Nothing lasts forever
It comes as no surprise to anyone -- including Arnold Schwarzenegger himself -- that his wife Maria Shriver, the former first lady of California, wants out of the marriage. Today, she reportedly filed for divorce from Schwarzenegger after 25 years of marital bliss, citing "irreconcilable differences."

What Shriver couldn't reconcile was the fact that her soon-to-be-ex-husband fathered a child with their former housekeeper, Mildred "Patty" Baena, more than a decade ago -- and kept it a secret.

Shriver is asking Schwarzenegger to pay her attorney's fees, according to TMZ. And finally, the answer to the question we are all wondering: No, there's no prenup.

That means all of the couple's earnings over the past quarter century will be divided in half, according to TMZ.

"Arnold and Maria are on speaking terms, and Arnold knew beforehand that she was filing divorce papers. Maria is telling friends she hopes this will be an easy and amicable divorce," the news outlet reports.

Neener neener neener!  Mrs Thing dumps on the sisters who told the truth about "her man" insisting "she knew him better" than those jealous skanks who accused him of sexual improprieties over the years . ..  talk about getting hoist on your own petard, you had it coming.  Typical.  Blame other women for what men do . .. .  sure works out well, eh?
