Anna Faris has revealed she offered to officiate her ex-husband Chris Pratt’s upcoming wedding.

The actress, 42, proved there are no hard feelings between the pair following their split in 2017.

Faris opened up about Pratt’s new relationship with Katherine Schwarzenegger on her Anna Faris Is Unqualified podcast, telling fans she reminded Pratt that she is an ordained minister.

“Chris texted me this morning and he was like, you know, ‘I proposed to Katherine last night,’” she said. “I was like ‘Ah! That’s amazing.’

“Sweet Katherine, so happy you said yes! I’m thrilled to be marrying you,” Pratt wrote.

“Proud to live boldly in faith with you. Here we go!”

Faris commented: “I’m so happy for you both!! Congratulations!”

Pratt and Faris were married for eight years before announcing their split in 2017. Faris went on to date Michael Barrett, while Pratt and Schwarzenegger, who is the eldest daughter of actor-turned-politician Arnold Schwarzenegger, started dating a mere seven months ago.

Pratt reportedly sought permission from Arnold and Katherine’s mother Maria Shriver ahead of the proposal.

Katherine gave fans a first look at her diamond engagement ring as she flashed the huge band during a lunch date in California on Tuesday.

Others stars who were quick to congratulate the pair included Tom Holland and Priyanka Chopra, who recently tied the knot with Nick Jonas at a lavish ceremony in India.
