The Indian actress admitted that she noticed that her relationship with the Jonas Brothers star, from New Jersey, "rubbed people the wrong way," though, "I don't know what was it about us" that did.
"I think there was the intercultural nature of it — different countries, different religions, age gap. It was very hurtful," she toldVariety. "And we both, instead of looking out, just sort of looked at each other, and we were like, 'It doesn't matter.' So it's like water off a duck's back now."
In July 2024,Nick, who recently debuted the albumSunday Best, commemorated the day he proposed to Priyanka, writing on Instagram at the time, "I asked the most amazing woman in the world to marry me 6 years ago today. Thank you for saying yes."
When they marked their wedding anniversaryin December 2025, Nick wrote on Instagram, "7 years married to my dream girl," and Priyanka wrote, "You're what dreams are made of."
