The Four Pillars of the Pratt Family: Jack, Lyla, Eloise, and Ford
The most compelling and unique aspect of Chris Pratt's life in 2025 is his role as a father to four children, each with a distinct place in his blended family. He has consistently spoken about the importance of co-parenting and ensuring all his children feel like one cohesive unit.
1. Jack Pratt (Born August 25, 2012)
Jack is Chris Pratt's eldest son, whom he shares with ex-wife Anna Faris. Born prematurely, Jack's early life was a challenge that both parents have openly discussed, praising his resilience. As of August 2025, Jack is a teenager, celebrating his 13th birthday. Chris and Anna Faris have maintained a respectful and collaborative co-parenting relationship, prioritizing Jack's well-being above all else. This dynamic has been crucial to the overall harmony of the larger Pratt family unit.
2. Lyla Maria Pratt (Born August 2020)
Lyla Maria is Chris and Katherine Schwarzenegger's first daughter. Her middle name, Maria, is a tribute to Katherine's mother, Maria Shriver. Lyla, now five years old, is reportedly a sweet and imaginative child. Katherine often shares glimpses of Lyla's life, though always protecting her privacy by obscuring her face, a practice both parents adhere to for all their younger children. Her arrival cemented Chris's new family chapter after his marriage to Katherine in 2019.
3. Eloise Christina Pratt (Born May 2022)
Eloise Christina is the couple’s second daughter, now three years old. Her birth further expanded the family, creating a close age gap between her and Lyla. Chris has often described the joy of having two young daughters, noting the unique dynamic between them. The family frequently shares pictures of their hands or back-of-head shots, emphasizing their private, family-focused lifestyle away from the intense media scrutiny that often follows major Hollywood families.
4. Ford Fitzgerald Pratt (Born November 2024)
The newest addition to the family is son Ford Fitzgerald, born in November 2024. This arrival was a major update for the family, as it meant Chris was officially a father of four, managing the "beautiful chaos" of multiple young children. The birth of Ford in late 2024 has dominated the recent family news, with Chris giving updates on the busy, yet fulfilling, life at home during his press appearances for projects like The Terminal List: Dark Wolf.
Faith, Philanthropy, and the Schwarzenegger Connection
The stability of the Pratt-Schwarzenegger family is deeply rooted in their shared values, particularly their Christian faith and their commitment to philanthropy. Chris and Katherine famously met through their church, a detail Chris has often clarified to the public.
Global Ambassadors for the Special Olympics
Beyond their immediate family life, Chris Pratt and Katherine Schwarzenegger have taken on a significant public role as Special Olympics Global Ambassadors. This ambassadorship, announced in 2021, is a deeply personal cause for the Schwarzenegger family, as Katherine's grandmother, Eunice Kennedy Shriver, founded the organization. Their involvement highlights a commitment to advocacy and inclusion, using their platform to champion the dignity and acceptance of people with intellectual disabilities. This ongoing role provides a powerful, shared purpose outside of Chris's blockbuster film career (like Jurassic World and the Marvel Cinematic Universe).
The Blended Family Dynamic and Co-Parenting
The success of the Pratt family is a testament to the respectful co-parenting between Chris Pratt and Anna Faris. Maintaining a positive relationship for Jack's sake has been a priority, ensuring that Jack transitions smoothly between both households. Furthermore, Katherine has fully embraced her role as a stepmother to Jack, often sharing tributes to her husband's parenting and the joy of their blended family.
The inclusion of Katherine's parents, Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver, also adds a unique layer to the family structure. Chris has a close relationship with his in-laws, often praising Arnold, the former Governor of California, as a supportive figure. This large, supportive network of grandparents, aunts, and uncles provides a strong foundation for all four children.
As Chris Pratt continues his demanding acting schedule, starring in major franchises, his family remains his central focus. The "beautiful chaos" of a home with a teenager, two toddlers, and a newborn, all under the age of 14, is the current reality for the star. This grounded, family-first approach, supported by his faith and a strong co-parenting dynamic, ensures that the Pratt family is not just surviving the Hollywood spotlight, but truly thriving.
