Coming out the other side. Arnold Schwarzenegger is taking responsibility for the end of his marriage to Maria Shriver — and revealed where they stand now.The 75-year-old actor explained on Tuesday, May 16, that while his upcoming Netflix series FUBAR “feels like it’s a documentary” due to his character’s divorce and affair story line, his and Shriver’s split was more complex.“The difference is, in the show, [my character Luke Brunner] doesn’t consider it cheating because [seducing CIA assets] was part of his profession,” Schwarzenegger told The Hollywood Reporter in an interview published on Tuesday.Regarding his real-life relationship with Shriver, 67, the former governor of California confessed: “It was my f—kup.

It was my failure.”The Terminator star married Shriver in April 1986 after first meeting in 1977. The pair announced their separation in May 2011 amid reports of infidelity on Schwarzenegger’s part.

The Kindergarten Cop actor later confirmed that he fathered son Joseph Baena with his family’s former housekeeper, Mildred “Patty” Baena, amid his marriage.Schwarzenegger said in his THR feature that while the divorce “was very, very difficult in the beginning,” he doesn’t miss being married. (Us Weekly confirmed in December 2021 that the exes finalized their divorce after 10 years apart.)“Eventually, you move on,” he told the magazine. “I have a wonderful girlfriend, Heather Milligan, who is very successful.

I’m really proud of her, and I love her.”The Twins actor noted: “At the same time, I love my wife. She and I are really good friends and very close.” (He continued to refer to Shriver as his “wife” throughout the interview.)In order to view the video, please allow Manage CookiesSchwarzenegger — who shares
