AceShowbiz - Chris Pratt gushed about his wife, Anna Faris, in a Reddit AMA session on Friday, April 24. He penned tribute to his wife while doing a promotion for his upcoming movie "Jurassic World".
While other members of the online community asked about his filmography, one fan came up with a different topic, asking about his relationship with his wife. "My questions for you are what drew you two together? Is there some cute story in which you guys fell in love? Is Anna a great wife/mom?" so read the question.
The "Guardians of the Galaxy" star answered, "Anna and I are meant to be together. Our relationship has made me believe in divine intervention and destiny, just as much as my crazy career and the way I fell into this life." He also said why Faris is a great wife, "Anna is a great wife. Very patient and understanding. Very supportive. So kind and genuine always. And she gave me a wonderful son and family of in-laws that I truly love."
The actor told the participants that they both had some similarities that might drew them together. "She and I grew up 20 minutes away from each other but never met until we met in L.A.," he continued. "We both got our start in horror spoofs. We both did an animated movie for Phil Lord and Chris Miller. We both made our careers playing guileless nitwits for laughs. We both have parents that have suffered with MS. The similarities go on and on."
The stars both grew up in Washington state and had not known each other until they met on the set of "Take Me Home Tonight" in 2007. Faris worked with Lord and Miller on animated movie "Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs", while Pratt worked with the director duo on "The Lego Movie".
The couple tied the knot in 2009 after Faris got divorced from Ben Indra in early 2007. In August 2012, they were blessed with a son, Jack, who is now two years old.
