It's the surprise Hollywood split that's shocked millions of fans worldwide - funnyman action hero Chris Pratt and his sitcom star wife Anna Faris announced their separation yesterday, news.com.au reports.
For years, the adorable pair have been one of Hollywood's golden couples - goofy, loved-up and relatable. But in a heartbreaking joint statement, the couple alluded to the marital problems they were experiencing behind the scenes, admitting that they "tried hard for a long time."
While her day job is as an actor on the sitcom Mom, Faris also hosts her own podcast, Anna Faris is Unqualified. In her most recent episode, released exactly a week before the split announcement, Faris had a candid discussion with guest musician Josh Ostrander in which she talked about the "loneliness" she feels in keeping up a "public character."
"I play a character on Mom, I play a character in movies, but I also play a public character. There's definitely a loneliness and, like, an internal element to being a performer. I feel like I have to laugh ..." she said.
Her guest said it "broke his heart" to see how Faris handles herself in public - and she conceded she was in a difficult situation.
