Recently, Priyanka joined Amanda Hirsch's Not Skinny But Not Fat podcast where she revealed why she and Nick Jonas are prioritising their daughter Malti's anonymity as she grows older. "As she's growing older, we've started to also kind of just deflect a little bit. She moves around a lot, (so we) let her have as much anonymity as she can. It is her normal, and people will be curious about her, and I never want her to be fearful of that or judgy or skeptical of the humans that she meets because there are good people in the world, and I've had wonderful experiences with friends like that. It's okay for her to be aware of it, but to have a sense of choice, I think will be important,” Priyanka said. The actor went on to explain why she decided to hire security when they go out, sharing that her daughter was once followed home from school by a normal person recording her. Priyanka confessed that she decided to lead a public life, but she wants to ensure her daughter has the ability to make that choice for herself. She shared, “When we have security out and about, it's just ... to not be recorded without consent because a lot of that happens… I've always been of the opinion that I kind of chose a public life... (When) it comes to children, that's ... terrain we are all learning in the last like 10 to 20 years what that is gonna be like in the next 10 years, 15 years for them. So I think a little bit of grace is required for everyone, but also certain awareness of safety and what that means." During the chat, Priyanka mentioned that all the curiosity about her daughter is "great”, but she wants to prioritise Malti's protection above everything else. Priyanka got married to singer Nick Jonas in 2018, and the couple embraced parenthood in 2022 when they welcomed their daughter Malti Marie Chopra Jonas via surrogacy.Priyanka’s latest project
