Priyanka Chopra has joked she’s a “terrible wife” because she can’t cook.
The 36-year-old actress married singer Nick Jonas last year and has now revealed she warned him when he proposed to her that while he is used to having his mother’s lekker home-cooked meals, he shouldn’t expect the same from his motjie.
She said: “I can’t cook. And I told him that when he proposed. I was like, ‘Listen, you’re from a good southern home, you’re used to your mom making you amazing food. You’re not marrying that girl.’ I cannot cook. I can make eggs, also sporadically, maybe at night.”
Luckily for the Quantico actress, the 26-year-old Jonas Brothers star didn’t mind her lack of culinary skills, as he is no whizz in the kitchen.
Priyanka added: “I’m a terrible, terrible wife in that sense, but the most amazing thing when I told him that, ‘Babe, I can’t cook and I hope you know that,’ he said, ‘It’s alright babe, neither can I.’ But you don’t hear that from guys! They’re usually like, ‘It’s OK, baby.’ And he was like, ‘I can’t either!”
While there’s no chance of cooking up a curry, Nick recently claimed his wife has other talents, and he’d be “open” to teaming up with her on a song.
He said: “I’d be open to it, I mean, she’s got an incredible voice and there’s a lot of music in our house and a lot of dancing.
“So, I don’t know. Right now we’re just enjoying the first couple months of married life, and we’ll see where it takes us.”
