The engagement news comes just seven months after Anna’s ex-husband Chris Pratt remarried again.
The Avengers actor tied the knot with Arnold Schwarzenegger’s daughter Katherine back in June, taking to Instagram to announce their happy news.
Anna was married to the Guardians of the Galaxy star for nine years and the duo share seven-year-old son Jack together.
They pair confirmed their separation back in 2017, writing in a statement on Twitter, ‘We are sad to announce we are legally separating.
‘We tried hard for a long time, and we’re really disappointed.’
‘Our son has two parents who love him very much and for his sake we want to keep this situation as private as possible moving forward,’ they continued.
‘We still love each other and will always cherish our time together. Anna Faris and Chris Pratt.’
So lovely that the couple have both found love again!
Big congrats to Anna and Michael on their exciting engagement news!
