Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver appeared as the ideal power couple that anyone would dare not meddle with. Yet, things fell apart after a predicament. After 25 years of being married, the actor had to face the harsh reality of separating from Maria, owing to his love affair with the housemaid, Mildred Baena. Having fathered a child apart from his family is a fact that seemed incompressible for Shriver. Hence, she filed for divorce, which was approved nearly a decade later. 

After things settled down, both the stars moved on with their lives. Therefore, speaking in an interview in May, Arnie opened up about his girlfriend Heather Milligan. The bodybuilding legend expressed his love and affection for his 48-year-old partner publicly while also hinting at his current relationship with Shriver.
