The only difference between Chris and Maria is that Chris has never taken half of my money,\u201d he teased.<\/p>\n Arnold Schwarzenegger attends the ceremony honoring Chris Wallace with a star on The Hollywood Walk of Fame.

The journalist\u2019s mother, Eunice Kennedy Shriver, was the sister of the late President John F. Kennedy, Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy, and Senator Ted Kennedy.\u00a0<\/p>\n The exes, meanwhile, tied the knot\u00a0in 1986 before separating\u00a0in 2011 and finalizing their divorce in 2021.<\/p>\n Schwarzenegger and Shriver share daughters\u00a0Katherine, 35,\u00a0and Christina, 34, and sons\u00a0Patrick, 32,\u00a0and Christopher, 27.<\/p>\n Katherine Schwarzenegger, Christina Schwarzenegger, Maria Shriver, Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger, Christopher Schwarzenegger and Patrick Schwarzenegger.

Earlier this year, the author opened up\u00a0about that \u201cbrutal\u201d moment.<\/a><\/p>\n In her memoir,\u00a0\u201cI Am Maria,\u201d<\/a>\u00a0published in April, the author wrote that the news of Schwarzenegger\u2019s infidelity came after she had just lost both her parents.<\/p>\n Arnold Schwarzenegger\u2019s four kids pose together. patrickschwarzenegger\/Instagram<\/p>\n \u201cI was consumed with grief and wracked with confusion, anger, fear, sadness and anxiety,\u201d penned Shriver. \u201cI was unsure now of who I was, where I belonged. Honestly, it was brutal, and I was terrified.\u201d<\/p>\n She added, \u201cAs I sat on my hotel room floor in the dark, alone with tears streaming down my face, I thought to myself: Maria, this doesn\u2019t have to be the end of you.\u201d<\/p>\n Shriver also took a moment to reflect on the difficult period in her life.<\/p>\n Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver chat at a Kennedy Family campaign rally for Senator Ted Kennedy\u2019s 1980 Presidential bid on June 1 1980.

I used to believe that if you didn\u2019t have a partner, you must be unworthy and unlovable. I\u2019ve learned that nothing could be further from the truth.\u201d<\/p>\n Throughout the years, there has also seemingly been a rift between Schwarzenegger\u2019s kids with Shriver and Baena.<\/p>\n The \u201cDWTS\u201d alum was allegedly excluded from Patrick\u2019s wedding<\/a> earlier this month.<\/p>\n Arnold Schwarznegger and Joe Baena. joebaena\/Instagram<\/p>\n TMZ<\/a>\u00a0reported on Sept. 9 that the half brother\u00a0\u201cwasn\u2019t invited\u201d to Patrick and Abby Champion\u2019s\u00a0Sept. 6 nuptials\u00a0<\/a>in Idaho.<\/p>\n Sources told the outlet that Baena was left off the invite list since he \u201chas no relationship with that side of the Schwarzenegger fam.\u201d<\/p>\n In June, Schwarzenegger celebrated Season 2 of his Netflix series, \u201cFUBAR\u201d with his kids, but posed for pictures with them in separate groups. <\/p>\n Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver in 1986.

But for whatever reason, the other kids take [the affair] out on Joe.\u201d<\/p>\n In March, Baena also revealed why he chose to go by his mother\u2019s surname.\u00a0<\/p>\n \u201cI think the main thing is I\u2019m trying to do things on my own,\u201d the bodybuilder explained to\u00a0\u201cGood Morning Britain<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n Katherine Schwarzenegger and dad Arnold. katherineschwarzenegger\/Instagram<\/p>\n \u201cMy family is very big in supporting from afar and not being so hands-on,\u201d confessed Baena. \u201cI really appreciate that. I think it\u2019s really important growing up as a man to do things on your own. To figure it out, that\u2019s what I\u2019ve been doing.\u201d<\/p>\n Both Patrick and Baena have followed in Schwarzenegger\u2019s footsteps and pursued a career in acting.<\/p>\n Patrick recently appeared in Season 3 of \u201cThe White Lotus,\u201d while Baena starred in the action thriller \u201cGunner\u201d in 2024. <\/p>\n Arnold Schwarzenegger and future wife Maria Shriver collect donations for Senator Ted Kennedy\u2019s 1980 Presidential bid.

Luke is amazing, they\u2019re both amazing actors.\u201d<\/p>\n Meanwhile, his half-brother, Chris debuted\u00a0his drastic weight loss this past May<\/a>.<\/p>\n \u201cIt was a big process,\u201d he revealed while at the Beacher Vitality Happy & Healthy Summit in Los Angeles, per\u00a0People<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n Arnold Schwarzenegger with son Joseph in the gym.<\/p>\n \u201cI started in 2019 when I was living in Australia. I was on this big trip. I made it a big [deal] like, \u2018Oh, I\u2019m going to go out and do all this stuff, be in Australia,\u2019 and I just saw how much my weight was prohibiting me from doing the everyday activities.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Arnold Schwarzenegger said \u201cHasta la vista, baby\u201d to his capital.
