When Priyanka Chopra spoke on why she married Nick Jonas and 10-year age gap

Priyanka Chopra called out the gender double standards about men dating younger partners versus women who do. The Quantico star said that the couple was at the receiving end of a lot of flak

Priyanka Chopra, 36 who is on cloud nine after her International appearances and successful Hollywood career has now spoken about the age gap between her and her husband, popular pop singer Nick Jonas, 26.

Priyanka and Nick Jonas' age gap of 10 years has been raising a lot of eyebrows ever since they got together in 2018. 

Netizens never stopped talking about them and some even criticised them over it. Not only that, several memes went viral too that were based on the age-gap between Priyanka and Nick.

Now, almost seven months into their marriage, the 36-year-old actress finally addressed the slew of criticism surrounding the age difference, in a recent interview with Instyle magazine. 

The actress rightly pointed out the gender double standards when it comes to women dating younger men versus men who do the same.

"People gave us a lot of sh*t about that and still do. I find it really amazing when you flip it and the guy is older, no one cares and actually people like it."

She further went on to say that to this day, people still give them a lot of nonsense for their 10-years-age gap. 

On the matter of kids, Priyanka said that she and Nick do want to start a family when the time is right. "I want my existence to have meant something. I want my kids to turn around and be like, 'Yeah, that was my mom,'" stated the actor. 

Talking about how Nick and PeeCee’s mother Madhu Chopra spoke for the first time, she said, "When Nick was coming down the first time, I was a little like, 'Oh, man...' Both my mom and Nick speak at this decibel (inaudible murmur), so anyone around them is like, 'Huh? Sorry what?' When they were speaking to each other when they met, I was like, 'Are they even going to understand each other? Cause I don't understand the conversation."
 

Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas tied the knot in Udaipur in December 2018 after a whirlwind romance. From the venue, food, décor to their trousseau, guests everything made headlines for the right reason. The wedding was one of the biggest and most extravagant weddings of 2018 even People magazine US did an exclusive report.
