Pratt, who is seemingly a fan of announcing his relationship status on Instagram, confirmed his involvement with Schwarzenegger in an Instagram post celebrating her 29th birthday in December last year.

"Your smile lights up the room. I've cherished our time together. Thrilled God put you in my life. Thankful for the laughs, kisses, talks, hikes, love, and care," he wrote.

Pratt was previously married to fellow actor Anna Faris — with whom he has a six-year-old son, Jack — for nine years before the coupled divorced in August 2017.

"Divorce sucks," Pratt told Entertainment Weekly last year. "But at the end of the day, we've got a great kid who's got two parents who love him very much."

A report suggested that the couple broke up due to differences in their perspectives on family life, but the stars have remained friendly since splitting.
