Chris Pratt and Anna Faris may have finalized their divorce finally, but they are still going to be intimates, thanks to a divorce agreement that TMZ got its hands on.

Per their signed contract, Pratt and Faris must live no more than five miles apart until their 6-year-old son Jack completes the sixth grade. If one of them wants to move, they must give the other party written notice three months in advance; even if they want to travel out of the country with Jack they must provide 30 days’ notice. 

Out-of-state jaunts require “reasonable” notice. The pair filed for divorce in December. According to evidence gathered on social media, they will have no issues sticking to these directives. If anything, they seem closer than ever, choosing to trick-or-treat with each other, Jack, and their respective romantic partners. Pratt is dating Katherine Schwarzenegger, and Faris is dating Michael Barrett
