The illicit relationship and secret son was revealed in a bombshell article by the Los Angeles Times just four months after the end of Arnold’s term as Governor of California.
As a result of the scandal, Arnold’s wife Maria Shriver, 64, moved out of the family home in the Brentwood area Los Angeles, and the couple confirmed their 25-year marriage was over.
Arnold and Maria reunited Monday night to celebrate the 23rd birthday of their son Christopher Schwarzenegger.

He wrote: ‘Happy birthday Christopher! You are such a fantastic son – kind, smart, giving, and everything I could ask for. I can’t wait to see what you do with this year, but I know I’ll be proud watching! I love you!’
Christopher celebrated his graduation from the University of Michigan back in May.
