Priyanka Chopra recently explored the cultural contrasts between her and her husband Nick JonasAfter six years of marriage, they shed light on how they have found a harmonious balance. Priyanka Chopra Even though she shared it and Nick Jonas Coming from large families, their upbringing varied in terms of cultural influences, requiring a process of adapting and understanding each other’s backgrounds. During a conversation with the Read the Room podcast, Priyanka talked about their mutual appreciation of each other’s countries and willingness to immerse themselves in each other’s cultures.

Priyanka later shared how an Indian family like hers would “talk over each other’s sentences” but that was not the case with Nick’s family. She said it was “really hard” for her to learn such things. She said, “Before you finish your sentence, I know what you’re saying, so I’m going to tell you. How we are culturally.”

Priyanka added, “We were just like, ‘Let’s go!’ That’s how we talk, and everybody talks over each other. So for Nick, he had to learn to talk to everybody. Like, ‘Yeah, I’m saying this!’ I’m like, ‘I know what you’re saying but I’ll wait for you to finish.’

She detailed the adjustments the two made and revealed her own challenge of learning to wait patiently for someone to finish speaking. On the other hand, Nick, who had limited exposure in India before marrying Priyanka, has since visited the country several times. Recently, he extended his stay in India by several weeks to attend Holi celebrations with Priyanka and her extended family.

Priyanka and Nick got married in 2018. They welcomed their daughter, Malati Mary Chopra Jonas, in 2022.
