Priyanka Chopra has bluntly addressed rumours that she and the Duchess of Sussex, Meghan Markle, are feuding.

The actress broke her silence during a segment on Andy Cohen’s show, 'Watch what happens live' on Thursday.

Rumours of a rift between the women started circulating after Chopra was noticeably absent from the Duchess' star-studded baby shower in February.

Just months earlier the royal was a no-show at Chopra's wedding to Nick Jonas in India.

But during the segment on Andy Cohen's show, a fan called in live to probe the actress about what was really going on and asked: "Are the rumours true that you were upset that Meghan Markle skipped your wedding to Nick Jonas?"

Earlier this week another source quashed rumours of a rift between the pair and hinted that they're closer than ever.

The Quantico star immediately laughed at the question and bluntly shut it down.

“No,” she laughed

“Oh my god, no it’s not true.”

The shower, which took place in New York in February this year, included A-list guests including Gayle King, Amal Clooney, Abigail Spencer and Serena Williams.

However, Chopra – who attended Markle’s wedding to Prince Harry in May, 2018 – apparently missed the event, due to prior work commitments.
