Scary Movie's Anna Faris and Chris Pratt divorced in 2018 after eight years of marriage.
Anna Faris' podcast was a lifeline after her divorce from Chris Pratt in 2018.
The 49-year-old actress said the breakup with the 46-year-old actor after eight years of marriage made her want to live a life free of public judgment.
She told Variety: "I was feeling sad.
"I do feel like I had enough gumption, enough of a core, and I have tried to be careful about how much Hollywood infiltrates, but now I’ve been on a spectrum of fame for 26 years, so I would be naïve to think that it hasn’t shaped who I am at this point.
"But, f***. The scrutiny."
The Scary Movie icon - who has a 13-year-old son named Jack with Chris - found comfort in building a "secret community" with her podcast, Anna Faris Is Unqualified.
She continued: "I’m lucky that at that time I had my podcast [Unqualified]. That goes back to the talk radio. I wanted, like, four people to listen and to build my own secret community.
"I wanted an avenue outside of Hollywood as a way to connect with people."
