TMZ - Arnold Schwarzenegger fathered a baby with a member of his household staff, and that is what sent Maria Shriver packing
... and right into the office of a powerful financial adviser to get
her affairs in order to end her marriage, TMZ has learned.
Sources say Maria was distraught after learning Arnold pulled a John
Edwards. The baby mama worked for the family for two decades, retired
and received a severance package, according to the L.A. Times.
The baby was born more than a decade ago, but until recently Maria thought the father was the woman's husband at the time.
Schwarzenegger
told The Times, "After leaving the governor's office I told my wife
about this event, which occurred over a decade ago. I understand and
deserve the feelings of anger and disappointment among my friends and
family. There are no excuses and I take full responsibility for the hurt
I have caused. I apologized to Maria, my children and my family. I am
truly sorry."
Maria has no comment.
TMZ heard about the
baby 5 days ago, but everyone in the Schwarzenegger camp was denying
it. But sources told us Maria was "completely distraught" yet
determined to move on with her life. She has not pulled the trigger to
end her marriage on the legal side, but she has been working with a very
powerful financial adviser who has been helping her position herself
for a divorce.
We believe -- though have not confirmed -- there
is a prenup, but the couple has been together so long the effectiveness
of it is problematic.
"Eating is not Cheating" I guess Arnold was doing a little more than just eating here. Why the hell did he tell her after so long? Figured he would just be happy by now that she was never going to find out.
Get your shit together Arnold, we need you back on the big screen.
