Hollywood star Chris Pratt and his wife, Katherine Schwarzenegger, just welcomed their third child—a son—into their growing family!
The couple’s journey began not long after Pratt’s divorce from Anna Faris in 2017. Schwarzenegger, an author and daughter of actor-turned-politician Arnold Schwarzenegger and journalist Maria Shriver, quickly won Pratt’s heart, leading to one of Hollywood’s favourite love stories.
Here’s a closer look at their relationship timeline and everything you need to know about the high-profile pair.
How long did Chris Pratt date Katherine Schwarzenegger?
The couple started dating in 2018, a year after Pratt and Faris announced they were going their separate ways (the exes have an 11-year-old son, Jack, born in 2012).
It’s been a happy road for Pratt, 45, and Schwarzenegger, 34, ever since.
The pair announced their engagement in 2019 and married six months later in Montecito, California – the same area where Prince Harry and Meghan Markle now live.
Pratt, who is open about his Christian faith, said he met Schwarzenegger at church,
‘’It was a lot of kismet, and a lot of connections, but that was where we met,’’ he revealed.
Are Chris Pratt and Katherine Schwarzenegger still married?
The pair are still very much together.
On June 9, Schwarzenegger shared a sweet Instagram photo of the pair looking adoringly at each other to mark their fifth anniversary together.
‘’Five years of laughs and love,’’ she wrote. ‘’I love you! Happy anniversary.’’
On June 22, Schwarzenegger shared a carousel of pics celebrating her husband’s 45th birthday.
‘’Happy birthday my love,’’ she wrote. ‘’Can’t wait to celebrate you all day long. We love you!’’
There is an age difference of 11 years between the two – Pratt is 45 and Schwarzenegger is 34.
Do Chris Pratt and Katherine Schwarzenegger have any children?
Since getting married, the pair have welcomed three children, daughters Lyla (born in August 2020) and Eloise (May 2022) and son, Ford (November 2024).
In 2022, Schwarzenegger opened up to Us Weekly about her desire to have a big family.
‘’I come from a big family, so I love the idea of having a lot of kids around,’’ she said. ‘’Whatever God has in his plan for us is what we’ll do.’’
In November, the couple took to Instagram to announce they had welcomed their son, and fans quickly noticed a sweet family tribute in the name.
“We are overjoyed to announce the birth of our son, Ford Fitzgerald Pratt,” Schwarzenegger captioned the post. “Mama and baby are doing well and Ford’s siblings are thrilled by his arrival. We feel so blessed and grateful. Love Katherine and Chris.”
The name is seemingly a nod to former President John F. Kennedy, whose middle name is Fitzgerald. Katherine, who is the daughter of Maria Shriver and Arnold Schwarzenegger, is JFK’s great-niece.
Does Arnold Schwarzenegger like Chris Pratt?
It seems so!
Arnie certainly knows what it’s like to live life in the Hollywood spotlight, so he has that in common with Pratt.
The pair regularly gush about each other when giving interviews.
‘’He has the experience of raising kids in the spotlight and being an actor, a well-known person and a celebrity,’’ Pratt told Extra in May 2024.
‘’It’s really great to have the wisdom of his experience to go to and talk to about certain things i normally would talk to my brother or cousin or people that I grew up with and they might not be able to relate with certain things.’’
Arnie returned the praise on Travis and Jason Kelce’s New Heights podcast recently, saying he was ‘’really happy’’ his daughter had found Pratt.
‘’He’s a fun guy to talk to,’’ the 76-year-old said.
‘’I’m really happy that my daughter has found him and that he has found her … They found each other.
‘’Because they really fit well together and they just look wonderful together.’’
What has Chris Pratt said about Arnold?
At a Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 3 screening last year, Pratt told People that his father-in-law’s support ‘’means the world to me on a couple of different levels’’.
‘’Just being his son-in-law and being part of his family, it obviously means a lot to have his support’’, he said.
