Chris Pratt has blamed Arnold Schwarzenegger for his reoccurring health problems, explaining he's the reason why he gets lung infections every now and then.

Pratt is married to Schwarzenegger's daughter, Katherine Schwarzenegger, with the couple sharing three children together.

But it was after the birth of each of their kids that Pratt explained he came down with a mystery illness - and apparently it's all his father-in-law's fault.

Appearing on The Graham Norton Show on Friday (28 February), Pratt spoke about Schwarzenegger's cigar habit, explaining that after the birth of his kids, his father-in-law would show up with a Cuban cigar.

“He’s always smoking one on set, in his car, and in my living room,” he said.

“When we have a baby, he shows up with a Cuban cigar. I have asthma, so I should not ever smoke cigars, but I do because I feel pressure from Arnold Schwarzenegger.

“So, every time we have a child, at about two weeks we smoke the cigar and at about three weeks, I have a lung infection. It’s a nice little ritual we have, a custom!”

It seems that Pratt is pretty close with his in-laws, with the actor - who's recently been promoting his new movie The Electric State - opening up about the experience of watching his brother-in-law Patrick Schwarzenegger’s newest full-frontal scene in The White Lotus.

Patrick Schwarzenegger has been making headlines for his role in the newest season of The White Lotus, where his character has a bizarre incestual storyline.

While it is not clear whether Schwarzenegger had a body double or prosthetic, that has not stopped Pratt from weighing in on his brother-in-law’s penis.

Pratt said in an interview with E! News when asked about the controversial scene: “I know where my eyes went — I’m not blood related to him, I was looking at that dick, bro.

“No, he looks amazing. Obviously, he’s a physical specimen, but also he’s a really solid actor, because the character he’s playing is completely different than who he is.”

It wasn't just Pratt who spoke about the scene, with Schwarzenegger also commenting on his son's big moment.

He said: “I was so pumped to take a break from filming to celebrate @patrickschwarzenegger at the White Lotus Season 3 premiere.

“What a show! I could claim to be surprised to find out he has a nude scene, but what can I say - the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.”
