Austrain-American actor and former politician, Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver have finally dissolved their marriage after ten years since they split.
PEOPLE confirmed through court documents that the two settled their divorce at the Los Angeles Superior Court. Shriver had initially filed for divorce in July 2011 after 25 years of marriage. In May of the same year, Schwarzenegger publicly admitted he had fathered his son Joseph Baena with the family’s longtime housekeeper Mildred Baena.
When the duo announced their split in May 2011, they said their four kids were “the light and the center of both of our lives.”
“This has been a time of great personal and professional transition for each of us. After a great deal of thought, reflection, discussion, and prayer, we came to this decision together.”
A former governor of California, Arnold Schwarzenegger, and Shriver share four kids together: daughters Katherine Schwarzenegger Pratt, Christina, and sons Patrick and Christopher. Schwarzenegger’s also has another son Joseph.
In March 2017, in an interview with Men’s Journal, Schwarzenegger revealed that he thinks about the affair “every so often.” However, he still maintains a cordial relationship with his ex-wife.
