Priyanka, who has worked with UNICEF as a national and global Goodwill Ambassador, also commented on how they prioritise their marriage over their busy schedules.

In 2000, Priyanka was crowned Miss World, and the 37-year-old added that it made her feel a “sense of self” despite some claiming they are “too sexist and Trumpian”.
She told the publication: “‘It’s something that I’m extremely proud of.
“It gave me a trampoline to my acting career,” she continued.
Priyanka also revealed: “It gave me a sense of self, a sense of confidence to be able to stand in front of heads of state, to be able to speak in front of media from around the world, and actually know what I’m talking about.”

Priyanka, who starred in 2017’s Baywatch, also went into detail about her upbringing with her parents and grandmother.
The star explained that her mother’s sisters worked in academia and her dad was a “free-thinking creative as well as a surgeon”.
Priyanka stated: “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,” the singer added.
