Arnold Schwarzenegger has reportedly made an important decision regarding his son, Joseph Baena.
With the iconic actor’s net worth approaching half a billion dollars, many are curious about the reason behind this decision. Mildred Baena, a former housekeeper for the star family, gave birth to Joseph while the former Governor of California was still married to Maria Shriver. However, it wasn’t until 2011 that the boy discovered the truth about his father.
Arnold Schwarzenegger Accused of Financially Ending Joseph Baena’s Son
Despite being the son of the 75-year-old famous man, the budding actress’ life was not always filled with luxury and privilege. After he graduated from college — which Schwarzenegger paid for — he reportedly decided to cut it off financially.

Nevertheless, the young man reportedly holds no grudge against the “Tadika Cop” actor for making that decision. After the news about the “Terminator” star as his father became public, their family received strict attention, which is expected given the circumstances.
In response, the 25-year-old and his mother moved to north Los Angeles to recover from the chaos and maintain a sense of privacy and normalcy. Despite the shocking revelation and the media attention it attracted, Schwarzenegger didn’t shy away from his newfound son.
Instead, he reached out to Joseph, and the two quickly developed a strong and close bond. In her mid-twenties, she attended Pepperdine University in Malibu, California, and the proud father stood by the fitness model to support her on her graduation day.
Joseph initially aspired to make his mark in the entertainment industry, following in the footsteps of the “Total Recall” star. However, landing an acting role proved to be a challenge. Undeterred, he made a career switch and earned his real estate license, and just like Schwarzenegger, the “DWTS” contestant also embraced bodybuilding as one of his passions.
At first, Joseph struggled with athletics and was not naturally gifted in sports. He faced rejection when he didn’t make the cut for the basketball and football teams. However, the turning point came when a friend encouraged him to join the swim team in high school. Embracing swimming, he got in better physical shape and developed a passion for health and fitness.
Although Schwarzenegger has a positive relationship with all of his children, those from his marriage to Shriver do not embrace Joseph as their brother.

In May, the star graced the premiere of her new series, “FUBAR,” accompanied by her five children. However, the tension between Schwarzenegger’s daughters from his marriage to his first wife and their half-brother was evident on the red carpet.
As the author posed on the red carpet, her girls, Katherine and Christina, stood by her side. Surprisingly, Joseph walked the carpet separately, despite also being there to support the politician.
After the premiere, a source close to the “Hercules in New York” star revealed the family dynamic. The insider revealed that her children with the 67-year-old “don’t love” the real estate agent despite her strong bond with their father.
Interestingly, the filmmaker’s sons from his previous marriage, Patrick and Christopher, were also absent from the film’s premiere. The source complained:
“But, to be honest, the other kids didn’t love Joe. It was a shame because he was a perfect child, and Arnold had always treated him fairly like all his other children. But for whatever reason, other kids took over [the affair] out on Joe.”
Despite the tension in the family, Joseph showed his cheerful spirit in an Instagram post after the event. She shared a photo of herself, smiling happily with a thumbs up, and expressed her excitement in the caption, “I give FUBAR two thumbs up!!! Had an amazing experience last night at the FUBAR premiere!”
The post sparked a flurry of comments from fans, many of whom blasted her half-siblings for their negative attitude. One praised him as “Arnold’s true legacy” and criticized another as a jealous “rich lazy kid”. Another expressed disgust at the way he was treated and questioned whether racial animosity played a role, encouraging him to use the situation as motivation for his success.
