Chris Pratt’s photographed June 17 picnic date with 28-year-old author Katherine Schwarzenegger—Maria Shriver and Arnold Schwarzenegger’s daughter—was not their first time going out, E! reports. It turns out Pratt has been quietly dating Katherine for months. "It's still very new between Chris and Katherine but the picnic was not their first date," a source told the outlet. "They have been on multiple low key dates and have been talking consistently for the last two months or so."
Pratt really, really likes her though, and that sentiment is not one-sided. "They both really like each other," the source continued. "Chris is smitten by Katherine and is super happy about how it's going so far."
Pratt and his ex-wife Anna Faris announced their separation in August 2017. Faris is now dating Michael Barrett.
