Chris Pratt Welcomed Baby Number 4, but Fans Are Astonished with a Peculiar Detail
Chris Pratt and Katherine Schwarzenegger Pratt are thrilled to announce the arrival of their third child and their first son. The happy news was shared in a joint Instagram post on Monday, Nov. 11, revealing both the baby’s birthdate and name. The name, in particular, has left fans laughing, and here’s why. Keep reading to find out more.
The 45-year-old Jurassic World star and his 34-year-old author wife are already parents to daughters Eloise Christina, 2, and Lyla Maria, 4. The couple has been together since 2018, and Katherine's mother, Maria Shriver, set them up at first. They got engaged in January 2019, and by July, had tied the knot in an intimate ceremony.
Meanwhile, Pratt is also dad to son Jack, 12, whom he shares with ex Anna Faris.
Needless to say, the newest member of the family has left the parents "overjoyed", as they wrote in their Instagram post, "We are overjoyed to announce the birth of our son, Ford Fitzgerald Schwarzenegger Pratt. Mama and baby are doing well and Ford’s siblings are thrilled by his arrival. We feel so blessed and grateful. Love, Katherine, and Chris."
Friends, family, and fans pitched in their joy via comments, including grandma Maria Shriver, who wrote, "He hit the parent jackpot! And of course the grandparent one too, lol." She also followed up with more comments, "Scorpios rule," and "And I'm so over the moon for all of you."
The baby name unveiling caused a little bit of confusion as well, as one fan claimed, "I straight up thought these were four stars in an upcoming film instead of one little baby starring in an upcoming life. Congratulations!!!".
The "list" of four names had yet another Instagram user cracked a similar joke, writing, "Thought you started a law firm."
Many other Instagram users wondered who the little boy was named after, given he carries the surnames of both his parents, as well as a first and middle name, which made one commenter deadpan, "Who is he NOT named after?"
The common consensus was that "Ford" came from the truck or the car brand, while one fan assumed the Fitzgerald came from Katherine’s great uncle. Either way, this is one lucky little boy, and many Hollywood stars added their wishes in the Instagram comments.
Chris Pratt has special bracelets that help him keep his kids close wherever he goes. He wrote, “Loving my new bracelets that keep the kiddos with me always!” These bracelets make it easier for him to stay connected with his children while he’s working or traveling. Whether it’s a practical reminder or a fun accessory, Chris found a way to keep his kids involved and close by. It shows how much he values spending time with his family, no matter where life takes him.
Chris Pratt is a proud dad not only of his son from a previous relationship and his newborn baby boy but also of his two daughters. He often shares adorable moments of family life on social media. Recently, he posted a funny image with the caption, "All I have to say is… Jack would never do this to me," showing his playful side as a dad. Fans love seeing these heartwarming glimpses of his life with his kids.
We feel so happy for our favorite stars when they share exciting news, like becoming parents for the first time or adding to their families. Or when they show what is like to be not only a father, but a daddy. But we also feel for them when they share heartbreaking news. For example, when Megan Fox posted a provocative picture of her pregnant belly, followed by sad news, our hearts went out to her. It's a reminder that behind the joyful moments, there can also be difficult times.
