Actor Priyanka Chopra in a new interview talked about motherhood and how it has impacted her lately. She told Today.com that she feels more fragile than before as she has her daughter Malti Marie Chopra Jonas now. The actor also said she worries about self-sabotaging things.
Priyanka said, “Motherhood has made me a lot more fragile. I don’t know if motherhood has impacted my self-worth or confidence but what it has impacted — it’s made me a lot more wary. Every day, I’m like, ‘Oh my gosh, what’s the mistake I’m going to make? Or how can I mess this up? How am I going to self-sabotage in a way?’ I feel like I have to remind myself that I’m a confident person and I can do this.”
She also talked about the importance of instilling confidence in a child. Drawing an example from her life, she added, “I think you start when they are born. My parents did that with me, teaching me a sense of self. I was always told to voice my opinion … If there was someone who critiqued me or debated my opinion, I was encouraged to have that conversation. I think that is one way my parents equipped me with being able to have a sense of self when I got out into the real world.” “And I think I’m trying to do that with (our child), too,” she also said.
Priyanka Chopra dated singer Nick Jonas for some time before they tied the knot in 2018. The couple welcomed their first child, Malti Marie Chopra Jonas, via surrogacy and announced the news in January 2022.
