Priyanka Chopra Talks Marriage to Nick Jonas Amid “Really Tricky” Work Schedules

Priyanka Chopra is opening up about how she and Nick Jonas make their marriage work amid pretty intense work schedules. Speaking on InStyle‘s Ladies First With Laura Brown podcast, via People, Priyanka explained that she was away from home for an entire year working on a project—and that while she and Nick saw each other as much as possible, quarantine rules made it tough.

“We didn’t have a dramatic separation, but because he was in and out, we had to be really careful,” she explained. “He had to quarantine. I had to quarantine whenever we saw each other at that time. And that’s usually not conducive to a production schedule because you don’t really have much time. You have, like, two days off.”

“It was all really tricky, but we managed. He flew down a bunch of times; I flew down a couple of times,” she said, adding that she and Nick “talk all the time.”

“We know each other’s hearts and we prioritize each other in everything that we do. We’ve had individual careers and we’re both very clear about never interfering in each other’s professional lives because we’re always partners and assets,” Priyanka added. “We’ll have an opinion on each other’s things, we’ll be each other’s champions, but those decisions are predominantly for both of us to take, because we’ve built our careers by ourselves for such a long time.”

She continued that it’s also “very important to keep a check on another person’s heart and how they’re feeling,” adding that “my husband’s amazing at doing that. Like I said, this year was hard for me being in London. He would just drop everything—come in for even, like a day—just to have dinner with me and fly back. Stuff like that, you just have to prioritize each other and then everything feels right.”

Priyanka’s comments come after the internet was briefly under the (incorrect!) assumption that she and Nick were splitting, simply because she removed “Jonas” from her Instagram name. But she shut this narrative down pretty quickly by commenting, “Damn! I just died in your arms… 😍 🥵 ❤️” on a pic of Nick lifting weights, so nothing to see here!
