Chris Pratt and Katherine Schwarzenegger married in June 2019, and neither were surprised that their whirlwind romance took them to the altar—though The Terminator was a little surprised at first.

"We talk about that a lot because I'm pretty sure we both knew right away that this is where our relationship was headed," Schwarzenegger said on The Drew Barrymore Show. "We clicked very quickly, and so, he's the best. I'm so, so grateful. And it's so beautiful to be able to watch him, you know, step into this new role of being a girl dad.

"He's the best husband and best dad, and I feel so grateful every single day for him."

The couple welcomed daughter Lyla Maria, their first child together, last August:

Lyla is Schwarzenegger's first child, while Pratt has son named Jack with ex-wife Anna Faris, whom he was married to from 2009 until their divorce was finalized in 2018.
