Anna Faris Finally Broke Her Silence About Her Split From Chris Pratt
Like seemingly every other celeb these days, Anna Faris has her very own podcast. Unqualified sees the Mom actress interview other stars and offer both expert and layperson advice to listeners about personal matters. And in one particular episode in May 2021, Faris delved deep into one of her own relationships: the star’s failed marriage to Chris Pratt.
Finally Opening Up
At the time, Faris was talking to Rachel Bilson – the actress best-known for her long-running stint on The O.C. The podcast host had previously kept relatively quiet about being one half of a Hollywood power couple. Though on this occasion, she was more than happy to open up about her nine years with Parks and Recreation star Pratt.
Married In 2009
Pratt and Faris walked down the aisle together in 2009 and three years later welcomed son Jack into the world. Sadly, in 2018 the couple officially went their separate ways. You might not know that Faris had previously been married to another actor. She first said “I do” to Raising Dad star Ben Indra in 2004, but four years on the pair headed for the divorce courts.
"Know Your Worth"
Faris had first appeared to address the split from Pratt on her own podcast in 2017. While advising a listener who’d called in for some guidance on their love life, the host remarked, “I made that mistake, I think, a little bit, like feeling like I’m checking my relationship off the list.” She then encouraged the fan to know her worth, independence and youth.
Life Is Too Short
Then Faris went on to add, “Life is too short for you to be in relationships where you’re not feeling like this isn’t fully right. Or somebody doesn’t have your back, or somebody doesn’t fully value you.” Many listeners saw this as a thinly veiled comment about the host’s own impending divorce.
