"And so, it's just a godsend that he's my father-in-law."

In addition to Chriss Pratt praising Schwarzenegger, The Terminator actor recently praised Pratt in an episode of Jason Kelce and Travis Kelce's podcast, New Heights, in April. Commenting on Pratt and his daughter Katherine's bond, Arnold Schwarzenegger mentioned:

"He's a fun guy to talk to. I'm really happy that my daughter has found him. And that he has found her … they found each other. Because they fit really well together and just look wonderful together. They're so in love with each other."
