Arnold Schwarzenegger’s Ex-Wife Maria Shriver Implemented Boxing as a Huge Part Of Her Women’s Alzheimer’s Movement

Former 7-time Mr. Olympia Arnold Schwarzenegger’s ex-wife Maria Shriver has been in the limelight recently for her project Move4Minds. The project focuses on treating and helping people suffering from diseases such as Alzheimer’s. For a long time now, Shiver has been a long-time advocate for the cure of the disease and has continued the good work over the years.

Notably, the Emmy-Award-winning producer has implemented boxing as a means to stay healthy and integrated it into her movement. Back in 2016, Shiver took to Twitter and explained how physical activities like boxing got the heart rate up, which helped in keeping the ‘brain healthy’.

“Got heart rates up boxing because cardiovascular health is key to brain health, then yoga 4 mindfulness,” she wrote.

She has dedicated most of her time to this movement, even producing the HBO series titled “The Alzheimer’s Project”. The show even included an Emmy-Award-winning segment “Grandpa, Do You know Who I Am? based on her book, “What’s Happening to Grandpa?”

Why did Arnold Schwarzenegger and Shiver get divorced?

The couple first met back in August 1977 at a tennis tournament after being introduced by NBC’s Tom Brokaw. Following this, the pair started dating and tied the knot in 1986. They also have four children together, two sons and two daughters. However, Shiver filed for divorce back in 2011 after Schwarzenegger publically admitted that he had fathered another child with the family’s longtime housekeeper, Mildred Baena.

The divorce was finalized back in 2021, almost 10 years after Shiver filed it. The couple has since been on good terms with both stating that their children and family were their first priorities and that they won’t let their divorce interfere in the lives of their children.
