Chris Pratt on him and Anna being soulmates during his April 2015 Reddit AMA: "Anna and I are meant to be together. Our relationship has made me believe in divine intervention and destiny...She and I grew up 20 minutes away from each other but never met until we met in L.A. We both got our start in horror spoofs. We both did an animated movie for Phil Lord and Chris Miller. We both made our careers playing guileless nitwits for laughs. We both have parents that have suffered with MS. The similarities go on and on. Anna is a great wife. Very patient and understanding. Very supportive. So kind and genuine always. And she gave me a wonderful son and family of in-laws that I truly love."

Chris Pratt to Faris during his Hollywood Walk of Fame Speech in April 2017 (via E!): "With every challenge, with every day, week, month, decade, we become more bonded. You make me laugh like nobody else. You're very caring, and thank you for your trust and your sacrifice—and for your dedication and your heart. I will do my best to protect it, and in return I will give you all of those things as well. You have my heart, my dedication, my trust."

Anna Faris on the pressures of being a public couple during her Unqualified podcast in December 2016: "We grapple with the idea of being a public couple. For the first time, maybe a year ago or 10 months ago, we were in the public a little bit. There were some tabloid rumors about strain on our relationship. I just remember feeling so hurt in a way that bothered me because I didn't want to think of myself as somebody that could be affected by tabloid shit. There was a picture of me walking alone on the beach: 'Aging Anna Faris, Alone on the Beach.' I take pride in how great my relationship is with Chris. Having said that, of course, in this crazy world where he's off doing movies and I'm in L.A. raising our child, of course I'm going to feel vulnerable, like any normal human would. It did make me feel like, 'Is public perception— even though it's false—is there a grain of something?' It made me feel incredibly insecure."

Chris Pratt on how their varying levels fame have affected him and Faris to GQ 2015: "I think it's something you have to manage. It's a little different, because she's achieved enough to hang her hat on for her life, anyways. She's done really amazing things—she's always gonna be known for really funny and great work, critically acclaimed work and successful stuff. …I've had those moments where I was like the guy holding the purse at events and people just looked right through me. And, you know, actors come up and just blatantly hit on my wife in front of me and don't even look at me. I'm like, 'What the fuck, dude?' I can think of exactly who they are, too, and I hope they fucking audition for Guardians of the Galaxy."

Anna Faris on coping with tabloid gossip about her and Pratt during her Unqualified podcast in March 2016: "One of the awesome things about doing this podcast has been that I feel like I've been able to talk about my relationship with Chris that doesn't involve tabloid gossip and I love that. It's incredibly hard but it's hard for everybody—no matter what they do. I love that I get to be a little bit proactive on this podcast and be like, 'Well, you know, I am—like, this is who I am, I hope that you know, we, you know, can survive the distance.' I know that he loves me."

Chris Pratt's note to Faris in an Instagram of them during his press tour in April 2017: "Thank you for the support honey! You look so beautiful. These press tours can be such a whirlwind. I'm grateful to have you and the boy with me on this one. Although it's 3:00am right now, I was just awakened by a square kick to the back as little man climbed into bed and then must have had a karate dream or something and now I can't sleep. I'm on insta instead. All you dads and moms know what I'm talking about."

Anna Faris on the Jennifer Lawrence-Chris Pratt cheating rumors to Us Weekly in August 2015: "I had always kind of believed that part of the rumors of celebrity couples were sort of true because they had never been part of my life. I was like, 'Oh, maybe there's a kernel of truth to that.' It's been a little devastating because for us, it's like, 'What the heck?' This has been blindsiding to us. We have an incredible relationship. It has been weirdly stinging. I am very lucky that I am with a man [who] values family."
