After receiving heavy backlash for allegedly criticising Priyanka's decision to opt for surrogacy, Taslima has said that her tweet has nothing to do with the couple.

"My surrogacy tweets are about my different opinions on surrogacy. Nothing to do with Priyanka-Nick. I love the couple," she tweeted. In another tweet, she talked about getting abusive messages online, "Ppl are abusing me for my comments on surrogacy.They claim it's my stone-age idea to not rent wombs for making babies.I suggest to adopt homeless children&to not exploit/invade poor women's body. Actually its a stone-age idea by any means to reproduce babies for following traits."

Priyanka has previously spoken about her ambition to have children. She said she's "very fond of children" and that she planned to have kids within the next decade. In 2018, she shared, "I am a very 'live in the today,' maximum 'live in the next two months' kind of person. But (in) 10 years, I definitely want to have kids. That is, it's going to happen in the next 10 years. Well, hopefully, earlier than that. I'm very fond of children and I want to be able to do that."
