In a recent interview with UK’s Tatler magazine, Priyanka spoke on how her grandmother was worried about her lack of cooking skills, “All my mother’s sisters were academics and my dad was a free-thinking creative, a musician and an artist, as well as a surgeon. My grandmother – my dad’s mum – always used to say, about me, ‘Who’s going to marry her? She can’t cook.’ And my dad would say, ‘I’ll send a cook with her. She never needs to go into the kitchen.’ My mum didn’t know how to cook when she got married. My dad taught her how. And he taught her everything he liked to eat. Clever man.”
Currently, Priyanka is quarantining with singer husband Nick Jonas in Los Angeles amid the coronavirus pandemic. The actress is quite active on social media and often shares candid pictures and videos of her life amid lockdown.
