From what little I know of Chris Pratt and Katherine Schwarzenegger, they’re both pretty religious. Katherine was raised Catholic, like all of the Kennedy clan, but faith-watchers have noticed that she seems to be experimenting with churches outside of Catholicism. Pratt’s religion is a bit up for grabs, I think? He seems to be more of an Evangelical, but like an Evangelical California-style. Which would basically be Unitarian in the South. There’s some talk of how Chris belongs to Hillsong, which is that cult-like church in LA with tons of celebrity faithful. Chris and Katherine have been pap’d on their way into church many a Sunday, so their faith is clearly something they share with each other. So, no surprise, Chris and Katherine are planning on a “religious wedding.”
Chris Pratt and Katherine Schwarzenegger‘s shared spirituality will play a major role in their marriage. The couple, who announced their engagement on Monday, bonded over their Christian faith early on and a source tells PEOPLE in this week’s issue that it will be front and center at their wedding.
“They’re going to want a religious wedding,” says a source. “I know that Chris does, and I assume that she does, too. God is going to be a part of this marriage.”
Another insider close to Schwarzenegger, 29, adds the two likely won’t wait long before tying the knot.
“They are one of those rare couples that you root for from the beginning. It won’t be a long engagement — Katherine has already talked about having a summer 2019 wedding.”
Pratt, 39, loves that Schwarzenegger doesn’t shy away from discussing her beliefs openly, the first source tells PEOPLE.
“He’s constantly around other people who have no faith or are apologetic about it, but not her. She is willing to talk about it to anyone who will listen.”
“He’s constantly around other people who have no faith or are apologetic about it, but not her…” Why do Christians always have to act so friggin’ martyred? There are literally tens of millions of Christians in this country and hundreds of millions of Christians in the world. But if you ever meet one of these Evangelical-types (like Pratt), they speak as if THEY are the most marginalized people in the world. Is it really so shocking that a Christian dude found a Christian lady to marry? No. It’s not. As for the religious summer wedding… called it. My prediction is a June wedding. And I bet the Shrivers/Kennedys will insist on a Catholic wedding, honestly.
