At the end of the day, love always finds a way, right? Well, that’s probably what Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas probably thought to themselves after their star-studded and very romantic wedding almost didn’t happen because of Priyanka’s foot injury. Here’s what she has to say.
At one point before what turned out to be the happiest day of her life, Priyanka wasn’t even sure if she was going to attend her own wedding. In her new memoir, Unfinished, Priyanka said that she stepped on a sharp piece of wood in her bathroom right before the Mehendi ceremony back in 2018. Even though she was in immense pain, Priyanka managed to handle it all like a pro.
Priyanka Chopra Almost Didn’t Get Married To Nick Jonas
“I just took some tweezers, sprayed it with perfume—because that’s alcohol, I guess—and pulled it out,” she said.
In her book, Priyanka also says that the other students insulted her by saying, “Brownie, go back to your country!,” and, “Go back on the elephant you came on,” while she walked down the halls.
“I don’t even blame the city, honestly,” she writes. “I just think it was girls who, at that age, just want to say something that’ll hurt. Now, at the other side of 35, I can say that it probably comes from a place of them being insecure. But at that time, I took it very personally.”
Priyanka says that when she returned to India, she felt “so blessed … I was surrounded by so much love and admiration for who I was. Going back to India healed me after that experience in high school.”
“In America, I was trying not to be different,” she adds in the book. “Right? I was trying to fit in and I wanted to be invisible. When I went to India, I chose to be different.”
In an interview with People, she continued, “I took it very personally. Deep inside, it starts gnawing at you. I went into a shell. I was like, ‘Don’t look at me. I just want to be invisible.’ My confidence was stripped. I’ve always considered myself a confident person, but I was very unsure of where I stood, of who I was.”
