Chris Pratt is currently gearing up for the release of his upcoming film The Super Mario Bros. Movie, in which he will voice the titular character. The popular star is married to American author Katherine Schwarzenegger and the two tied the knot in June 2019. The 43-year-old Marvel Cinematic Universe actor recently appeared as a guest on The Kelly Clarkson Show, where he opened up about his relationship with his wife.
Pratt revealed that he was at a low point in his life when he met his future wife Katherine Schwarzenegger, who is the daughter of veteran actor and politician Arnold Schwarzenegger. The two immediately felt a connection and their relationship turned Pratt's life around for the best.
As per Fox News, the actor told Kelly Clarkson:
"There was a moment in my life that I was really struggling and felt really broken,...For me, my own journey of finding a higher power and leaning on that and feeling like, 'Please save me,' and then feeling saved … and then shortly, later meeting, you know, the woman of my dreams and being like, ‘This is, wow, this feels great.’"

The actor further described how he felt when he first saw Katherine. He said:
"You kind of don't want to be like, 'Whoa, who's that?' at church,...But I was kind of sneaking some glances, and I'm wondering, 'Who is that? Anyway, what am I doing? Come on, I'm broken; help me. But who's that?' So we kind of hit it off. We didn't start dating right away, but we met there and then later on, ended up going out."
