Arnold Schwarzenegger’s son wants to follow in his footsteps and become a movie star

The bodybuilder turned ‘Terminator’ actor’s eldest son, Patrick, is already a male model, and hopes it will one day lead him to the big screen.

He told WWD: “I’ve wanted to do some sort of acting stuff down the line. But working as a model is a good way to get comfortable in front of the camera. [Agency] L.A. Models is setting up a lot of cool stuff for me now. Hopefully that will keep jumping.”

The 17-year old is already being noticed in Hollywood thanks to a huge image of him being used on a billboard on Sunset Boulevard advertising Hudson jeans, and Patrick says his mother, Maria Shriver, and father – who are currently divorcing – are very proud. He added: “They loved it. They support anything I do and I support anything they do. That’s how it is.”

Meanwhile, Arnold has announced plans to release his autobiography next year. The former Governor of California has reportedly been working on the memoirs for over a year and they may even include details of his recent break up with Maria, after she discovered he fathered a 13-year-old child with their housekeeper, Mildred Patty Baena. Maria and Arnold also have Katherine, 21, Christina, 19, and 13-year-old Christopher together.

Arnold Schwarzenegger has reportedly begged Maria Shriver to save their marriage

The couple split after 25 years together earlier this month when it emerged Arnold fathered a 13 year old son with the family’s former housekeeper, Mildred ‘Patty’ Baena, but he is desperate for “one more chance” to work things out.

Author Ian Halperin, who wrote an unauthorised biography of Arnold ‘The Governator’, told website Extra: “He’s actually shed tears. He
knows he’s done wrong, and he’s begging on his knees for forgiveness and one last chance. Arnold has been making calls to Maria repeatedly, asking her for one more chance.”

Things haven’t been going Arnold’s way however, with the author adding: “Maria wants no part of it.” Maria – who has four children with Arnold, Katherine, 21, Christina, 19, Patrick, 17, and Christopher, 13 – was pictured earlier this week having lunch with Bono, lead singer of rock band U2, who Ian said is helping her through the split.

He added: “Maria and Bono have been friends for years. Maria just wanted to seek advice, and Bono’s going to help Maria get over the devastation of being cheated on all these years by Arnold.”

Maria Shriver — Divorce On!

Maria Shriver met with her divorce lawyer today in Beverly Hills and all systems are go to end her marriage to Arnold Schwarzenegger … TMZ has learned.

Shriver met with attorney Laura Wasser at the swanky Montage Hotel in Beverly Hills — where Shriver is staying — for a morning meeting.

Meanwhile, we’re told Schwarzenegger has met with another high-powered Bev Hills diviorce lawyer of his own, Bob Kaufman. Although we do not know if Arnold has formally retained Kaufman.

As TMZ first reported, Shriver has been meeting with her financial person for several months now trying to sort out money issues before filing the divorce petition.

It’s a little tricky, because the money guy works for both Maria and Arnold and is very close to both of them.

A Wasser/Kaufman combo is significant, because both have worked on other high profile cases and have figured out how to handle these situations in a discreet, semi-private manner.

Although no divorce petition has been filed — were told it’s just a matter of time.

Arnold’s Mistress THREATENS ‘Entertainment Tonight’

Arnold Schwarzenegger’s mistress, Mildred Patty Baena, is threatening to sue “Entertainment Tonight” over an interview with her ex-husband … claiming the show paid him “in excess of six figures to spew lies.”

Baena’s ex, Rogelio, went on “E.T.” Tuesday night and called the love child situation a “betrayal” — insisting Patty led him to believe the love child was his until one week ago.

After the show, Patty’s lawyers fired off a letter to the executive producer saying “E.T.” ran the interview without ever doing any research into Rogelio’s history with Patty.

In the letter, Patty’s lawyers say they can prove Rogelio ALWAYS knew he wasn’t the dad … because Rogelio was out of the country when the child was conceived and only returned to the U.S. after Patty was already knocked up.

The lawyers state, “Thus, Mr. Baena knew then, just as he knows now, that he could not possibly have been the boys father.”

They also claim Rogelio was living in Columbia until “E.T.” paid to fly him “to the States to lie on television for a six figure paycheck.”

Patty’s lawyers tell “E.T.” … they believe “our client has been outrageously defamed” and demand an apology AND a retraction ASAP … or Patty will take legal action against the show.

Maria Shriver is set to divorce Arnold Schwarzenegger

The 55-year-old writer – who split from her husband of 25 years after he confessed he had fathered a 14-year-old son with their former housekeeper Mildred ‘Patty’ Baena – has reportedly told friends she will file papers to legally end their union after deciding she cannot forgive him.

A close friend of Maria’s told RadarOnline.com: “Maria absolutely will be filing for divorce.

“It’s not a matter of if Maria will file for divorce, but when.”

Although she had hired celebrity divorce lawyer Laura Wasser to represent her in her split from the ‘Terminator’ actor, friends were unsure if she would go ahead with it plans because of strong Catholic beliefs.

However, it has since emerged Maria – who has four children Katherine, 21, Christina, 19, Patrick, 17, and 13-year-old Christopher, with the former Governor of California – suspected Arnold of having affairs with numerous members of their household staff.

Although she “didn’t suspect for one second” that the 63-year-old star had fathered a child with Patty, she reportedly had her suspicions about other workers.

A former employee said: “Maria didn’t suspect for one second that Patty was messing about with her husband. But there were others who she wasn’t quite so sure about.

“It’s perhaps little surprise that after suspicions were aroused, they subsequently didn’t last long in employment.”

We’re told Maria has been unhappy with Arnold for years … and first planned to split with him back in 2009 … but her mother passed away and Maria decided to hold off.

Our source tells us Maria is fed up with Arnold’s infidelities … coupled with the fact he’s been “impossible” to live with. We’re told Maria’s kids acknowledge the issues — and have pushed their mother to call of the marriage.

People who have spoken with Maria tell us … despite her STRONG public persona, Maria has become a “shell of the woman” she appears to be because she is “terrified” of Arnold … but in an emotional, not a physical way.

However, once Maria finally decided to separate from Arnold — and moved into a fancy Beverly Hills hotel — we’re told Arnold pulled a 180 … and he’s been “working extremely hard” to win her back. As one source says, “He could not be sweeter now that she’s left him.”

Reese Witherspoon has bought Steven Segal’s former house for $7 million

The Oscar-winning actress is moving out of the marital home she shared with her ex-husband Ryan Phillippe - who she split from in 2007 and with whom she has two children, daughter Ava, 11, and seven-year-old son Deacon – and is heading to the lavish Los Angeles property which belonged to the action star.

The property is located in a gated community in the Brentwood area of the city and boasts seven bedrooms, nine bathrooms and a swimming pool.

The 6,125 sq ft home is located on acres of plush land and also comes complete with its own Buddhist temple – which ‘Under Siege’ actor Segal, a committed Buddhist, used for meditation.

Reese’s new neighbours include a host of famous names, such as talk show host Chelsea Handler, actor-turned-politician Arnold Schwarzenegger and Gisele Bundchen and her husband Tom Brady.

It looks like Heidi Klum and her husband Seal are set to become new residents as well.

The couple reportedly had an offer accepted for a property located in the same Brentwood Country Estates gated community in Mandeville Canyon worth $13.4 million.

The house boasts eight bedrooms, a kitchen complete with a fireplace dating back to 1603 which was imported from Scotland and a library fireplace which is allegedly from late military leader Napoleon’s farmhouse in France.

Heidi Klum and her husband Seal are buying a Los Angeles property worth $13.4 million

The couple have fallen in love with the 12,300-square-foot Mediterranean-style home in Brentwood and have reportedly had an offer accepted.

Rebecca Ross, a Hilton & Hyland estate agent who had the listing for the property, has refused to disclose the identity of the buyer but did tell The Hollywood Reporter it had sold for “significantly more than the asking price” of $13.4 million.

She added: “There were multiple buyers interested, so there was a bidding war.”

The lavish property – which was previously owned by an investment banker – was first put on the market in October after failing to sell at a June auction.

The house boasts eight bedrooms, a kitchen complete with a fireplace dating back to 1603 which was imported from Scotland and a library fireplace which is allegedly from late military leader Napoleon’s farmhouse in France.

When Heidi and Seal move into the house, which is part of the Brentwood Country Estates gated community in Mandeville Canyon, their neighbours will include California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger and TV journalist Maria Shriver.

The couple raise four children together, Leni, six, Henry, five, Johan, three, and 13-month-old Lou, and have been married for five years.

Arnold Schwarzenegger in Hospital — Seeing Double

Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger stopped by an L.A. hospital yesterday to see a man who may have saved the actor’s life several times — his old Hollywood stunt double.

After the California Governor’s Office told us Ahnold was visiting an old friend, we found out the friend was none other than stunt master Billy Lucas — who used to risk his neck for the Governator in flicks like “Terminator 2,” “Terminator 3” … and “Jingle All the Way.”

We spoke to Lucas, who would only tell us that Arnold made the pit stop because the two hadn’t caught up in a while — and “everything’s fine.”

Arnold also visited Lucas in the hospital a year ago, after the stuntman underwent back surgery.

The singer is set to release ‘Rated R’ later this month and admits she has felt massively nervous about performing songs written in the aftermath of her assault at the hands of former boyfriend Chris Brown.

She said: “There are a lot of butterflies, a lot of excitement.

“I’m anxious. Like, I can’t wait. But you’re always nervous, because you’re about to go do something big. It’s a new thing, a new era. But I’m not scared. I’m just really excited. I just can’t wait to start.

“My first time performing the songs was on Sunday night in Los Angeles with Jay-Z. We did ‘Run This Town’ and ‘Hard,’ and I kept thinking, ‘Why the hell am I so nervous?’ And I couldn’t figure it out. But then I knew why: It was the first time performing one of my new songs.”

Marking her new era, Rihanna looked radiant when she stepped out in New York on Monday night (09.11.09) to accept a Woman of the Year award.

The ‘Umbrella’ hitmaker was one of several high-profile females – including author Maya Angelou, Arnold Schwarzenegger’s wife Maria Shriver, designer Stella McCartney, tennis star Serena Williams and comedienne Amy Poehler – honoured by Glamour magazine.

US First Lady Michelle Obama was given an award of special recognition for bringing the importance of mentoring to the forefront.

The honorees are chosen by a board of former winners, including Jennifer Lopez, and awards were presented at a special ceremony at Carnegie Hall.
