Katherine Schwarzenegger cut a subdued figure as she stepped out makeup-free for a solo shopping trip in Montecito, just weeks after her husband Chris Pratt’s cozy reunion with ex-wife Anna Faris raised eyebrows.
The 36-year-old author was spotted leaving the upscale Pierre Lafond wine bistro looking noticeably low-key as she navigated the celebrity-filled enclave favored by Oprah, Ellen DeGeneres, and Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.
Dressed in a simple black sweater jacket and matching leggings, the mother of three clutched a small purchase while keeping her other hand tucked into her pocket.
Her chestnut hair was pulled back into a practical ponytail, with dark sunglasses shielding her eyes as she made her way down the steps.
The outing came just weeks after Pratt and Faris reunited publicly for the second time since finalizing their divorce in 2018, sparking renewed attention around the former couple.
The exes – who share 13-year-old son Jack – were seen sharing a warm hug at a charity event at St. Monica’s Catholic Church, with Schwarzenegger watching the interaction from nearby.Â

Schwarzenegger and Faris didn’t appear to interact at the charity event, though they were cordial during Pratt and Faris’s first public reunion in June.Â
Schwarzenegger, Pratt and Faris were in Santa Monica to celebrate Jack’s sixth-grade graduation at the time.Â
Pratt and Faris flanked their only son for a family photo, even sharing another hug that underlined how amicable things have become.Â
Observers noted it was a far lighter vibe than the last time the exes were seen together, back in August 2018, when they looked tense on a walk through Los Angeles.
The Guardians Of The Galaxy star, 46, and The House Bunny actress, 48, began dating in 2007.
They met while filming the 1980s-set rom-com Take Me Home Tonight.Â
They got engaged the following year and tied the knot in Indonesia in 2009, before announcing their separation in 2017.Â
Pratt filed for divorce later that year, with the split finalized on Halloween 2018.

Both have since moved on: Faris married cinematographer Michael Barrett in 2021, while Pratt wed Schwarzenegger in 2019.
In May, Pratt once again sparked fan outrage by failing to acknowledge Faris on Mother’s Day.Â
At the time, he posted a tribute to Katherine, writing: ‘How do moms do it? Seriously. It’s like running a circus, a hospital, and a five-star kitchen all at once. Our kids hit the jackpot with you, and so did I. We love you. Happy Mother’s Day, Chief!’
Fans quickly called him out for skipping Faris.Â
One asked, ‘Where’s the tribute to mother of your first child????’Â
Another wrote, ‘Anna Faris is a mother too.’Â
A third advised, ‘Please remember to acknowledge the mother or father of your child. Keep the peace at least for your child’s sake.’
Pratt has a history of omitting Faris in previous Mother’s Day posts.Â
After nearly a decade of marriage, they split in 2017, citing irreconcilable differences, though they’ve stayed close as co-parents to their 13-year-old son Jack; (pictured 2017)

In 2024, he wrote: ‘Happy Mother’s Day to all the mamas out there! Love to my Mom Kathy who set a high bar for her love, patience, humor, and the joy in motherhood.
‘And a special thank you to my darling Katherine for all you do. Witnessing you be a mom to Lyla and Eloise and a stepmom to Jack makes me fall more and more in love with you every day.’
Back in 2021, Pratt also made headlines for thanking Schwarzenegger for giving birth to ‘a beautiful, healthy daughter,’ which fans read as a slight toward Faris, who had given birth prematurely in 2014.Â
He later told Men’s Health he ‘cried’ over the backlash and called it ‘f**ed up’ as his son may see the comments ‘one day.’
Meanwhile, Faris has built her own happily-ever-after with Barrett, whom she met on the 2018 film Overboard and married in 2021.Â
Sources close to the couple say Faris and Barrett have embraced a quieter, private life together, in stark contrast to the high-profile drama that often follows Pratt. Â
Faris has thrown herself into new projects, including another Scary Movie sequel, all while keeping her co-parenting relationship with Pratt friendly.
