Priyanka Chopra Opens Up About Having A Long Distance Marriage With Nick Jonas: 'It Was Tricky, But We Manage'

Priyanka Chopra is opening up about the difficulties of having a long distance marriage with Nick Jonas.

Over the weekend, there was speculation that the celeb couple had split up when fans noticed she had taken off the “Jonas” from her social media platforms.

However, that was hardly the case, as Priyanka and Nick attended the Fashion Awards just days later together.

“This year has been really, really tough. It was really, really tough to be away from home for an entire year, especially at a time when you can’t travel to see your family,” Priyanka shared during her recent appearance on InStyle‘s Ladies First With Laura Brown podcast.

Priyanka continued, saying that “just the uncertainty of my mom and my brother being in India, my husband being in America while I was in the U.K. It just was so much uncertainty and that, to me, was terrifying of not being able to just get on a flight and travel, just in case something went wrong or something happened. But thankfully, you know, everyone was okay,” she continued.

She added that being separated from her family, as well as Nick has been challenging. But the two are prioritizing their relationship.

“We didn’t have a dramatic separation but because he was in and out, we had to be really careful,” she says. “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.”

Priyanka went on, saying that it was “really tricky but we managed. He flew down a bunch of times, I flew down a couple of times. My mom came and stayed with me for almost five months, which was really nice.

She also explained that she and Nick talk all the time to each other.

“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 says. “We’ll have an opinion on each other’s things, we’ll be each other 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.”

“But I think at the same time, it’s very important to keep a check on another person’s heart and how they’re feeling. And I have to say, my husband’s amazing at doing that,” she gushed about Nick. “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.”
