Anna Faris has recalled her “sad” divorce from Chris Pratt. The 49-year-old actress and the 46-year-old actor split in 2017, after eight years of marriage, with their divorce finalized the following year.
Scary Movie’s Anna told Variety, “I was feeling sad. I do feel like I had enough gumption, enough of a core, and I have tried to be careful about how much Hollywood infiltrates, but now I’ve been on a spectrum of fame for 26 years, so I would be naïve to think that it hasn’t shaped who I am at this point. But, f***. The scrutiny.”

Anna Faris Is Unqualified podcast was a lifeline for the entertainer amid navigating her breakup from Chris. The Hot Chick star’s podcast helped ease the pain of the divorce from the Guardians of the Galaxy cast member.
Anna explained, “I’m lucky that at that time I had my podcast. That ges back to the talk radio. I wanted, like, four people to listen and to build my own secret community. I wanted an avenue outside of Hollywood as a way to connect with people.”
Although she “didn’t disclose a lot” on it, Anna felt she could open up “if I needed to”. The podcast, launched in 2015, fueled her “constant desire to connect with people”.

Anna said, “I used to do this thing on ski lifts where, if I was on a ski lift with a stranger, I’d say, ‘Do you want to have a really intense 10-minute conversation with me? And you can answer any question you want to.’ And I’d ask them questions like, ‘When was the first time you fell in love?'”
Making episodes of Anna Faris Is Unqualified took her mind off her marriage with Chris ending.
The Overboard alum said, “It made me think, I know I could be happy if I’m writing, because I’ve always loved that, and maybe that’s an avenue to make money. I was thinking of a version of retirement. But now, I feel like the opportunities are more bountiful than they’ve ever been!”

“I’m just overwhelmed with gratitude. When people see me, they usually smile and say, ‘Oh, I love The House Bunny!’ Or, ‘Oh, I love Scary Movie!’ Or, ‘Mom’ helped me through that hard time.'”
What is Anna and Chris’ relationship like now?
Despite their marriage failing, Anna and Chris, who have a 13-year-old son named Jack together, remain the best of friends.
In October 2017, she told People, “We’ll always have each other and be incredible friends. “There is still so much laughter in our lives together, and he is so proud of me, still. We watched each other grow, and he still cracks me up all the time. And I think I crack him up – unless he’s a really good actor and great at faking laughter.
