[Fox News] Anna Faris opened up about her past experience with an unnamed significant other cheating on her during their relationship.
Faris sat down for an interview on her “Anna Faris is Unqualified” podcast with Kat Von D, where the two women discussed how they coped in the past when they learned that their significant other had stepped outside the relationship with another woman.
Speaking on the Dec. 2 episode, Faris explained that she confronted the unnamed man in her life at the time, but was so bowled over by his denial that she began to question her own intuition.
“I woke them up in the middle of the night and was like, ‘Are you f–king so and so?’ He was like, ‘You’re crazy,’” she recalled, according to Us Weekly. “I’m pretty oblivious sometimes. Especially in relationships. Of course, I don’t want to believe that anything [is wrong], but there was that gut feeling that was starting to grow more and more.”
She continued, “Not to be too gender-specific, I do think as women we’re sort of taught to suppress fear or suspicion because we might be deemed as suspicious or neurotic or crazy.”
Faris explained that years later she learned that her intuition was correct and that the man had been cheating on her.
The actress divorced her husband of nearly nine years, “Guardians of the Galaxy” star Chris Pratt, in 2018. Together they share 7-year-old son Jack.
She was previously married to actor Ben Indra from 2004 to 2008.
Unfortunately, she didn’t spill any details as to which, if either, of the two she was referring to.
Pratt quickly moved on, getting into a relationship with his new wife, Katherine Schwarzenegger.
Meanwhile, Faris sparked engagement rumors earlier this year with her new boyfriend Michael Barrett.
Although the timing may hint at Pratt being the subject of Faris’ story, the duo has been nothing but respectful to each another since the split, with her noting that he gave her a “heads up” before proposing to Schwarzenegger.
However, the “House Bunny” star did previously speak about “bitterness” in the wake of the divorce when it came to building their co-parenting relationship.
“Chris and I work really hard ‘cause we have Jack, that is sort of the long game idea and making sure Jack is really happy, which makes us really happy,” Faris explained on a past episode of her podcast. “We have sort of the luxury of circumstance. You know, we are both in other loving relationships … But It’s like, how do you not in general sink into a place of bitterness?”
She continued: “I do want to reiterate though that I f—king acknowledge — we all do, everyone acknowledges — that there is bitterness and pain with all breakups and that hopefully makes us human. But the long game is just the worst, being the bigger person. It just is. It f—ing s—s until, then when it happens though, is that everyone’s happy.”

Cheater:
[Optional] Do you think that she and Chris Pratt should have stayed together?
TheRider says
Don’t know who the cheater is but Pratt looks much happier with Faris.
Think they should have tried a little harder to stay together.
tbunny says
I think it’s neither of her public exes. She does mention some college years ones on her show that broke her heart..
MonkeyMouth says
I don’t think it has been ‘years later’ for it to be Pratt. I say her first husband.
Silverdun says
She’s better off without him. She stuck with him when he was gone to seed, then as soon as he got hot he was off. Worse, he did it right under her nose. By all accounts he’s not even a good dad. He comes across as a selfish sort. She’s well rid. She needs to work on her self empowerment for a while, she comes across as so fragile (no thanks to the idiots she’s attracted to) Wish her and her adorable son the best.

Chris Pratt is a cheater. No, they should not have stayed together, but everything she says about coparenting after a divorce is true.
Alexis_Rose says
Interesting Katherine Schwarzenegger married someone just like her dad – hollywood actor, action hero, and known cheater
spookie says
Chris Pratt as the cheater. He’s trying to present a hyper-wholesome image what with the church(cult) and stuff but he’s struck gold marrying a Kennedy so I expect he’ll wander again when the excitement wears off.
Also how the hell has he already gotten a Walk Of Fame star?
eddieslady84 says
I was just thinking the same thing – I realize those WoF stars are pretty much just bought and paid for by the celebs anyway, but still, if either of them should have one it should be her not him…
GeorgiaR says
They have to put up the money for it, which I think is $10,000. Then they have to petition and pester the Hollywood Walk of Fame committee. If you have the right publicity machine, it can happen sooner rather than later. The importance of getting a star has really been watered down in recent years.

Celebrities pay for the Walk of Fame star.

Good grief, that last sentence of hers makes no sense; it’s like a word salad.
No.clue on the cheater but suspecting that Pratt was the one .

Cheater: Chris Pratt
Clearly, Chris and Anna got divorced because they weren’t happy together anymore. They both have moved on and found love. It’s just surprising how fast Chris got married to Katherine. Of course Anna is still bitter!

Chris Prat
He got married really, really quick after divorce, so sad for Anna
Never remain with a cheater, even if he doesnt do it again, trust has been broken.
sherri says
Chris Pratt.
When he lost all that weight and became a big movie star, it went to his head. So it’s so long first wife and hello, young wife and eventually new family…
xxNYGirl says
Cheater: Chris Pratt
BooStrawberry says
Cheater? Chris? I thought she cheated on first husband with Chris – maybe because he cheated first?
If she and Chris Pratt were unhappy, they did what was best for themselves and their son by ending relationship amicably.
aaronxp says
Chris pratt is gorgeous
Baileygirl says
I don’t think she is talking about Pratt. She has to consider her son and I think she is mature enough to not cause unhappiness for her son. It is always better for parents to try to do everything including marriage counseling before they call it quits, especially with a child involved. Pratt showed up with Schwarzenggar pretty quickly. I would like to think that a Christian man would not see another woman before he decides to divorce his wife.
aaaSeeK says
LOL It’s well known that once Pratt dropped the extra weight and became a movie star thanks to Guardians, he started going through women all over town.
Anna didn’t name this guy, and that was probably for her son. But this is DEFINITELY about him.
augustmom says
Pratt the prat. His head got big and turned when big movie fame hit.
CanaryCry says
No doubt this is about Pratt the prat.
He & Anna were another RL version of A Star Is Born – Katherine & her family can have him, while I hope Anna keeps moving on with her life. Also: think well for their son.
SarynotSary says
I think it’s Chris. I love him but he doesn’t strike me as the type for a long commitment. I also think his current marriage is so staged, I could do a better PR job
pharmchick says
Im pretty sure this is about Chris, but Anna is too mature to call him out by name. I really liked them both as a couple, but honestly his head got a little too big when he lot weight and became a movie star. I loved him on parks and rec!
charlene2345 says
I think Anna probably wanted to protect the father of her son, but this sounds like Chris Pratt.
When they were first married, she was a bigger star thanks to the “Scary Movie” films. Then, he lost weight and started getting larger roles, while her career became less prominent.
