American actress, Anna Faris has offered an insight following her shocking split from her husband of eight years, actor Chris Pratt.
Anna and Chris, who married in 2009 after meeting on the set of Take Me Home Tonight, released a joint statement earlier this month, which read: '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 went to keep this situation as private as possible moving forward. We still love each other and will always cherish our time together, the statement read.
Anna continued her heartfelt message: 'Don't be afraid to feel your independence if things aren't right.'
'There are so many people out there, there's so much life experience, I hope you get to live it all and experience a whole lot of people,' she concluded.
The couple's shocking split was blamed upon actress Jennifer Lawrence who was rumored to have hooked up with Chris Pratt while shooting the sci-fi film, 'Passengers' but the pair vehemently denied it.
