Chris Pratt Says He Met Katherine Schwarzenegger at Church Not Through Maria Shriver

Pratt used a Fox & Friends interview to recast their origin story, framing a chance church meeting rooted in his faith.

Overview

  • In a Fox & Friends interview on Dec. 2, Pratt rejected reports that Maria Shriver introduced the couple, saying he first noticed Schwarzenegger during a church service in Hollywood.
  • He said he was picking up his son Jack from a kids program at the time and that father and son met Schwarzenegger at the same moment.
  • Recent holiday posts from Pratt and Schwarzenegger showed a rare image of Arnold Schwarzenegger with his granddaughters and a family snapshot of all four of Pratt’s children with their faces obscured.
  • A Thanksgiving‑week photo documented a cordial hug between Pratt and ex‑wife Anna Faris during a handoff for Jack at St. Monica’s Catholic Church, where Pratt volunteered afterward.
  • Pratt said his household is participating in an advent prayer challenge using a prayer app for brief daily reflections during December.
