On Priyanka’s wedding
During the interaction, Joseph talked about witnessing Priyanka and Nick’s wedding and said, “I knew Nick as the actor in Jumanji, and not for the Jonas Brothers. I grew up in the wrong era, so I was not part of the Disney childhood. I didn’t watch much TV, and whatever little I watched was Doordarshan. I knew Priyanka Chopra, obviously. I was a huge fan.”
‘The bride thought I was joking’
He went on to add, “The Jonas family took the mic and started singing at the mehendi, and I was like, ‘Man, these guys can sing’. I said this out loud. The bride thought I was joking. The bride’s sister (Parineeti) had to tell me that they’re a part of an actual brand. I’ve met Priyanka and Nick at so many weddings after, and they come up to me and say hi. They’re the sweetest people. At every baraat, Nick would be the first to find me across the room. He’s very Punjabi. That whole family is very Punjabi. They’re the best version of Punjabi. They sing, they dance, they’re warm…”
Priyanka and Nick got married in a Christian and Hindu ceremony at Jodhpur’s Umaid Bhawan Palace on December 1 and 2, 2018. In January 2022, the two announced that they welcomed daughter Malti Marie via surrogacy.
