  • Katherine Schwarzenegger and Chris Pratt are expecting their first baby together.
  • The couple got married at the San Ysidro Ranch in Santa Barbara, California on June 8, 2019.
  • Pratt has a son, Jack, from his previous marriage to Anna Faris.

Congratulations are in order! Katherine Schwarzenegger is expecting her first baby with husband Chris Pratt.

People confirmed the happy news on Saturday, with sources previously telling the publication that the couple wanted to "expand their family as soon as possible." Schwarzenegger married Pratt in June 2019 after a whirlwind romance.

There's no word yet of when Schwarzenegger and Pratt's baby is due, but the news is sure to brighten everyone's weekends.

Rumors that Pratt had started dating Schwarzenegger began in June 2018 when the pair was spotted on a picnic together. By January 2019, Pratt had popped the question. And just a year after news of their relationship first broke, the happy couple was tying the knot.

In January 2019, a source revealed to People, "Instead of mostly enjoying solo, romantic dates, Chris’ son from early on was a very big part of their dating life."

The source continued, "Katherine is like a big kid and loves doing activities with Jack. She loves that Chris is a dad... Seeing Chris with Jack made Katherine positive from early on that Chris is 'the one.'"

As for why the couple's relationship works so well, a source also told People, "They’re very compatible and have a lot in common... Family is very important to both of them, as well as their spirituality."
