Chris Pratt and the Great LA Fire Debacle: A Story of Miracles, Misfortune, and Mildly Awkward Ex-Household Dynamics

Buy Me A Coffee

Chris Pratt, the Guardians of the Galaxy star who never misses leg day or a chance to remind us he’s wholesome, dropped some emotional news about his ex-wife Anna Faris and the Los Angeles fires. Turns out, the flames were playing favorites, and the Pratt-Faris household wasn’t spared from the drama.

On Wednesday, January 22 (mark your calendars), the 45-year-old Hollywood hunk took to social media to give us a front-row seat to his “I can’t believe this is my life” moment. He was finally stepping back into his home after evacuating during the fiery chaos that had California doing its best impression of Mordor.

And here’s the kicker: while Chris’s house was still standing like the lone survivor in a disaster movie, Anna Faris’s home, unfortunately, didn’t make it. Yep, the flames had no chill and took her house down.

Chris hit Instagram with a video that had all the emotional weight of a Pixar movie and none of the cute talking animals. “Miraculously, it’s still standing. By the grace of God, we have four walls and a roof,” he said about his own home, probably while low-key side-eyeing a framed picture of his good karma. But then he brought the mood down faster than a deflating balloon, adding that the situation was “truly devastating.”

He didn’t stop there. Oh no, Chris gave us the full rundown of the apocalyptic aftermath. “Silver lining: my house was saved,” he began, in what felt like a brief moment of relief before hitting us with, “but so many people’s houses were burned around us, and the community’s gone. My son’s school is gone. My son’s mom’s house burned down.”

Pause for dramatic effect.

“Dozens of our friends lost their homes. It’s just wild,” he added, painting a picture so bleak even Eeyore would be like, “Dude, lighten up.” But in classic Chris Pratt fashion, he wasn’t going to leave us hanging in despair. He wrapped things up with a Hallmark-worthy message of hope: “We’re resilient, and we trust in God and consider it all a blessing.”

Chris Pratt’s house? Miraculously standing. Anna Faris’s house? Tragically toast. But hey, if anyone can make lemonade out of these charred lemons, it’s this guy. Let’s just hope the next time Chris shares big news, it’s about a Guardians of the Galaxy musical or something equally uplifting.
