    Arnold Schwarzenegger, Maria Shriver Spend Christmas Eve Together

    Arnold Schwarzenegger, Maria Shriver Spend Christmas Eve Together

    Friendly exes!

    Maria Shriver and Arnold Schwarzenegger separated in May, but that doesn't mean they didn't spend the holidays together! 

    PHOTOS: Biggest celeb splits of 2011

    A source tells Us Weekly that Schwarzenegger, 64, and Shriver, 56, attended Saturday's Christmas eve mass together. "They were serious but seemed like one family unit," says a source. "The kids were between them most of the time, but Arnold and Maria definitely seemed civil and would talk once in a while. They hugged the pastor at the end of the service and seemed warm and happy."

    So why did the duo split after 25 years of marriage? Schwarzenegger secretly fathered a son, Joseph, now 13, with Mildred Baena, the family's housekeeper for over 20 years. "I have so much love and respect for Maria," Baena later said.

      How much "love and respect" did the housekeeper have for Maria when she was banging her husband?

        Romping in the hay isn't about love and respect. It was about a good time at the time.

        exactly cleophus, thank you!

        Romping in the hay is about sexual satisfaction for a few minutes at a time. It is a shame that neither thought about anything else when the heat was at its peak.

      It's good to see adults acting civil for the sake of the children. A cheating partner is still the children's parent no matter how bitter you are or how old the children are. Bitterness solves nothing and isn't becoming.

        Amen. Repentance and forgiveness are still high on God's list although not man's!

        Maybe so, but kicking the bum out feels soooooo good.

        You can forgive, but going back with him? After he slept with tha women on theirown bed at the same time he was sleeping with her? Give me a break. The man is a jerk and never respected her. He isn't going to change. Bad example for her daughters. They will do the same thing. She kept saying she was independent and her own woman. Who you are fooling Maria?

      There's nothing strange about them being around each other.

      She has so much love and respect for Maria, just not enough to not have an affair with her husband. And not enough to tell her straight up about it or when she got pregnant and had his child. A strange comment.

        I think that's because Maria didn't beat her bloody..

        Because she was being paid off, you bonehead!!!! DUH!!!
      • Sharon 4 months ago
        doesn't matter "bonehead boat woman" Paid off or not, the point is that she said she has all this respect for Maria, but she had an affair and became pregnant with her husband. It's kind of an oxymoron.

      That's how Baena shows love and respect? She doesn't know the meaning of love and respect. She has no shame.

      It cracks me up how there can be an entire article describing what happened, and people come up with their own idea of what happened. It doesn't say anywhere they are getting back together or trying to salvage their marriage. Some people put their differences aside and do things for the sake of the children.
    • Nelli  •  Honolulu, Hawaii  •  4 months ago
      Housekeeper has so much love and respect for Maria???? Then why did she stab Maria in the back? What a joke! Arnold has always had a reputation for being a player and he doesn't deserve Maria.

      When they kept on questioning him, he straightened up and said to them, "If any one of you is without sin, let him be the first to throw a stone at her." John 8:7

      As if women (especially "older" women) don't realize that their handsome husbands aren't considered "fair game" by younger vultures. It happens. The strength and personal character of Maria Shriver is to be commended and admired. And, I for one, DO....I, myself have been there and done that. I've been through it. My husband wasn't a muscle-man or Mr. Universe or a movie star or a Governor of our nation's most populous state - but he is/was a handsome, gorgeous, well-built, handsome, (and something that Arnold doesn't have - a well-educated man)....and I know the pain and humiliation of being "tossed-aside" for younger, better-looking women (THANKS so much Hugh Hefner...MOST of us will NEVER be able to "fit the bill" to be a Playboy spread)....I'm just a good woman, from a small town, with GOOD traits, good principles, and good beliefs in humankind. I'm not a beauty queen (although I once was considered one - but I have matured and learned what is real, true, and decent about our world.

      THEY DID IT FOR THE KIDS
    • Ilove Soda  •  5 months ago
      Whatever anyone think of him, as divorced, they can be civil enough to spend holiday with their kids. A lot of people cannot even do that while married.

      Did Arnold take communion?
    • Kathie  •  4 months ago
      Good for them !! Even though they are not married any longer, they still have children who need some form of security in their lives. Their willingness to get along helps the children tremendously in seeing what the "real world" is about; to be able to make rational decisions about their own lives. Applause to them!
    • Julian  •  Inglewood, California  •  4 months ago
      That shows that Maria Shriver has the character many women lack, women who brainwash their kids to ostracise the other parent, inject hate, and thereby show the children she is the one who is the good person.

      The housekeeper KNEW who he was....KNEW that there would be money involved..so MONEY is the motivation...Regardless if she was the "housekeeper" for the rest of her life..she knew that if she got pregnant...she had a meal ticket for the rest of her life..REGARDLESS.....Greed...

      Mature and responsible. Not all break ups have to be the end of a friendship.
    • Beverly  •  Mesa, Arizona  •  5 months ago
      Women (wives)...... learn a lesson, that it is not smart to bring any Women in to your private home/family life day after day after day......and than on top of that, leave for days and or weeks by yourself for work/or get Aways.....while the other Women holds down the fort for you,,,,,,,I have heard to not worry about the beautiful Woman who passes by, but be more worried about the OK looking Women who is around alot, and a friendship is formed over years and years......of course he should not have done that, however I make sure that I am their for my husband and children, and I would never have any Woman live or work at my house everyday!

      Here's a $100 worth of free advice for you guys out there: If you're not married to her don't have sex with her. That will keep you out of a lot of trouble when you're dating AND when you're married. It may even keep you from marrying that witch you would have otherwise fallen in 'lust' over if you were having sex with her! Then once you're married have sex with your wife as often as possible; twice a day if you can.
