Arnold Schwarzenegger Wears ‘I Survived Maria’ T-Shirt (Photo)

Well isn’t this classy, TMZ caught Arnold Schwarzenegger out bike riding over the weekend in Santa Monica and he was wearing a t-shirt that said “I survived Maria.”

Obviously by now we all know about Arnold’s divorce from Maria Shriver after he had a secret love child, but him wearing this t-shirt might not be as dramatic as people think.

Apparently Maria’s office made these t-shirts as a joke during a farewell party for the Governator back in 2007 but as you can see the t-shirt now has 2007 scribbled out and 1977 has been written above it.

1977 is the year that Arnold married Maria so maybe that is a bit distasteful, but sources tell TMZ that over the past few weeks the couple have been speaking quite frequently, especially after their youngest son was hospitalized, and are not at war with each other.

I don’t know though, while I don’t think it is the most tasteful of things to wear during this time I do think that people could be blowing this out of proportion. What are your thoughts on it?

Arnold Schwarzenegger Will Now Give Maria Shriver Spousal Support

Last week Arnold Schwarzenegger filed his response to Maria Shriver‘s divorce petition and in it he was asking the judge not to give her any spousal support but now he seems to have had a change of heart.

Arnold refiled his papers yesterday and this time he is not denying her any spousal support or attorney’s fees, sources close to Arnold tell TMZ that he didn’t even know that his lawyer had asked to block Maria getting any money because he never read the papers.

Arnold, who is rumored to have earnings of $500-$750 million, filed his original papers on July 20th – the same week that the couples 13-year-old son, Christopher, was in intensive care unit after he was involved in a surfing accident.

Speaking of Christopher, People report that things are looking up for him and he is expected to be released sometime this week. Maria still hasn’t left her son’s bedside says a source.

“She was shaken horribly, this is her baby. She has been at the hospital nonstop, 24-7. She is sleeping there. How much can she take right now?” says the source.

Hopefully things will start to go smoothly for her from now on, she sure has had a rough couple of months.

Arnold & Maria’s Son Hospitalized From Surfing Accident

Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver‘s youngest son, Christopher, has been hospitalized after being involved in a serious surfing accident last weekend according to TMZ.

Christopher, 13-years-old, has been in an Intensive Care Unit for days after he suffered multiple broken bones and a collapsed lung from the accident while surfing in Malibu.

It’s looking like he will be fine though because apparently his status was upgraded so things are looking up for him, despite the family being torn apart with the divorce Maria has been at his side since the accident and Arnold has been a regular visitor.

This isn’t going to bring the couple back together though because last week they were reunited at a family dinner and then just yesterday Arnold filed his response to Maria’s divorce petition and they are arguing as to whether she should get spousal support or not. So he filed this petition while their child was in hospital? Nice.

In his filing Arnold asked the judge to terminate any spousal support for Maria since she asked for it in her petition. Arnold is also asking for joint custody of their two minor children.

Who’s side are you on?

Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver Reunite

If you were hoping for an Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver reconciliation — it’s not happening.

According to X17, Arnold and Maria both showed up for Italian food in Brentwood last night, attending a dinner for a family friend.

They both arrived separately, and left separately — but on the way out, both Arnold and Maria put on a smile when asked about their relationship.

One photog told Arnold [see video], “We’re all hoping you guys get back together” … to which Arnold simply replied, “Thank you.”

Do you think she’ll take him back?

Maria Shriver Leaked Arnold Schwarzenegger’s Love Child Story

Time to catch up on the latest happenings in the ongoing divorce saga between Maria Shriver and Arnold Schwarzenegger, today TMZ are reporting that Maria is the person who leaked the news that he had a secret love child.

According to sources when Maria found out that Arnold had fathered Mildred Patty Baena‘s son she was furious and hysterical so she wanted to hold a news conference herself announcing the news. But her friends managed to talk her out of this and they all eventually came up with the idea to leak details of the scandal to the media.

TMZ also says that Maria apparently found out about the love child only in late April or at the start of this month and Arnold is meant to be upset that she would talk to her friends about the scandal, he also knows she is the one behind the leak.

Meanwhile yesterday Jane Seymour told CNN that she wouldn’t be surprised if there was more secret love children out there, here is what she had to say:

“I was not even remotely surprised. The moment I heard it, that there was an announcement of their separation — he was obviously jumping the gun before everyone else told the world of the news. From what I gather, I think there will be lots of information coming people’s way. I heard about two more [out of wedlock kids] somebody else knows about. I even met someone who knows him well.”

Now after that Maria is said to have hired a private investigator to look into the double life that he lead before she gets ready to battle him in the divorce court, which could cost him hundreds of millions. RadarOnline reports that she hired the private investigator to look for more love children that might be out there as well as looking into if he has any money stashed away that she might not know about.

It looks like this divorce might end up being a pretty entertaining to watch unfold in front of our eyes, not that divorce is entertaining but when someone is a love rat I do like to see them get their comings.

Arnold Schwarzenegger Had A Secret Child

Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver shocked the world last week when they released a joint statement announcing that they had separated, the cause of this was unknown. That was until now when it’s announced that he had a baby with a member of staff who had served the couple for the past twenty years.

The mother of the child retired from working with the family and was then given a nice severance package of course Maria knew none of this and thought the father of the child, who was born more than ten years ago, was the woman’s husband. Arnold spoke to the LA Times last night and said:

“After leaving the governor’s office I told my wife about this event, which occurred over a decade ago. I understand and deserve the feelings of anger and disappointment among my friends and family. There are no excuses and I take full responsibility for the hurt I have caused. I apologized to Maria, my children and my family. I am truly sorry. I ask that the media respect my wife and children through this extremely difficult time. While I deserve your attention and criticism, my family does not.”

There isn’t much details on the whole situation yet, but as we all know once stuff like this comes out it isn’t long for more stuff to be released. What is known though is that Maria was devastated by this and has been speaking to a powerful financial adviser to help her in the divorce.

Can’t say I’m too shocked by this, what do you think?

Arnold Schwarzenegger Wants Maria Shriver Back

Just yesterday news broke that Arnold Schwarzenegger And Maria Shriver had separated after she got tired of being basically being neglected by him and it’s reported that he already wants her back and is willing to change.

But first, Arnold was doing a speech during the 63rd Israel Independence Day Celebration in Los Angeles last night when he decided to take a moment to speak about the news of their separation. Here is what he said:

“I just spoke to Maria an hour ago before I came here. We both were saying the same thing – we’re extremely blessed to be surrounded by so many wonderful people, by so many wonderful friends. We both love each other very much. We’re very fortunate to have four extraordinary children. And we’re taking it one day at a time. The bottom line is we want to thank all the people for their great, great support.”

TMZ are reporting that Arnold has realized that he is the reason behind the whole separation and he is now willing to change his behavior, a source close to the couple said “Arnold has done a 180. He’s been really sweet to her since all this went down.”

But this is how it always goes, the person whose fault the whole break up is says they realize how they need to change and then when they do get back together the person goes right back to being what they were the whole time.

I guess time will tell if Maria is willing to take him back but apparently they were recently spotted at a hotel in Los Angeles for a special occasion.

Arnold Schwarzenegger And Maria Shriver Have Separated

Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver have announced they have separated after 25-years of marriage and being one of Hollywood’s most powerful couples. The couple released a joint statement that read:

“This has been a time of great personal and professional transition for each of us, After a great deal of thought, reflection, discussion, and prayer, we came to this decision together. At this time, we are living apart, while we work on the future of our relationship, We are continuing to parent our four children together. They are the light and the center of both of our lives.

 We consider this a private matter and neither we nor any of our friends or family will have further comment. We ask for compassion and respect from the media and the public.”

Reasons for the separation were unknown at first but TMZ have managed to contact sources close to the couple who say that Maria has been sick of the marriage for sometime now because of Arnold basically being crazy.

The source says that Maria moved out of their home ins Los Angeles a couple of months ago after being unhappy for a few years from his craziness and him neglecting her. The source finished up saying “she’s a lost soul”.

Is it just me that finds this marriage ending kind of sad? I actually thought they would last, but I guess in Hollywood nothing lasts.

Celebrity Couples That Might Last

Given the fact that 3 celebrity couples have broken up in the past week that we all thought would have made it last it has made NY Mag come up with a list of couples that we are all expecting to make it. Here are the couples:

Bon Jovi and Dorothea Hurley

Okay, so she’s not famous in her own right, but being Bon Jovi’s High-School Sweetheart Who He Married is enough to make this pair an A-List duo. New Jersey would be devastated if they broke up. Though, if he wrote “Shot Through the Heart” after dating Diane Lane only a short while, imagine the opus he could come up with if these two split! Actually, we’d rather not.

Paul Bettany and Jennifer Connelly

Intel Chris saw them on the street the other day outside the magazine offices! They looked like they are in love. Also, he’s practically albino and she was in Labyrinth, so what could possibly go wrong?

Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi

Who doesn’t want this couple to make it? Oh, yeah. Every single gay-marriage foe in the country who is threatened by the fact that a normal lesbian couple is in living rooms in middle America each afternoon. But other than that?

Maggie Gyllenhaal and Peter Sarsgaard

If they split up, it would be a real blow for Brooklyn.

Jon Hamm and Jennifer Westfeldt

You may think this pair is not going to make it, as Jennifer is suffering from the disadvantage of Having Dated Somebody Incredibly Attractive Since Before He Was Famous. But last year Intel Jessica spotted them at an SNL taping full-on making out, and they’d already been dating for years. Normal couples aren’t even like that. Also, it’s Jon Hamm. Nobody is letting go of that for as long as they still have hands.

Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson

As Vulture Kyle observed, “That would be sadder than your own mom and dad divorcing.”

Julianne Moore and Bart Freundlich

Everything about Julianne Moore gives us warm feelings, even her terrible Boston accent on 30 Rock. Which is why we’re rooting for her and her director husband, despite the fact that we’ve never watched a movie he’s written or directed. If Julianne likes him, he has to be worth keeping.

Ryan Reynolds and Scarlett Johansson

Normally we wouldn’t put ScarJo — who dated Josh Hartnett, for God’s sake — on a list like this. But then she surprised us by managing to conduct a relationship with another celebrity for a long time, all in secret, such that we didn’t know she was even dating the Van Wilder star until they were practically married. You still never see them together, really, which makes us think there’s something to this relationship. Like, they might even have conversations.

Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver

You may not like his or her politics, but you’ve got to admit, at this point they’re like America’s almost-gorgeous-but-actually-kind-of-weird-looking aunt and uncle. Apparently, back when aspiring New York governor Andrew Cuomo was married to a Kennedy, none of the rest of the clan liked him in Hyannis because he wouldn’t play football and horse around. You KNOW Arnold horses around. Better than anybody.

Naomi Watts and Liev Schreiber

Did you read the story in which our reporter took a cab home from the airport with Liev and before he even got in the door he took their kids to the park to play? We rest our case.

I agree with this list, but after all this is Hollywood and they all tend to bite the dust sooner or later.

Eunice Kennedy Shriver Dies, Age 88

Eunice Kennedy Shriver, the sister of President John F. Kennedy and a champion of the disabled who founded the Special Olympics, died Tuesday, the Special Olympics said. She was 88.

Born on July 10, 1921, in Brookline, Massachusetts, Shriver was the fifth of nine children to Joseph P. and Rose Fitzgerald Kennedy. She emerged from the long shadow of siblings John F. Kennedy, Robert F. Kennedy and Sen. Edward M. Kennedy as the founder of the Special Olympics, which started as a summer day camp in her backyard in 1962.

Today, 3.1 million people with mental disabilities participate in 228 programs in 170 nations, according to the Special Olympics.

No final decision has been made on funeral arrangements, a source close to the family said.

The family has already released a statement:

It’s hard for us to believe: the amazing Eunice Kennedy Shriver went home to God this morning at 2 a.m.

She was the light of our lives, a mother, wife, grandmother, sister and aunt who taught us by example and with passion what it means to live a faith-driven life of love and service to others. For each of us, she often seemed to stop time itself – to run another Special Olympics games, to visit us in our homes, to attend to her own mother, her sisters and brothers, and to sail, tell stories, and laugh and serve her friends. How did she do it all?

Inspired by her love of God, her devotion to her family, and her relentless belief in the dignity and worth of every human life, she worked without ceasing – searching, pushing, demanding, hoping for change. She was a living prayer, a living advocate, a living center of power. She set out to change the world and to change us, and she did that and more. She founded the movement that became Special Olympics, the largest movement for acceptance and inclusion for people with intellectual disabilities in the history of the world. Her work transformed the lives of hundreds of millions of people across the globe, and they in turn are her living legacy.

We have always been honored to share our mother with people of good will the world over who believe, as she did, that there is no limit to the human spirit. At this time of loss, we feel overwhelmed by the gifts of prayer and support poured out to us from so many who loved her. We are together in our belief that she is now in heaven, rejoicing with her family, enjoying the fruits of her faith, and still urging us onward to the challenges ahead. Her love will inspire us to faith and service always.

She was forever devoted to the Blessed Mother. May she be welcomed now by Mary to the joy and love of life everlasting, in the certain truth that her love and spirit will live forever.

-The family of Eunice Kennedy Shriver

An amazing woman, rest in peace Eunice!
