I think his first wife, whom he abandoned with a sick child when he reached the height of his success, would not agree much with this "gentlemanly" statement.

u/ZenGarments Mar 05 '25

His first wife is very good friends with him and his second wife. So obviously she doesn't have the feelings you attribute to her.

u/ButterscotchButtons Mar 05 '25

Sometimes you have to be mature, and foster a good relationship with your ex and their new spouse for the sake of the children. Doesn't mean he didn't do her super dirty.

There's also tangible reasons to dislike him.

If you’re an extremely famous person like Chris Pratt and some of the worst dirt that you can pull up is that he attends church, was grateful for a healthy baby and said that he didn’t feel like he was represented by either political side maybe he’s not thaaat shitty. Like yeah I’m not gonna call him a great guy or want to be his friend or anything. It’s not worth getting worked up about a Chris Pratt for being a little bit not great when there’s guys like Diddy out there

u/Sisyphus_MD Mar 06 '25

yeah i read the post expecting it to be scandalous, but it was literally "Chris Pratt thanks his wife for delivering a healthy baby when his first child was born premature"

like it was maybe insensitive, but maybe also just whatever the fuck? this is so vanilla istg

u/ParadoxTheRay Mar 06 '25

Reddit thrives on hatred and finding the "worst" qualities in people to have a superior complex over them. It's truly insufferable

u/sobuffalo Mar 05 '25

Who cares? He’s just an actor, why are you so concerned about his private life?

u/[deleted] Mar 06 '25

Because celebrities are put on a pedestal.

u/whiskeyinmyglass Mar 05 '25

Their son was born premature and then fully healthy within a year. And they split 5 years later.

Are you willfully spreading misinformation or just too busy for a simple google search.

u/b14ck_jackal Mar 05 '25

I also heard he got deployed in Gaza for a while, on the Israel side.

u/AgelessJohnDenney Mar 05 '25

?? His first wife is Anna Faris, who has arguably the same level of fame and success as Pratt. They married in 2009, and had a son, born prematurely, in 2012.

They divorced in 2017, and, as far as I can tell, they have joint custody of their only child.

So what are you on about?

-65

u/reddit-user-in-2017 Mar 05 '25

Pratt cheated on Anna. She was the main reason why Chris has level of fame.

u/xywv58 Mar 06 '25

This one is just wrong, Chris exploded by being one of the funniest characters in one of the best sitcoms out there, and then becoming a Marvel staple

u/diddlydooemu Mar 06 '25

People genuinely believe Guardians got him famous.

Redditors and incorrect celebrity Gossip.

fuck I didn't realize til now but it's worse here than the people who read fucking People magazine lmaoooo

u/bebejeebies Mar 05 '25

Their son has health issues and when his current wife gave birth he thanked her for giving him a healthy baby.

18

u/Nonikwe Mar 06 '25

Wait.

He THANKED his wife?

For giving him a HEALTHY baby?!

What an asshole. Everyone knows you're supposed to wish for an unhealthy baby and attack the mother of your child either way.

Jfc...

86

u/AgelessJohnDenney Mar 05 '25

And?

He co-parents his son with Anna Farris. They are on good terms.

His second child is born, and he posts a message of thanks for that on social media.

"I'm thankful my daughter is healthy" does not mean "I hate my invalid son."

Y'all need to get out of people's business.

44

u/roachwarren Mar 05 '25

It’s because he revealed himself as conservative so some people just fucking hate him now and study the narratives that support that perspective.

-3

u/Flagon15 Mar 05 '25

Remember the Terminal List shitshow? Reddit will never forgive him for disagreeing with them, lol.

11

u/GranolaCola Mar 05 '25

thanked her for giving him a healthy baby

This is an incredibly common and normal thing to say and in no way passive aggressive towards another child

-53

u/casanochick Mar 05 '25

He cheated on her, then tweeted about his second child with his current wife as though his first child didn't exist. They might be coparents but he's a dick.

103

u/AgelessJohnDenney Mar 05 '25

Both Pratt and Faris have denied those rumors.

He tweeted that he was thankful that his daughter was healthy. That does not mean he hates his son. It just means he's thankful for a healthy daughter. It is possible to love and care for a disabled child and be thankful for your newborn's health at the same time. I know that's a wild thought, but trust me, it's possible.

u/LDC1234 Mar 06 '25

"Information comes out the disproves reddit's presumption of an individual,"

Reddit - "I'll ignore that"

u/LuckyBucketBastard7 Mar 05 '25

It is possible to love and care for a disabled child and be thankful for your newborn's health at the same time. I know that's a wild thought, but trust me, it's possible.

No! Don't you know that you can only have one opinion at a time? And the new opinion completely overwrites the old one?! This is common sense, chud!

u/serpicodegallo Mar 05 '25

Anna Faris, who has arguably the same level of fame and success as Pratt.

this is just disingenuous. you can make your point quite well without saying absurd lies.

30

u/NatRediam Mar 05 '25

Once he lost the weight and got more lucrative roles his personality took a bit of a turn. They both moved on with new partners so maybe it was for the best.

41

u/SpaceDrifter9 Mar 05 '25

Anna Faris isn’t exactly a damsel in distress. I’m not going to judge a divorce but any ex-wife wouldn’t put her ex-husband in good light

6

u/Ringg99 Mar 05 '25

Give me some context. I am probably too dumb to search the internet right now but it seems rather tame coming to divorces and family trouble?

8

u/Imkindofslow Mar 05 '25

Their son has health issues and when his current wife gave birth he thanked her for giving him a healthy baby.

Copied from another comment but that's what happened. He tried clarify that he didn't mean it as an insult to his first wife but it was too late.

5

u/tripptide Mar 05 '25

I thought his son is healthy? Was born premature but was well by the time they divorced

10

u/Circle_Breaker Mar 05 '25

The Internet got mad because when his next child was born he made a post about being thankful for a healthy baby.

The Internet took it as an attack on his first child, who wasn't healthy.

1

u/Imkindofslow Mar 05 '25

Yeah but the internet took it as an insult to his ex-wife. It's not about the son it's about disrespecting women.

5

u/GranolaCola Mar 05 '25

it’s not about the son, it’s about disrespecting women having an excuse to hate Pratt

23

u/HangryBeaver Mar 05 '25

Also “rehomed” a dog in violation of the animal shelter contract and the dog was found starving on the street. I believe he got rid of his 16 yr old cat on Twitter too.

4

u/Oolong-time-no-see Mar 05 '25

When you have to twist the truth so much to justify hating someone it should make you wonder why you really hate them. But that would take self-awareness.

u/asuka_is_my_co-pilot Mar 05 '25

She won it in the end, I'm more concerned with his homophobic trump loving racist mega church

2

u/Decemberbabydoll Mar 06 '25

The leader of the church people are referencing when they talk about his has gone on record that Pratt attended one service and never came back. He’s not a member of that church

2

u/ace_urban Mar 06 '25

And he’s a conservative. That tells you a lot about his character (or lack thereof.)

1

u/Decemberbabydoll Mar 06 '25

His financial contributions are 100% democrat, according to the Goods Unite Us app

1

u/ace_urban Mar 06 '25

He goes to an anti-LGBTQ church. He made some moronic anti-woke movie. He’s def a conservative.

u/Decemberbabydoll Mar 06 '25

The leader of the church you’re referring to has gone on record that Pratt is not a member of his congregation. Pratt attended one service, and never returned.

u/ClosetedChestnut Mar 06 '25

Never happened 😁

u/GranolaCola Mar 05 '25

People just say shit online, huh?

u/danurc Mar 05 '25

He also goes to one of the most, if not thé most, queerphobic mega church

1

u/Normal-Ordinary-4744 Mar 06 '25

He wasn’t a shitty person.

Both Ana and him have vehemently denied any sort of cheating or abuse. They had a disabled child in 2012, separated in 2017, and are currently co-parenting their child. As far as everyone is concerned both Chris and Ana have a good, friendly relationship.

There’s literally no evidence of him being anything close to a shitty person despite’s Reddit’s obsession with him.

He is a conservative Christian (possibly fundamentalist) tho, which makes it easy for Reddit to fill-in the blanks about how he’s actually a super shitty person.

u/Less-Alarm-3974 Mar 06 '25

If you say so.
