Romance is in the air for actress Anna Faris, who split from her husband, "Guardians of the Galaxy" and "Jurassic World" actor Chris Pratt. Back in August, the pair took to their official social media accounts to announce that they were "legally separating" after they "tried hard for a long time" to make the marriage work. The pair has a five-year-old son together.
Following their separation, Faris and Pratt are undergoing couples therapy to become better co-parents to their son, Jack. But both of them have been spotted without their wedding rings, which probably means they're pushing through with the divorce.
While Pratt keeps busy with his film projects, Faris is gearing up for the release of her memoir, "Anna Faris is Unqualified," which hits bookshelves on October 24. Despite her busy schedule, though, the actress is still finding time to socialize and spend time with people she cares about. In fact, it may be possible that she has gotten back into the dating scene already. Faris was recently spotted with cinematographer Michael Barrett, who according to E! News worked on Faris' upcoming film, "Overboard."
Actress dating a new man?
E! News reported that Anna Faris was recently spotted at Italian restaurant Modo Mio in Los Angeles, where she dined with Michael Barrett. The pair were spotted having some wine on the restaurant's patio.
An eyewitness said that it definitely looked "like a date," as the pair seemed to be having fun and laughing. The pair were once again seen at Modo Mio the following day, where they had some pasta and salad along with their wine. Could it have been that the food was so good that they just had to go back for seconds?
Faris and Pratt split because of schedule conflicts
Anna Faris and Chris Pratt's split broke hearts the world over, with fans taking to Twitter to express their sadness over the news. An insider told PEOPLE that the main reason for the separation was that "work separations have taken a toll, and it is not likely that the marriage can be repaired enough to work right now." Nonetheless, the source said that there's still love between the pair, given that they were married since 2009 and share a five-year-old son, Jack.
Over the last few years, Pratt's career burgeoned, with not one but two blockbuster hits to his name: "Guardians of the Galaxy" and "Jurassic World." As for Faris, she is still acting and is the host of the "Unqualified" podcast. She's also gearing up for the release of her memoir, "Anna Faris is Unqualified" this October 24.
