It was less than a few months since the ink dried on his divorce papers with Anna Faris, and there were many people who were wondering how The House Bunny actress felt about her famous ex-husband's recent proposal. As it turns out, Faris opted to take the high road, congratulating Schwarzenegger and Pratt on the news and saying that she was very happy for the engaged couple.

While Anna Faris didn't make an official comment about the engagement news, she was found commenting on Chris Pratt's Instagram post. As it was reported by the Instagram account Comments By Celebs, fittingly enough, she extended her congratulations to the newly engaged couple by saying:

So, it appears that there are no hard feelings. Nobody seems to be hurt by this recent engagement news. That's certainly a relief for fans of the couple.

It was back in September of 2017 when Anna Faris and Chris Pratt announced they were separating. Throughout the year that proceeded, the celebrity couple reportedly tried to figure out a way to get some distance, while still remaining interconnected in each other's lives for the sake of their 6-year-old son, Jack.

It seemingly very important for both parties that the parents stay connected so that their son could have both parents in his life. For instance, they reportedly decided to live close to one another and they are going to stay in each other's lives until Jack is at least 12. While their romantic relationship may have ended, it seems the famous ex-couple is their parenting partnership intact.

But when it comes to their romantic lives, Anna Faris and Chris Pratt have since moved on. The famous couple seems to have opted to keep their relationships a secret from the press, especially since their marriage was often the source of scrutiny by the public-- particularly when Chris Pratt rose into superstardom. It was just last month in December when Pratt confirmed that he was in a relationship with Katherine Schwarzenegger, and now they are engaged to be married.

We'll be sure to keep you posted on what will happen between the happy couple throughout 2019. In the meantime, however, we're glad Anna Faris is happy with the big news. Or, at least, that she appears happy about the news. Though, one should think that she is probably okay with letting Chris Pratt go by now.
