Trolls are harassing Chris Pratt’s Passengers co-star Jennifer Lawrence, blaming her for his recent shock split with wife Anna Faris.
This follows rumours of Chris and Jennifer hooking up while filming the 2016 sci-fi drama. The pair were great friends on set and showed sparkling onscreen chemistry, however these rumours were firmly and repeatedly denied.
Anna even invited Jennifer onto her podcast Anna Faris is Unqualified to chat about the hurt the accusations caused. It was here Anna opened up about feeling vulnerable and insecure when her marriage came under scrutiny.
You can watch the couple demonstrate their comedic stylings together in the clip below:

This show of solidarity hushed the gossipers up for a while, but rumours are now circulating in full force in the aftermath of Chris and Anna’s heart breaking divorce announcement.
Chris and Anna’s eight-year-marriage looked perfect from the outside. In the words of Jennifer Lawrence herself, they looked ‘like a Nicholas Sparks novel’.
Funny, self deprecating and honest, it’s fair to say their split has left us wondering if there is any real love left in the world…
Fans are therefore naturally curious about how the fairy-tale union dissolved, despite the couple’s wishes to keep things as private as possible.
Anna and I are sad to announce we are legally separating. We tried hard for a long time, and we’re really disappointed. …

But the Twitter finger is currently being pointed firmly at the 26-year-old The Hunger Games actress, despite a lack of any solid evidence…

Chris Pratt and Anna Farris are filing for divorce. I feel like Jennifer Lawrence has a role in this. Bitch has a role in everything.

I give it 6 weeks before it's announced Jennifer Lawrence & Chris Pratt are dating after his split from Anna Faris

Going through a divorce or a long-term break up is incredibly sad and painful, especially when rumours start to whirl.
So let’s just hope Chris and Anna can come through this relatively unscathed and that people stop pointing the finger without any evidence to back up their accusations.
