Arnold initially didn't believe Joseph Baena was his son.

After 25 years of marriage and and six weeks after the revelation of an affair that resulted in an out of wedlock child, Maria Shriver filed for divorce from her husband, former action-movie star and California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger.

Maria Shriver hired the top Hollywood divorce lawyer Laura Wasser, but has kept her on the back burner for now. No divorce papers have been filed as of yet, but there is already speculation on how big the payout will be if she divorces Arnold Schwarzenegger after 25 years of marriage and learning of his 13 year old secret love child.

According to a report in the Los Angeles Times, former Governor of California Arnold Schwarzenegger fathered a child over 10 years ago with a longtime member of his household staff.

Former California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger and his wife of 25 years, Maria Shriver, announced Monday that they are separating.
