Arnold Schwarzenegger, scandal by illegitimate son
"Terminator" actor Arnold Schwarzenegger stepped down as governor of the State of California in early 2011. After that, it was thought that he would return to film work, but a scandal that destroyed his marriage preempted any project. Here we will tell you about the life and falls of [...]
In a few days Arnold Schwarzenegger has seen how his wife leaves the house, the media criticizes him and his popularity drops from him. All because of the appearance of a son he had out of wedlock while he was alive and married to his current wife, the journalist Maria Shriver.
This was a big fall for the actor who, in addition to having marked the lives of many people with his character in the movie "Terminator", was governor of the State of California in two periods. Arnold Schwarzenegger has had to travel a long way to reach that point of popularity.
The beginning
Arnold Schwarzenegger grew up in a small town in Austria where he started training as a bodybuilder thinking that this was the path to a better life (he was right).
The young Austrian arrived in the United States at the age of 21, just at the time when "bodybuilding" began to have a following and became a respected sport. Schwarzenegger became the number 1 in the sport, the winner of all titles and the bearer of the nickname "Austrian Oak".
Schwarzenegger had already conquered the world of bodybuilding and now he was looking for new goals. Thus he sought to show his imposing physique in the cinema. His first role was that of “Hercules” in the movie “Hercules in New York”. He continued to make unsuccessful films like "The Villain" and "Conan the Barbarian."
Hollywood success
The role that would change him came from director James Cameron. The film about a cyborg sent from the future to kill a woman was a worldwide success. The Terminator, which would later become a trilogy and multiple video games, made Arnold Schwarzenegger a Hollywood star.
After the great acceptance of the film, Schwarzenegger was consolidated as an actor who took many people to the movies and for the same reason, he could do whatever he wanted. And he did. He began acting in family comedies such as "Twins" opposite Danny Devito, "A Detective in Kindergarten", "Promised Gift" and "Junior".
Governor
But Arnold Schwarzenegger still aspired to more. In 2003 he suspended his career in the film industry to become the Governor of the State of California representing the Republican Party.
For his most memorable character of all "terminator", the actor earned the nickname "governator" now that he was in politics. During his mandate, he had great popularity in the state, which allowed him to be re-elected to finish his job in the Governorship at the beginning of 2011.
One of the facets of him released at this time, which was criticized by some, is that of a spokesman against the use of steroids. Arnold Schwarzengger was a major steroid user in his time as a bodybuilder.
Current scandal
The first news that caught the attention of the thousands of followers of Schwarzenegger was the breakup of his relationship with the journalist Maria Shriver after 25 years. But the real scandal broke out when the actor himself announced that he had a son of about 10 years out of wedlock.
Arnold Schwarzenegger had been unfaithful to Shriver with an employee who worked for about 20 years in her family's home. The journalist was having dinner with Oprah Winfrey when she learned that everything had been made public. Although she had said that she was not referring to the subject, she decided to say that she "had a broken heart and that as her mother her concern was her children." Shriver also asked for respect for the difficult time her family is experiencing.
Schwarzengger and Shriver have 4 children ages 21, 19, 17 and 13. Patrick Schwarzenegger, 17, wrote on his Twitter profile that he "felt like shit, but he loved his family."
Mildred Baena, 50, is the mother of the actor's son. Baena worked in the Schwarzenegger-Shriver household until January of this year when the Terminator stepped down from his post as governor.
