Arnold Schwarzenegger And Maria Shriver Officially Divorced After 10 Years
Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver will split their $400 million estate.
It has been 10 years since Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver separated. On Tuesday, their divorce became official in Los Angeles Court. The divorce had been mediated by a private judge, who signed off on the divorce at the beginning of December. To be finalized, it had to enter the court system by a sitting judge. This is what happened Tuesday morning.
There have been a few reasons as to why the divorce took so long but a complicated property agreement was at the top of the list. This exact settlement is private but it is estimated to be upwards of $400 million. Schwarzenegger and Shriver did not have any prenuptial agreements but the estate will likely be split right down the middle.
Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver remained cordial over the last decade. Despite being in different relationships over time, the two have attended gatherings with their four children. Joseph Baena is Schwarzenegger’s son who he fathered with the family’s housekeeper. This is the reason the two became separated.
Baena is now 24 years old and has made headlines for looking just like his father. Banea is in incredible shape and even has ambitions of becoming an actor. If he wants to continue down a fitness path, Baena has a leg up being the son of the greatest bodybuilder of all-time.
Shriver filed for divorce on July 1, 2011 with the intention of keeping the news as quiet as possible. Schwarzenegger claimed that he did not know Baena, who was born in 1996, was his biological son at first. Mildred Baena, the family housekeeper, and her husband also separated shortly after Baena was born.
Maria Shriver is a journalist and member of the Kennedy family. She is the former First Lady of California from when Schwarzenegger was Governor. Shriver and Schwarzenegger were both in politics during their marriage.
Arnold Schwarzenegger made a name for himself in America upon coming from Austria. His incredible size and passion for bodybuilding led to seven Olympia titles. Following his career in bodybuilding, Schwarzenegger became an actor and politician. He remains an influential voice in bodybuilding while hosting his annual Arnold Sports Festival. This began in 1989 when it was named after him.
Both Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver will split the estate and go on with the relationship they currently have. After 10 years apart, the two have made it work and made it clear that their children are most important.
