December 14, 2024: Chris Pratt’s heartfelt tribute to his wife, Katherine Schwarzenegger, on her 35th birthday is a beautiful reflection of their loving and close-knit family dynamic. The Jurassic World star took to Instagram to express his deep gratitude for Katherine, highlighting her role as not only a devoted wife but also a caring mother and wise, nurturing presence in their home.
In his post, Pratt wrote, “To see the way you care for our family. To see the way you run the house. To see the way you communicate… Your wisdom and mindfulness are a blessing I thank God for every day.” His words show just how much he admires her strength, compassion, and dedication to their family, acknowledging the crucial role she plays in their lives. His closing sentiment, “Through the ups and downs, I got you Chief. Love you,” is a touching reminder of their solid partnership through all of life’s challenges.
The couple shares three children: Lyla (4), Eloise (nearly 3), and Ford, their newborn son, born in November. Additionally, Pratt has a 12-year-old son, Jack, from his previous marriage to actress Anna Faris. Katherine and Chris have created a vibrant family life filled with love, and it’s clear from Chris’s post how much he cherishes Katherine for the way she balances everything—from raising their children to maintaining a loving home.
Katherine’s mother, Maria Shriver, also shared a deeply emotional birthday message to her daughter, emphasizing Katherine’s warmth and kindness. Shriver’s tribute highlighted Katherine’s bright personality and her role as a devoted family member: “Her smile lights up every room she walks into… Her heart is big, wide, loving… She is an amazing daughter, an extraordinary sister, caring friend, devoted wife, and a deeply loving mama bear.”
Shriver’s words speak to the close bond between mother and daughter, underscoring the love and admiration they have for one another. It’s clear that Katherine’s character and generosity shine not only within her own family but also in the larger circle of those who love her, including her mother.
This birthday celebration comes at a time when the Pratt-Schwarzenegger family is flourishing, both personally and professionally. The couple’s journey together began in 2018, and their wedding in June 2019 marked the start of a new chapter for them. Their growing family, alongside the milestones in their careers, demonstrates how their bond continues to strengthen.
As Katherine celebrated her birthday, it was also a moment for the couple to reflect on their shared life, the love they have for each other, and their growing family—a testament to the joy they continue to create together. It’s a beautiful reminder that amidst the whirlwind of family and work life, they are each other’s biggest supporters.
