She added, “I think I realized what all it takes to actually look the way we do on magazine covers and the work we do. That’s when I realized looks aren’t everything, it’s the confidence with which you walk into a room, it’s the ability to do your job to the best of your capabilities.”

Priyanka appeared in her bridal gown for the magazine, and wrote in an Instagram post, “My fairytale. Thank you @nlvogue for making me your first cover girl of the Love & Wedding issue.”

She said she plans on being an, “extremely glamorous old lady, who will always have an opinion on everyone. I’ll be super fun and yeah, [mine] will be the house everyone will want to come to.”
The actor has spent her post wedding months travelling the world for work and pleasure, along with Nick. She accompanied her husband to the Miami sets of his latest music video with the Jonas Brothers. Priyanka will make a return to Bollywood after several years spent working in the West, with director Shonali Bose’s The Sky is Pink. The film also stars Zaira Wasim and Farhan Akhtar.
