Here's What We Know About Chris Pratt And Katherine Schwarzenegger's First Child Together
Before Chris Pratt became a household name, he was married to actress Anna Faris. According to Insider, they met in 2007 on the set of the comedy Take Me Home Tonight. Pratt and Faris tied the knot in a small ceremony in Bali on July 9, 2009, per People. Three years after walking down the aisle, the couple announced the birth of their son, Jack Pratt, who was born in August 2012, per Harper's Bazaar. However, things weren't destined to last.
In August 2017, the couple announced their decision to legally separate via social media. The joint statement read (via ABC News): "We tried hard for a long time, and we're really disappointed. Our son has two parents who love him very much and for his sake we want to keep this situation as private as possible moving forward," adding, "We still have love for each other, will always cherish our time together and continue to have the deepest respect for one another."
After the couple's split, love was in the air again and in June 2018, Pratt was spotted on a date with Katherine Schwarzenegger, who happens to be Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver's eldest child. (Pratt had to get approval from the Terminator to marry his daughter!) But it all worked out because on June 8, 2019, Pratt and Schwarzenegger got married, per US Weekly.
Now, the happy couple is celebrating the birth of their first child together and we have all the details.
Katherine Schwarzenegger and Chris Pratt welcomed a baby girl
In late April 2020, news broke that Katherine Schwarzenegger and her husband, Chris Pratt, were expecting a baby. On Aug. 10, 2020, Pratt jumped on Instagram to announce that they had welcomed a baby girl, sharing a picture of both his hand and Schwarzenegger's hand wrapped around that of their new daughter.
He captioned the photo: "We are beyond thrilled to announce the birth of our daughter, Lyla Maria Schwarzenegger Pratt. We couldn't be happier. Both mom and baby are doing great. We are extremely blessed. Love Katherine and Chris." Pratt also added some Bible verses. Schwarzenegger added the same photo to her Instagram, writing, "We couldn't be happier and we feel extremely blessed!"
According to Page Six, Schwarzenegger's brother Patrick Schwarzenegger told photographers that both mother and daughter were "doing great," adding that he "just got her a little gift." This is the first child for Schwarzenegger and the second for Pratt, as he shares son Jack Pratt with ex-wife Anna Faris.
Congratulations to the delighted parents!
