Why did Priyanka Chopra drop Nick Jonas’ last name on Instagram?

The news of the couple's newest edition comes just months after rumors started circulating that they were on the verge of divorce.

Fans began to worry about their relationship in November 2021 after it was revealed that Chopra, 39, had dropped her husband's last name from her Instagram.

Despite speculations, Chopra quickly shut the rumors down by releasing a statement and posting a loving photo of her and Jonas.

In an interview with ETimes, the actress revealed that she didn't know why she decided to change her Instagram handle.

Adding: "I wanted the username to match my Twitter, I guess. I just find it really amusing that everything becomes such a huge deal to people. It's social media, guys. Just chill out."

What did Priyanka say about Nick during the Jonas Brothers Family Roast?

In November 2021, the Jonas Brothers were the subject of a Netflix special called the Jonas Brother Family Roast, which saw the brother's friends and family take the stage to roast them.

Among those who stepped up on stage was Chopra, who joked about not only the 10-year age gap between her and her husband but also their pregnancy status.

“Nick and I have a 10-year age gap, we do,” Chopra started off.

“There are many ’90s pop culture references he doesn’t understand, and I have to explain them to him,” she continued.

“He teaches me how to use TikTok, for example, and I teach him what a successful acting career looks like.

“Seriously, I want to talk about how much I love my husband, and one of the things I love about my husband is how much we have in common.

"You know, for instance, we’re both totally, completely, wholly obsessed — and I mean obsessed — with Nick Jonas,” she joked. “We love Nick Jonas. He’s our favorite.”

Chopra then took one final jab at her husband, who was on the edge of his seat during her special announcement.

“Nick and I are expecting!" Chopra stated before taking a long pause and adding, "to get drunk tonight and sleep in tomorrow!” 

Jonas was seen visibly nervous but ultimately erupted in laughter.
