Over the weekend, actress Priyanka Chopra Jonas, 41, shared a refreshing selfie on her Instagram Story, opting for a natural look.
In the selfie, Chopra Jonas closed her eyes as water ran over her face, showcasing her brunette hair in loose waves down her back. She captioned the photo, “Fresh faced Sundays” along with a heart-eyed emoji.
Chopra Jonas has been vocal about her evolving self-image, particularly in relation to beauty standards. “In the past, I always felt pressure to look a certain way,” she shared in a 2021 interview with The Telegraph. “I have been raised with unrealistic beauty standards my whole life — we all have. Growing up, I believed everything had to be perfect, skinny or sample size, and airbrushed.”
However, Chopra Jonas has come to embrace her natural skin and hair texture over time. “It has taken me time to come to terms with my natural skin and natural hair texture,” she revealed. “I’m now comfortable in my own skin and I can work with brands that are about individuality and expressing yourself.”
The actress, who shares daughter Malti Marie, 2, with husband Nick Jonas, 31, also opened up about the challenges of parenting. “I think every day,” she admitted when asked about feeling overwhelmed as a mom. “I think when you put them to bed, it’s extremely overwhelming because every single day you worry about what you can do wrong and what mistake you might make.”
Despite the challenges, Chopra Jonas finds joy in motherhood. “I look at [my daughter’s] smile, and I’m like, ‘Okay, okay. I’m doing good so far,'” she said. “It’s the greatest thing I’ve ever done, but it’s extremely scary.”
