Arnold’s MiniMe: Schwarzenegger’s Lookalike Son

May 18, 2011 by Lisa Waller Rogers

(See previous post, “Arnold Schwarzenegger: I Have a Love Child.”)

ABC News has reported that Mildred Patricia Baena — who the network says worked as a housekeeper for the family of Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver — is the mother of the former California governor’s fifth child, a son. The boy, Joseph, who is 14, is the spitting image of Schwarzenegger, down to his signature grin.

Former Schwarzenegger housekeeper Mildred Baena, 47, poses with her son in a photo from her MySpace page. The son is purported to be Arnold Schwarzenegger's out-of wedlock child who was born on Oct. 2, 1997, five days after Arnold's wife, Maria Shriver, gave birth to his son, Christopher.

Compare the two faces of Arnold and his son.

This post is cool and all, but just wondering, why is it tagged in sports?

  My first post on Arnold was about him as a bodybuilder, not as a politician, so I had that category already in place!

I am sick and tired already with this whole sordid mess, and what a mess it is. To think that a husband would engage in an adulterous affair in the very home that he shares with his wife and children is beyond my comprehension. This woman worked in the home for 20 years and became pregnant with this man’s child, still working in the home. She went about her daily business as if nothing untoward was going on. What does that say about her as a person; what kind of character does she have? How would she feel if someone did this to her? First of all, she should have never allowed herself to become involved with him. Was he holding a gun to her head? Secondly, if she just had to go to bed with him, she should have removed herself from the marital home. How could she from day to day interact with Maria and her children knowing that she was engaging in sexual acts with her husband and her children’s father? All infidelity is wrong but this defies all imagination. Enough said about this because the more its discussed, the more it angers and that’s putting it mildly.

  Geri, I share your sentiments and anger. What a witch this Baena woman is and Arnold is a stinker.

Omigosh! The child’s resemblance to Arnold is uncanny. How could Maria not have known?

  Read the update. Maria did know, long before Arnold became the Governator.

Thanks for the additional information. The whole story is really quite sad and upsetting for both Maria and the children.

I can’t believe how obvious the resemblance is! Maria must have been in denial. I couldn’t find when she questioned the housekeeper if the son was Arnold’s. Was it this year? How horrible. Great blog as usual, Lisa!

  I think Maria questioned the housekeeper in 2006. Thanks for the kudos and keep coming back.
