TMZ has learned Maria Shriver has pulled the trigger on her marriage ... she just filed for divorce from Arnold Schwarzenegger ... and we've learned, there is NO PRENUP.
In the divorce petition, obtained by TMZ, Shriver cites "irreconcilable differences" as her reason for ending the 25-year marriage.
Shriver is asking for spousal support and wants the judge to deny Arnold the right to ask for support for himself-- though it's highly unlikely he would.
Shriver is asking for joint custody of their minor children, who she names in the document as 17-year-old "Patrick Arnold Shriver Schwarzenegger" and 13-year-old "Christopher Sargent Shriver Schwarzenegger."
And, in the petition, filed by disso-queen Laura Wasser, Shriver is asking Arnold to pay the attorneys' fees of both parties.
As for the date Arnold and Maria separated ... it isn't specified in the divorce papers.
According to the docs, the property accumulated during the marriage will be divided at a later date. And, sources tell TMZ, there is no prenup, so all of Arnold and Maria's earnings over the past quarter century will be divided 50/50.

Never could stand him....even less now....Hope she takes him for everything he has...
Well, there goes half his money.
RE: I thought Kennedy’s didn’t care about infidelity.
She got it from her father’s side :)
I enjoyed the Terminator films when they came out. But I don’t think I could stand watching them now, now that I know Arnold better.
I think that Sargeant Shriver was a decent guy, but I can’t say that I like Maria any more than Arnold.
They were kind of made for each other.
Prenup in the case of Adultery ? Forget that,Maria has a nice Dick Tracy Jaw she is working on.
If it’s going to his children, isn’t it a net positive? She’s trying to get as much of it as she can to limit the maid’s son’s claim to it.
Maria was born a Shriver not a Kennedy. It's the women who marry Kennedy men who put up with it.
Good point. The maid’s son is his son, too, so that son has just as much standing as any other son.
That would only apply in probate, though. We are talking property settlement to Maria.
Child support is usually taken out of future income. All kids under 18 have an equal claim to that.
The upside this is California, a community property state, i.e. she can get a 50-50 split at the very least.
So the puke shakes off skeletor and goes back to what?
He’s a little old to be making action movies.
Craig Ferguson had a funny line, in refards to this story.
“Hasta la vista, half my stuff.”
Arnie’s got his bona fides now.
Switch to D and he can get elected to anything except POTUS.
So you are rooting for the Kennedy?
At the very least.
So, with Shriver getting at least half of Arnold Schwarzenegger's net worth of $400 Million USD, why does the law still allow this?
"Shriver is asking for spousal support ...."
In my next life, I am coming back as the unemployed spouse of a filthy rich earner.
It appears to be the End of Days for Ahhnold’s marriage...
