Heartbroken is the term to use when you hear about one of your favourite Hollywood couples splitting up, but for “emotionally destroyed” is a better term to describe how fans felt after hearing the announcement of Anna Faris and Chris Pratt’s legal separation. No one saw this one coming.
On Aug. 7, both Faris and Pratt announced their separation on social media.
Pratt and Faris met in 2007 on the set of “Take Me Home Tonight,” in Los Angeles. They played the love interests in the film. Faris was married at the time of their meeting, so Pratt and Faris became friends. They found they had a lot in common, and a connection that made their friendship strong.
In 2008, Faris and her husband split up. Chris told Esquire Magazine in an interview, that he was determined to marry Farris when she was no longer with her ex-husband. They were engaged in late 2008 and married in June 2009.
The couple stayed married for eight years, and have a four-year-old son named Jack.
The pair made fans believe in love again. They were known for their countless romantic and witty back and forth tweets to one another. They always made iconic red carpet appearances where you could see the love they had for one another by the way they looked at each other.
Fans took to social media, and expressed how sad they were feeling, but how they wish the couple the best in this hard time.
The separation came as a shock to fans. Their love had an expiration date, and it’s hard to see this iconic duo go. But now it’s time to take a deep breath, and move on. There are plenty other Hollywood couples out there to admire.
