Oh Ah-nold! The sad news of the Schwarenegger/Shriver split now comes with a twist. The former Governor of California revealed to his wife that he had been having an affair with a longtime family staff member who had recently retired – and had fathered her child.

Shriver moved out of the family Brentwood home after finding this out directly from her husband. Schwarzenegger stated this happened over 10 years ago, and the woman has never stepped forward to reveal his secret, choosing to say the child was hers from a previous marriage.

Oddly enough, it appears Schwarzenegger sought office after he’d fathered this child. He has supported the child all of these years, and that apparently didn’t slow him down either (remember the numerous “groping” complaints?)
