Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver announced their split in early May after having been together for 25 years.
The marriage between Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver was terminated because he fathered a child with a member of his household staff, it was revealed Tuesday.
The former Governor of California and his wife announced their separation earlier this month. The couple had been together for 25 years, but remained mum on what cause the split.
The surprising split was sparked when Schwarzenegger admitted to Shriver the child, born 10 years ago, was his.
"After leaving the governor's office I told my wife about this event, which occurred over a decade ago," Schwarzenegger said in a statement.
"I understand and deserve the feelings of anger and disappointment among my friends and family," he said. "There are no excuses and I take full responsibility for the hurt I have caused. I have apologized to Maria, my children and my family. I am truly sorry."
The 63-year-old former bodybuilder asked that the media "respect my wife and children through this extremely difficult time. While I deserve your attention and criticism, my family does not."
In a separate statement, the female employee told the Los Angeles Times she had said that her husband at the time was the child's father. The birth occurred years before Schwarzenegger became governor of California in 2004.
Another source told the Times that Schwarzenegger has provided financial support for the child from the beginning.

Godless Rinos usually lead to disaster for their jurisdiction and their personal lives.
Arnold did a lot of Collateral Damage
coz he wasn`t Pumping Iron but pumping Red Sonja,
and telling Maria True Lies.
Conan the Barabarian Jingled the maid All The Way with Red Heat,
could have given her Twins or an Arnold Junior,
now he is The Running Man, back to Hercules in New York.
Right you are. Few things seem to matter these days and I’m hard pressed to name even one.
I have the same reaction as I did with Elizabeth Edwards, she knew he was a slimeball when she agreed to marry him.
Ah rah, take the Kennedy ahh-dviiice, you got to, ah rah, knock them off if you knock them up...
...What I find odd is his wife apparently didnt mind the womanizing, it was only when he had a child that she left him.
I thought “being a Kennedy” was genetic; I now think it is probably contagious.
He only JUST told her.
True.
LLS
What a pig.
Kennedy legacy...ho hummm!
Arnold is acting like a Democrat. Another great hope tarnished and self destructed. Now I am saddened I voted for this creep.
He is now the Spermanator.
Rino family values on display.
So: You believe that Arnold had an affair with the maid ten years ago, the maid had a child, which I believe we can assume Arnold has been paying child support to, and poor naive Maria never suspected a thing.
It’s nice to be that trusting I suppose.
Well, yes. I’ve read numerous reports and they all say the same thing. Until reported differently, I believe this is exactly what caused the “sudden” breakup.
I forgive Arnold Schwarzenegger until that they start singling out liberal Democrats such as John Edwards and Jesse Jackson
