'Wanted surname to match my Twitter': Priyanka Chopra on dropping 'Jonas' on social media

| @indiablooms | Dec 23, 2021, at 03:49 am

Mumbai/IBNS: Priyanka Chopra had been trending big time ever since the actor dropped Nick Jonas' surname on her Instagram profile.

In a recent interview with ETimes, Priyanka Chopra addressed the hype around her name change and said, "I don't know. 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."

After the actress dropped her husband Nick Jonas' surname from her social media handle, speculations were rife about the couple's split.

However, the couple soon shut the speculations by posting several mushy posts on social media.

On Thanksgiving recently, Priyanka and Nick shared identical posts. "So much to be grateful for. Friends, family... I love you Nick Jonas. Happy Thanksgiving to everyone celebrating," wrote Priyanka.
