Chris Pratt and his wife Katherine Schwarzenegger welcome their third child together and the name is a sweet nod to their great uncle JFK

Chris Pratt and his wife Katherine Schwarzenegger have officially become parents of three and welcomed their third child, a baby boy, into the world.

Schwarzenegger announced Monday that she gave birth to a son named Ford Fitzgerald Pratt on Friday, November 8.

“We are overjoyed to announce the birth of our son, Ford Fitzgerald Pratt,” she captioned the post. “Mom and baby are doing well and Ford’s siblings are excited about his arrival.” We feel so blessed and grateful. “I love Katherine and Chris,” the couple wrote in a joint post.

The name appears to be a reference to the late former President John F. Kennedy, whose middle name was Fitzgerald.

The best-selling author, the daughter of Maria Shriver and Arnold Schwarzenegger, is JFK’s great-niece.

The Jurassic World actor, 45, and Katherine, 34, already have two daughters together: Lyla, four, and Eloise, two. He is also father to 12-year-old son Jack, whom he shares with his ex-wife Anna Faris.

DailyMail.com has reached out to both representatives but has not yet received a response.

At the beginning of June this year, it was announced that the author was expecting baby number three – and the couple notably waited until the birth of their child to find out the gender.

During an interview on “Today” last month in October, the topic of the baby’s gender came up and Pratt simply stated, “We don’t know.” I have my son Jack and then the two girls. So we don’t know. We are waiting.’

However, the actor added: “I have a feeling. I have an intuition, but I’m not going to say what it is in case I’m wrong and the child sees it. One day, child, you will know. I knew it.’

After the baby news came to light, Katherine was spotted showing off her growing baby bump on various outings and on social media.

In July, Arnold Schwarzenegger’s daughter beamed a happy smile as she showed off her growing bump in a pink gingham jumpsuit.

Last week, both Chris and Katherine were spotted strolling together in Los Angeles – after the actor faced backlash for voicing his views on the presidential election.

During the day out, Schwarzenegger was seen in a figure-hugging black bodysuit that showed off her baby bump.

Back in May, the Guardians Of The Galaxy star revealed the “huge difference” between raising his son and daughters and being open about parenthood.

During an interview with E! he raved about his children! News while promoting his animated film The Garfield Movie.

“I hate to make generalizations based on gender, but in my experience girls are more emotional.” You have me wrapped around your finger. “It’s wild,” Pratt told the outlet.

He added that both his son and daughters are “cuddly and cuddly,” but explained that his girls “don’t like to run around the apartment that much.”

Chris explained: “I hit them with a pillow and they say, ‘Dad, that hurt my feelings.’ “They prefer hearing stories to wrestling.”

The star also explained that his daughters “emulate their mother, who is incredibly organized.”

“But even the differences between my two daughters show that every child is a little different.”

Pratt later explained why he enjoyed taking on his latest role as Garfield, explaining that voice acting “offers the kind of roles that allow me to be at home.”

“It works well to have a job that allows me to put my kids to bed at night and be present.” “Doing dubbing work means it’s a film that doesn’t require me to be on the road .”

Pratt began dating Katherine in the summer of 2018, and the couple tied the knot in June of the following year.

Their first daughter, Lyla, was welcomed into the world in 2020 and their second baby girl was born in May 2022.

He was also married to actress Anna Faris from 2009 to 2018 – and the former couple has their son Jack.

Over the last two Mother’s Day holidays, social media users pointed out that Chris neglected to call Faris.

Last year, the Passengers actor was called “trash” and “the worst” for leaving his ex-wife out of his Mother’s Day tribute.

It wasn’t long before he found himself embroiled in controversy for praising his wife Katherine for giving him a “beautiful, healthy daughter” after the birth of Eloise.

Some social media users speculated that his words were a dig at Anna Faris after her son Jack was born prematurely and struggled with health problems.

Pratt admitted the backlash caused him an emotional reaction. “This sucks.” My son will read this one day. He is nine. And it’s set in digital stone,” he said at the time.

Katherine has also opened up about motherhood and how she feels asking for help while juggling parenting and work.

During a lunch event last year, she said, according to People, “I’m a big believer in that – I feel like on Instagram we see all these moms saying, ‘I do everything, I do everything.’ I do “Everything by myself,” blah-blah and I think, “I don’t want to do everything by myself.”‘

He added that both his son and daughters were “cuddly and cuddly,” but explained that his girls “don’t like to run around the house that much”; seen in October in NYC

“I want to lean on my sister, I want to lean on my mom, I want to lean on my friends, my mom’s friends.”

Schwarzenegger added: “I want to be honest and transparent and also say, ‘I can’t do this today. My child is sick. She was awake all night and was teething. I have to become a mother right now.”

“So I think you can talk openly about the fact that you don’t have to do everything, that you can rely on people, that you can enlist the help of others, and that’s not a problem.”

“I think that’s a big struggle for women in general, but I think especially when you’re juggling multiple roles, it’s like saying, ‘I need help today,’ and that’s okay.”
