Chris Pratt pays tribute to his and Anna Faris’ son Jack on his 12th birthday
Chris Pratt and Anna Faris tied the knot in 2009. But after eight years of marriage, the Guardians of the Galaxy actor and the Mom star announced their breakup—with the pair finalizing their divorce the following year.
While the split may have come as a shock to fans, Anna hinted her life with Chris wasn’t as picture perfect as it may have seemed. In fact, The House Bunny alum—who was married to fellow actor Ben Indra from 2004 to 2008—stated she “never talked about any issues”—even with her nearest and dearest.
“I’m sure things were more transparent with my relationship with Ben,” she said on a 2021 episode of her podcast Unqualified, “but with Chris, I think that we both protected that imagery even within our close circles.”
And Anna—who is now married to cinematographer Michael Barrett—suggested being in the same industry as her exes didn’t help.
“My two other marriages were with actors, and I don’t think we did a great job of eliminating competitiveness—or at least I didn’t,” she shared on another episode of her podcast later that year. “Being a proud person and not wanting to reveal vulnerability, any hints of competitiveness and comparison, I didn’t handle that very well, I don’t think, and I hope I’ve grown from that.”
