The New York Post reported today:
The mother of former California governor Arnold Schwarzenegger’s love child was named Tuesday as 50-year-old housekeeper Mildred Baene.
After a joint investigation byRadarOnline and Star magazine, the entertainment news website also quoted an unnamed source as saying the child was a son.
Schwarzenegger, who last week announced his separation from Maria Shriver after 25 years of marriage, admitted Monday to fathering the child with a longtime employee around 10 years ago.

However, he did not name her, prompting a frenzied media effort to track down the woman.
Late Tuesday, Radar and Star named Baene, and reported she worked for Schwarzenegger and Shriver for 20 years before retiring in January.
“She’s the one,” a source said.
A second source confirmed: “They have a son together.”
In a statement to the Los Angeles Times on Monday night, Schwarzenegger 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 have apologized to Maria, my children and my family. I am truly sorry,” he added.
Schwarzenegger, 63, took financial responsibility for the child “from the start and continued to provide support,” the newspaper reported an unidentified source as saying.
On Tuesday, Shriver asked for compassion and privacy after the “heartbreaking” revelation.
“This is a painful and heartbreaking time,” she said in a statement to People. “As a mother, my concern is for the children. I ask for compassion, respect and privacy as my children and I try to rebuild our lives and heal.”
Shriver and the former California governor have four children together — Katherine, 21, Christina, 19, Patrick, 17, and 13-year-old Christopher.
Governor Schwarzenegger goes to cast his vote on election day with his wife Maria Shriver and their daughters Christina and Katherine (her first time voting), at the Kenter Canyon elementary school in Brentwood.
I have written many times about Arnold Schwarzenegger before. Here are just a few of the times:
1. President Reagan having a photo taken with Arnold Schwarzenegger at the Republican National Convention in Dallas, Texas. 8/23/84.
2.Here is a video clip of Arnold Schwarzenegger using an Airlight
Broom as a prop for “cleaning house” in the California Recall
Election as seen on CNN, ABC, CBS, NBC, ect in 2003. The
Airlight Broom is manufactured by Little Rock Broom Works.
3. I heard John Fund of the Wall Street Journal speak in Little Rock on April 27, 2011 and in his speech he mentioned the struggle that Arnold Schwarzenegger had with the envirnomentalists in California. I took time to repeat a lot of the facts about that in my blog post that day.
4. At that same luncheon on April 27th that I mentioned earlier, one subject that John Fund brought up was the red tape that Arnold Schwarzenegger had to deal with in California. I wrote about that too.
5. St. James Palace has confirmed that Kate Middleton and Prince William – or, more officially, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge – will be visiting California from July 8-10 this summer. Former Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger is expected to greet the Royals as they touch down.
8. Pictures of Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver through the years. Video clip of them at Ronald Reagan’s funeral.
9. I wrote a post on American Exceptionalism and put in a video clip of Arnold Schwarzenegger doing the introduction to an episode of “Free to Choose.”

In this series “Will Maria Shriver’s marriage survive Arnold Schwarzenegger’s admission of infidelity? I hope so,” there has been a great reaction to it by the public. I have included articles from “Family Life” of Little Rock, Arkansas about how to recover from an infidelity. I have also included info on how to take part in a “Weekend to Remember,” where you can hear “Family Life” speakers with your spouse. The only hope for Maria’s marriage will come from the power of Christ in her life to forgive. “A Family Life Conference” would be a great first step. Below is some info on that:
In just one November weekend, for example, more than 6,200 people attended 10 Weekend to Remember® marriage getaways around the country. Here are a couple quotes from those who went:
We are moving from a place of being ready to divorce to looking forward to growing together through Christ. This has given us important tools to do so.
We’ve been walking separate roads for many years. Infidelity was the final straw leading us to divorce. I was filling out the papers two days before we came to this event. Over the course of the weekend we found each other, wrote love letters that will be kept as reminders of our true love for each other. I granted forgiveness that my husband really needed. We are going to burn the divorce papers when we get home!
In today’s culture, the issues of marriage and family are open doors for the gospel–the Good News of Christ. Because people want their marriages and families to succeed.

That’s REALLY got to hurt Maria!
