Hollywood Culture: Why did Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver split?

On May 25, 2010 news broke in Hollywood social circles and leaked on Twitter than the former governor of California Arnold Schwarzenegger had paid for a breast enhancement on his mistress. By May 26, tabloids were busy digging up more and more evidence that the former politician had been keeping his affair secret while making a fool of his wife and other children. Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver split when Maria learned the news he had fathered a child with their housekeeper of 20 years Mildred Baena, the plastic surgery enhanced mother of five children -- which at least one the general public now knows was fathered by the politician. The Governator and had been keeping their love child (now 13 year old boy who is the spitting image of him) a secret. Rumor mills and internet gossip sites say hiding the child from his soon to be ex-wife, the celebrity couple's own four children, and the press may have been his best acting job since he filmed the movie TRUE LIES with Tom Arnold and Janie Lee Curtis (daughter of recently deceased celebrity Tony Curtis). There is no indication Hollywood celebrity Republican Arnold and Maria (his Democrat Kennedy family wife) will be getting back together from the sounds of it in rumor mills and celebrity gossip internet rumor reports. Maria Shriver is devastated. But what really caused the Governator to stray -- and to ruin his credibility as an eco-friendly humanitarian political leader in the state of California who had almost managed to escape from LA? Looking back on the pop culture entertainment news reports, how did the celebrity OOPS scandal develop? It has blown his Hollywood image for sure and all future acting projects and the Governator cartoon project he had slated have been shelved by the actor and his legal reps until the dust settles and the divorce is finished.
