Katherine Schwarzenegger Pratt’s Picture-Perfect Life

[Anonymous]

Must be nice to live a perfect life. She writes that her childhood was perfect. Her marriage is perfect. No complaints. Had a baby around the same time as her and my life is anything but perfect!

Hmm. I don't like men who leave their first wives to chase after someone a little younger, a little richer and more connected.

She’s an evangelical. Part of it is to sell the lifestyle as beautiful and perfect. Why? Bc that’s a woman’s only job: to be beautiful and look happy next to her husband.

No one grew up in a perfect household when your dad was nailing the cleaning lady.

How tedious.

Oh, I missed that part. Makes sense.

Chris Pratt is a tool and Katherine has a half-brother from her dad’s affair that she ignores. No one believes her life is perfect.

I think the subtext is the article is that she’s deluding herself.

How often does her husband see his special needs child with Anna Farris?

I also did not understand the point of the article. Is she selling us her happiness? Why do we care? Is it a humblebrag? Is the NYT mocking her? Or is it a piece they had to do as a favor for her well connected family and spouse?

Don’t get me wrong- have nothing against them. Just don’t understand why a relative nobody is in the NYT gloating about her life.

Her dad bangerd the housekeeper and had a secret love-child and the parents weren’t talking and most kids were estranged from Arnold. Patrick even changed his last name to Shriver. It seems things have smoothed over a bit, but that’s hardly perfect. And she’s the second wife.

methinks the lady doth protest too much

I’m going to call BS on this lol. Her dad literally had a baby with another woman who worked in their house. Like I would not want that type of perfect childhood.

Also Chris Pratt is a serially bad pet owner so I can’t imagine he’s much of a husband or father. But she actually kind of reminds me of Beyonce in that she grew up in a financially comfortable environment where everyone is put together and attractive when behind the scenes the dad is fathering outside babies and they both ended up married to men that share obvious characteristics with their dads.

This feels like the title of a self-help book I would actually read.

Interesting, I assumed she was catholic. Did she become evangelical when she met Chris Pratt?

She seems to be promoting her new children's book.
