Katherine Schwarzenegger pregnant, expecting third baby with Chris Pratt – NBC Connecticut

Originally published on E! Online

Everything is great with Chris Pratt and Katherine Schwarzenegger.

After all, according to several media outlets, the “Guardians of the Galaxy” star and the “Gift of Forgiveness” author are expecting their third baby together.

The couple, who married in 2019, also have daughters Lyla, 3, and Eloise, 2, as well as Pratt's 11-year-old son Jack with his ex Anna Faris.

“They are sweet and wonderful,” Pratt told E! News in May of his children. “They are sweet, polite, kind, happy little angels and I love them.”

In fact, Pratt, 45, and Schwarzenegger, 34, are raising their children “in a way where they can safely express themselves.”

“There's a new era of parenting,” he said. “I grew up doing exactly what my parents said. I never knew I could say 'no' to my parents.”

And now Pratt sometimes finds it difficult to say goodbye to his girlfriends. In a separate interview with E!, he said: “They have me wrapped around their finger. It's crazy.”

Chris Pratt and Katherine Schwarzenegger: Romance in retrospect

“I hate to make generalizations based on gender, but in my experience, girls are more emotional,” said the “Jurassic World” actor. “They prefer to hear stories rather than fight.”

Another “big difference” between being a father to a girl and a boy, for Pratt, is the planning of their daily lives. His two girls “take after their mother, who is incredibly well organized.”



While enjoying lasagna with Kelly, Chris Pratt chats about his role as everyone's favorite cheeky cat in the new movie “Garfield” and reveals whether he is more of a dog or cat person.

“But even the differences between my two daughters,” he added, “show that every child is a little different.”

And what about Schwarzenegger? Parenthood has also changed his life in many ways.

“When I became a mother, I felt like everything in my life had led me directly to this baby being placed on my chest, and it was perfect,” she wrote in a 2021 essay on her mother Maria Shriver's website. “Starting this new chapter of motherhood allowed for a new blossoming of a part of my relationship with my own mother.”

The “BDA Baby” host – the eldest of Shriver's four children with ex-husband Arnold Schwarzenegger – continued: “I've always had a lot of respect for my mother, but since becoming a mother myself, my respect and admiration for her is world-renowned. I ask her questions every day, not just about motherhood, but about marriage, work, friendships, parenting and so much more. I know how lucky I am to have her.”

“I hope I'm half as perfect a mother as she was,” Schwarzenegger added. “I hope I can raise children who feel as loved and accepted as she did with me and my siblings.”

But according to Pratt, who finalized his divorce from Anna in 2018, Schwarzenegger is already doing a great job.

“Watching you be Lyla and Eloise's mom and Jack's stepmom makes me fall in love with you more every day,” he wrote her in a Mother's Day tribute this year. “The 24/7 job of planning, transporting, loving, nurturing, managing calendars, scheduling activities, the feedings, the boundaries, the rules, the patience, the gentleness, the firmness, the wisdom and the grace. It's truly a miracle.”

E! News has reached out to press representatives for comment on the pregnancy but has not received a response.
