    Chris Pratt and Katherine Schwarzenegger went to a barn on their first date

    The 46-year-old movie star began dating Katherine, 35, back in 2018, and the author has now opened up about their first-ever date.


    Katherine - who is the eldest daughter of Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver - told Extra: "I took him to the barn on the first date.

    "We didn't even know each other and he was trying to figure out where we should go on our first date."

    Katherine drove up to Carpinteria in California to introduce Chris to her horse.

    She added: "It was definitely a risk to take like a five-hour drive with someone that you don't know, but it lended itself to a lot of talking and conversation."

    Chris and Katherine actually met for the first time at church, and the movie star previously joked that he was "sneaking glances" at his future wife.

    During an appearance on The Drew Barrymore Show, Chris shared: "You kind of don't want to be like, 'Whoa, who is that?' at church, you know what I mean. But I was kind of sneaking some glances and I was like, 'Who is that? Any way, what am I doing? Come on, I'm broken, help me.'"

    Chris explained that their relationship moved at a rapid pace.

    The film star also described Katherine as the "woman of [his] dreams".

    Chris said: "God has a fast-forward button When it's right, boom. You fall in love, you get married. Now we have two beautiful daughters to add to my family.

    "My own journey, finding a higher power and leaning on that and being like, 'please save me,' and then feeling saved. And then shortly later finding the woman of my dreams."

    Chris also joked about his relationship with his father-in-law.

    The actor - who married Katherine back in 2019 - quipped: "There's peer pressure, and then there's Arnold Schwarzenegger peer pressure."
