The ‘Quantico’ star had previously discussed planning a family with husband Jonas, telling Vanity Fair that, “they’re a big part of our desire for the future,” adding, “By God’s grace, when it happens, it happens.”

She also answered to a question about whether they would have to slow down following the birth of their child, to which Priyanka replied, “I’m ok with that.. We’re both ok with that.”

In December 2018, the pair married in India in a two-day ceremony that incorporated Christian and Hindu ceremonies. They reside in Los Angeles with their three dogs Diana, Gina, and Panda.
