Arnold Schwarzenegger and his ex-wife Maria Shriver have five children, four of whom have followed him, while others have chosen to pursue different paths.
Arnold Schwarzenegger’s son has wowed fans with his impressive weight loss after he was spotted in a rare public appearance while out with his family – but he’s not the only son to make recent headlines.
Schwarzenegger, Christopher is the 75-year-old legendary actor’s youngest child, whom he shares with ex Maria Shriver. Heading to a family gathering on Easter Sunday, Christopher, 27, was pictured with his older brother and White Lotus star Schwarzenegger, Patrick, 31.
Christopher wore khakis and white Henleys with a dark teal Henley. His chiselled jaw was defined by stubble, while he also wore round brown glasses. A swept-back quiff, along with a new hairstyle, also appeared on him.
The son of Arnold started a fitness journey in 2020, and Patrick’s birthday party in Malibu at the time, he was the first to see him again in 2023, looking trim after leaving the gym.
Chris was then spotted on April 19, as he was seen leaving Restoration Hardware restaurant in West Hollywood where he met up with his family, including Maria, Patrick with his model fiancé Abbie Champion and their two sisters – Christina, 33, and Katherine, 35, and her actor husband Chris Pratt. He left with Patrick and Abbie while Maria got into her son-in-law’s Chevy.
But their famous father wasn’t in attendance. It comes as actor Schwarzenegger, Patrick has made a name for himself in the latest season of HBO’s The White Lotus, and was at the centre of a particularly eyebrow-raising scene. Here, the Mirror takes a look at Arnold’s five children, including his secret love child.
Schwarzenegger, Katherine
Schwarzenegger, Katherine, 35, is the eldest of the actor’s children with his now ex-wife Maria Shriver, 69. She’s pursued a career as an author over the last decade or so.
She is credited as having written a children’s book and several self-help books, including the New York Times best-seller Rock What You’ve Got, which was released in 2010. Katherine has been married to actor Chris Pratt, 45, since 2019. The couple have two children together, with them parents to daughters Lyla, two, and Eloise, one.
Christina Schwarzenegger
Arnold’s second eldest child is Christina Schwarzenegger, 33. Her career has included her having worked as an editor at Gwyneth Paltrow ‘s lifestyle brand Goop.
She’s also a founding member of the Special Olympics Founder’s Council, with the sports organisation itself founded by her late grandmother Eunice Kennedy Shriver. Christina is credited as an executive producer, alongside her mother Maria, on the Netflix documentary Take Your Pills (2018), which explored the use of certain drugs.
Schwarzenegger, Patrick
Schwarzenegger, Patrick, 31, is the eldest son of former couple Arnold and Maria. He has followed in his father’s footsteps by having pursued a career in acting himself.
The actor has appeared in movies like Midnight Sun (2018) and TV shows like The Staircase, and has been dating model Abby Champion, 28, for a while. Together with his mother, he co-founded the MOSH brand, which aims to “create a conversation about brain health through food, education, research, and provide the tools for a “mindstyle” lifestyle.
He has since played Saxon in White Louts on HBO. Patrick has never resisted showing off his toned body, having recently gone as far as wearing a full-length outfit as well in scenes from The White Lotus, which attracted a lot of online attention. Additionally, he performed incest scenes that shocked viewers.
Schwarzenegger, Christopher
Schwarzenegger, Christopher, 27, is the youngest child from Arnold’s marriage to Maria. And unlike his siblings, he has largely kept himself out of the spotlight.
However, his family has provided insight into his life on social media, including Arnold’s expression of pride after Christopher graduated from the University of Michigan. He said, “I burst with pride because of your compassion, your work, your vision, your critical thinking, and your selflessness,” as he said at the time in 2020.
He currently serves as the Los Angeles-based production company’s director of development for the world-renowned film and television network Indus Valley Media. A source close to Hollywood Life reported that he had started working out and making better food choices after losing weight recently.
He spent a few years away from home, where he lived and where a typical college student would go, but he is now mature and prepared to take better care of himself.
Joseph Baena
While he was married to his then-wife Maria, Arnold had a son named Joseph Baena, 27, with Mildred Baena, the family’s 62-year-old housekeeper.
Joseph – who competed on the latest season of Dancing with the Stars, which was broadcast last year – is understood to be a bodybuilder, fitness model and actor. He has pursued other opportunities too, including having launched a career as a real estate agent in 2021. And according to his Instagram profile, Joseph is also DJ.
In June 2023, a previous version of this story was released.
