From 2004 to 2008, Faris was married to actor Ben Indra. This was followed by her marriage to Chris Pratt in 2009, resulting in their 9-year-old son, Jack. However, the couple called it quits in 2018. Faris remarked on her journey through these turbulent times, humorously dubbing herself a "divorce veteran".
The end of her marriage to Indra triggered a transformation in Faris. "I found myself in this apartment with just beer and mustard in the fridge. I was going out all the time. I had no one to text or call," Faris confessed. This new chapter resembled her teenage years, which she described as "incredibly liberating," albeit terrifying.
Insecurities about her self-image and her abilities as a lover bubbled to the surface. Faris admitted, "I was terrified that I wasn't a good lover. Especially when I was younger, I was so self-conscious of my body."

It feels like I can be loved," Faris revealed, recognizing a healthier dynamic in her current relationship compared to her younger years, where she seemed to enjoy the chase more than the catch.
