Chris Pratt says he got a lung infection after smoking cigars with Arnold Schwarzenegger
Chris Pratt and his wife Katherine Schwarzenegger had a baby, Eloise, in May 2022.
The actor said he smoked cigars with his father-in-law, Arnold Schwarzenegger, to celebrate.
Pratt said that he got a lung infection after smoking a Cohiba with Arnold.
Chris Pratt is already having a very busy year with "The Super Mario Bros. Movie" and "Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3" arriving in theaters within a month of each other, but he's also found time to relax with his family.
The star married his wife, Katherine Schwarzenegger, back in 2019 and in May 2022 they celebrated the birth of their second child, Eloise Christina Schwarzenegger Pratt.
Pratt's wife, Katherine, is the daughter of famous bodybuilder and actor Arnold Schwarzenegger, and the "Guardians" star recently told "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon" what it's like having Arnie as his father-in-law.
Pratt pointed out that Schwarzenegger isn't called grandpa in the family, explaining: "He goes by Opa. You know, he's Austrian. German. Opa is 'grandfather' in German. So he goes by Opa."
When Fallon said that Schwarzenegger taught him how to smoke a cigar, Pratt said that he couldn't say no to smoking with "The Terminator" and "Total Recall" star.
He said: "Yeah, he kind of taught me too. I mean there's nothing manlier than Arnold Schwarzenegger smoking a cigar. And when you're part of, you know, bringing his granddaughter into the world, he comes and brings you a cigar. And he's like, 'Let's go out and smoke these.'"
Pratt said that although he has asthma, he wasn't going to turn Arnold down.
He said: "And I was like, 'Okay,' but I have asthma so I don't like cigars. And I was like, 'You got it, Arnold!' And Katherine's like, 'What are you doing?' I was like, 'I'm fine, I'm gonna be okay.'"
Pratt joked that he played it off cool, but he woke up the next morning not feeling too great.
The star said: "So, I go and smoke the cigar and I'm like, 'This is good. Hmm. Oh, yeah. Cohiba? Nice.' And then woke up the next day. Massive lung infection."
He added: "There's peer pressure, and then there's Arnold Schwarzenegger pressure."
