Priyanka and Nick hit by Met Gala Curse?

Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas

has some netizens convinced they are the latest victims of the rumoured

Met Gala curse

after their appearance on the blue carpet. The couple, who made heads turn at the 2025 Met Gala with their chic look that oozed old Hollywood glam, reignited speculation about trouble in their marriage, after fans and a body language expert pointed out signs of tension and distance between the couple.The duo, who tied the knot in 2018, returned to the gala that maked the start of their love story, but this time around, it was their alleged 'lack of chemistry' that raised eyebrows. The couple posed with noticeable space between them. While at first it was presumed that Nick kept his distance to avoid stepping on his wife's white dress, the pictures later sparked conversations online about whether their relationship might be under strain.Social media users highlighted a photo of the pair holding hands but standing far apart outside The Carlyle hotel before the event. One fan commented, “All that space… divorce soon come.”

A body language expert Judi James added to the chatter when she analysed their red carpet demeanour and told DailyMail.com that the pair appeared more like “two stars that are married” rather than a "one unit". “Their poses look independent, less tactile and less flirtatious — maybe more grown-up,” she said, leaving room for speculation.James also noted that Nick’s body language seemed especially detached as he “brought one facial expression with him here, and it’s a rather fierce, serious look. There's no smiling or gazing at his wife.”

Meanwhile, others took to the comments section under their Vogue interview video and remarked, “They don’t look happy but love to see them in public!”Another said, "Im so sorry. Nick and Priyanka hate each other the body language is screaming."James further compared the pair’s appearance this year to their Met Gala debut in 2017. “Looking back, it's easy to see they missed a beat this year. Their signature sensual, fun posing was noticeably absent.”Several others seemed convinced that PC and Nick might just be the latest couple to fall under the Met Gala Curse. Fans noted that over the years, those couples who dared to show off their love on the Met Gala carpet, have eventually gone their separate ways. The curse has claimed around 20 relationships over the past years. While some relationships were just a few months old, like Kim Kardashian and Pete Davidson, Hailey Baldwin and Shawn Mendes, it even seemed to end long-standing relationships like those of Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth, Jennifer Lopez and Alex Rodriguez, Gigi Hadid and Zayn Malik, among many others.Reacting to a post on the alleged curse, one commented, "Nick and Priyanka next."
