American actor Ben Indra was once married to actress Anna Faris. Ben has been in a number of TV shows and movies as an actor. But the one part that brought him notoriety was that of “Josh” in the television series “Raising Dad.” Despite receiving praise for his efforts in the series, Ben continued to have difficulty landing big acting roles. This was among the factors that led to his divorce. In 2004, Ben and Anna tied the knot. Nevertheless, their 2008 divorce was brought on by disparities in their professional lives. While Anna was still married to Ben, there were rumors that she started an affair with actor Chris Pratt. Their marriage suffered as a result of this as well.
Career of Ben Indra
Ben was born in Sonoma County, California, on February 23, 1979, as Benjamin Jeffery Indra. In 1999, he started his acting career. He made his feature film debut as “Bradley” in the independent American slasher (a kind of horror) film “Lovers Lane.” Ben starred as “Mike McCready” in the horror-fantasy film “Voodoo Academy” in 2000. He starred as “Kelby” in the film “Tempest Eye” that same year.
2001 was a successful year for Ben because he received his first major acting project in that year. He appeared in 20 episodes of the comedy series “Raising Dad,” which aired on “The WB,” as the recurrent character “Josh.” The audience was quite appreciative of his work. ‘Colefax’ was Ben’s guest character in the 2005 American sitcom ‘Love, Inc.’
Personal & Family Life
Ben was once wed to the actress Anna Faris. As they were filming “Lovers Lane,” they first got together. After a passionate affair, they eventually tied the knot on June 3, 2004. Several aspects regarding their relationship were disclosed by Anna in her 2017 book “Unqualified.” Ben was totally enamored with Anna’s disposition. Twice had he asked her to marry him. Ben had even asked Anna’s father for his blessing before making the proposal. During a lunch date, he had proposed to Anna for the first time. It turned out that he had brought her to an antique jewelry store and asked her to select a ring on her own. Despite Anna’s rejection of the offer, their lunch appointment went ahead. Ben had asked her to marry him on one knee at the “Mondrian Hotel” a few months later, and Anna had answered “yes.”
Regretfully, their marriage did not end happily. Ben and Anna eventually decided to get a divorce after their relationship worsened. Their disparities in their respective fields of expertise appear to have caused the breakup. Ben was still having trouble with his acting profession, whereas Anna was doing quite well. The second factor was Anna’s developing intimacy with Chris Pratt, her co-star. When Anna’s marriage was failing, she met Chris. She regretted marrying a struggling actor because of Chris’s endearing nature. In April of 2007, Anna made her divorce filing. Finalization occurred in February 2008. Anna consented to make a settlement payment of $900,000. In December of 2007, they also liquidated their house.
2009 saw Anna wed Chris. In August of 2012, their son Jack was delivered prematurely. But the pair split up in 2017, and their divorce was officially formalized in 2018.
