Separation recently came for the married couple of 25 years, Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver. It was recently discovered that Schwarzenegger, former governor of California, has been secretly paying full child support for a child of which he fathered with a past member of his household staff before his 2003 election. Although he now takes full responsibility for his wrong-doings and confessed the news to his wife after leaving office in January, it seems as if it's about a decade too late. Ms. Shriver and their 4 children, devastated after finding out the news, have apparently moved out of the couple's home and into a hotel. I feel extremely sorry for this family after hearing this terrible and surprising news and I can only imagine what they must be going through and how betrayed they must feel. Also certainly surprised are the fans of Arnold Schwarzenegger as an actor and political leader whom many looked up to. There seems to be sort of a pattern forming within the government. I mean, this certainly isn't the first situation the U.S. has faced in which someone in the government has cheated on their spouse and I'm sure it isn't the last.

I wonder what the maid was going through when she was pregnant with his kid? Was it hard for her knowing that she couldn't say who the father was and had to keep her child a secret?
I wonder if the KID knew! Imagine, waking up one day and realizing your dad is Schwarzenegger. Jeez, I'd freak out.
I watched it this morning and this is crazy! How can he hide a family to his wife? What is he thinking? How long did he think he could hide this?
This would have been the best episode of Maury ever. But seriously, what kind of person does that? It's not fair to his wife, to his family, or to his lovechild. Men these days.
