Arnold Schwarzenegger Begins Paying Child Support To Maria Shriver
Well, it looks like that divorce is definitely coming together. Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver are definitely not looking towards a reconciliation as the former Governor of California started paying child support to the Kennedy heiress.
Sure, Shriver is mega rich, but Arnold is still the father to their four children and worth four times what Shriver is worth. But why has he started paying child support before the divorce?
A source says, “Even though Maria is a Kennedy, and has inherited a great deal of money from her parent’s estate since their deaths, she is taking the child support. Under California law she is entitled to the child support, once either one of them files for divorce. Maria and Arnold’s lawyers have been working on a divorce settlement but in the meantime Arnold is willingly paying the money to Maria.”
And it looks as though Schwarzenegger has already begun healing his relationships with his children as well.
Check out the slideshow we put together of Arnold and his family over the years.

Arnold Schwarzenegger Reunites With His Son Patrick
Ever since news broke that Arnold Schwarzenegger had an affair and fathered an illegitimate child over ten years ago, his family has stuck together and eradicated him from their lives. His eldest son, Patrick, 17, even changed his last name to Shriver on his twitter account. But now Arnold and Patrick were spotted getting lunch together – so what gives? Are Arnold and estranged wife Maria Shriver reuniting?
On Friday (June 3) Arnold picked up Patrick to have lunch at Toscana in Brentwood, California.
Arnold and Patrick seemed really happy as they shared smiles throughout the car ride. Check out the photos here.
So does this mean Arnold and Maria may be getting back together? Not so fast. According to the Huffington Post, Arnold has reportedly hired famed divorce lawyer Robert Kaufman to handle the split with Maria.
So while it seems he is mending his relationship with his children, Arnold and Maria seem to be dunzo!
Maria Shriver Wants Kids To Forgive Their Father
If nothing else is gained out of this Arnold Schwarzenegger debacle, at least Maria Shriver will remain a noble woman.
Not only must she endure the public humility of such an affair, but she must remain strong for her children as well. And she is advising her children to forgive their father.
“As hurt as she may be, she will encourage them to forgive their father,” a family source tells Us Weekly.
Shriver and Schwarzenegger share four children, Katherine, 21, Christina, 19, Patrick, 17, and Christopher, 13.
“This family’s motto is to stick together, so they will figure out a way to do that in some level.”
I always am a big supporter of through the good and the bad. And to see this family band together and work on their issues seems like a healthy solution to such a big devastation.

Arnold Schwarzenegger’s Child Unaware His Father Is The ‘Terminator’
Talk about a life-long secret. The son Arnold Schwarzenegger had with Mildred Patty Baena was totally unaware that his father is the Terminator.
Baena kept her 13-year-old son from the truth and friends say that he referred to her boyfriend as his father.
The secret was so buried that even Baena’s sister was unaware of the truth as well.
This is all sorts of wrong. It’s one thing to not tell your own wife you had an illegitimate child. But to not even tell your own child that you are his father is beyond words.
Get ready for years of therapy by everyone involved. Is this being made into a movie yet? If not, someone should get on this pronto! It’s ratings gold!
Maria Shriver Shops For L.A. Home For The Kids
Maria Shriver reportedly looked at pricey L.A. condos this past January, 4 months before the Arnold Schwarzenegger baby scandal broke. Appararently she was looking for a new home to share with her children and protect them from media scrutiny.
It looks as though Arnold told Maria about his affair right after leaving the governor’s office on January 3.
Shriver specifically looked at The Carlyle on Wilshire, a pricey condo building near UCLA that has such tenants as Bruce Willis, Sofia Vergara, and Matt Kemp.
But Maria felt the building was too exposed to the paparazzi and is still on the hunt for the perfect home for her and her children.
