Entertainment gossip and news from Newsweek's network of contributors

Anna Faris revealed that her 11-year-old son, Jack, is going through a big milestone in his young life — and she did so with her trademark sense of humor.

The Scary Movie franchise actress — who shares her preteen son with ex-husband Chris Pratt — talked about how quickly Jack's been going up in a recent interview on the Today show.

While telling hosts Hoda Kotb and Justin Sylvester that it's easy to get nostalgic about your child's earlier years — "You miss it sometimes when you look at old photos," she divulged — "I think I'm really loving this age," Faris said, before quipping: "Although, he told me that he has an armpit hair. So, it's happening."

The Mom alum — who is also stepmom to husband Michael Barrett's two children — has gushed about her coparenting relationship with Pratt, despite some fans' opinions that the Parks & Recreation alum has shaded Faris before.

"We're all getting much closer, and I so appreciate that," the House Bunny star told People in November 2022 of Pratt and his wife, Katharine Schwarzenegger — who is currently pregnant with her and Pratt's third child. "They're very protective of me, and I want to be very protective of them. I so appreciate their support."

Faris also gushed specifically over how Schwarzenegger stepped into the stepmom role beautifully.

"I love how she is with Jack," the Just Friends actress remarked.

Pratt, for his part, came under fire in 2021 after publicly praising Schwarzenegger for giving him "an amazing life [and] a gorgeous healthy daughter." Some interpreted the "healthy" remark as shade against Faris because son Jack was born premature.

Pratt, for his part, thought the backlash was so "f***ed up" it made him cry, he later told Men's Health.

"My son's gonna read that one day," the actor shared. "It really f***ng bothered me, dude. I cried about it. I was like, 'I hate that these blessings in my life are — to the people close to me — a real burden.'"
