faster than everyone to get where you’re going,” said Chopra. “I wanted to be seen as a mainstream leading lady, and not be boxed into the stereotype I saw a lot of, that required 10 years of work…and finally, I feel like I’ve been able to get to a place where I am doing that.”

    “I think the responsibility is to constantly push the goalposts, not just for yourself, but for everyone who comes after you. For the next generation of South Asian talent, I want it not to take 10 years for them to get the roles that they want,” added the actor.

    Priyanka has a string of releases lined up including Text For You co-starring Sam Heughan and Keanu Reeves’ Matrix 4. She is also working on her own production Citadel.

    Chopra reportedly flew from London to Los Angeles to help Jonas present following his accident and give him support.

    He also shared how grateful he was for the opportunity saying: “I have watched this show since I was a kid and to be asked to host was an honour.”

    “So proud of you baby. With everything you do! Your work ethic, your pursuit of excellence! You inspire me everyday! Crushed it today! I love you so much!,” she added.

    Priyanka and Nick made heads turn as they posed together on the red carpet. While Chopra wore a sheer nude plunge dress with a high leg slit by Dolce & Gabbana paired with Bulgari jewelry, Jonas looked dapper in a green Fendi suit.

    Nick Jonas has revealed that he cracked a rib and received some bumps and bruises in a recent bike accident, which also led to him being hospitalised. As per details, the singer was hospitalised over the weekend after sustaining an injury on the set of a secret project.

    When The Voice host Carson Daily asked coach Jonas about his accident on Monday’s episode and how he was feeling, Jonas said he was doing okay.

    “I’ve been better, but I’m doing all right,” said Jonas as he held his side. “Cracked rib from a spill on a bike and a few other bumps and bruises. But I just want to go ahead and say that, in case I’m not as physically enthusiastic as I usually am.”

    Turning to fellow coach Blake Shelton, Jonas requested: “Blake, please don’t make me laugh as much, because it hurts to laugh,” to which Shelton said that the singer was “just trying to get sympathy votes on the show.”
