It was suggested last year that the restrictions imposed by the pandemic have been placing unprecedented strain on marriages, with Citizens Advice reporting a rise in divorce guidance searches.
But Priyanka Chopra – who is currently experiencing lockdown in the UK with husband Nick Jonas – has insisted that being forced to stay home with her other half has actually been beneficial for their relationship.
Priyanka Chopra has called cultural differences and age-gap between her and Nick Jonas ‘not a hurdle’ in a new interview. The actor, who recently finished shoot of her film Text For You in London, said that Nick took to Indian culture like fish to water.
In an interview with The Sunday Times, the 38-year-old actor was asked whether the 10-year age gap between herself and Nick, 28, was a bigger “gap to bridge than any cultural differences”. The actor said neither was a hurdle. “Nick took to India like a fish to water. But just like a normal couple, you have to understand each other’s habits and what each other likes. So it’s more of an adventure than trying to figure out hurdles. None of it was really that hard,” she said.
Nick and Priyanka married in India in December 2018 in twin ceremonies that honoured both their roots. “It’s so comforting to find a person who is in your corner. Whatever I may be in my professional life or how the world perceives me, I’m just a girl trying to live her life in the best way possible, and I’m so grateful to have a partner in doing that,” she added.
