Schwarzenegger, Shriver are finally divorced

Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver have officially finalised their divorce, more than 10 years after proceedings began.

Court documents filed on Tuesday showed that a final settlement had been reached between the ‘Terminator’ star and the US journalist, formally ending their 35-year marriage.

The terms of the divorce settlement were not made public.

Shriver, the niece of slain US President John F Kennedy, filed for divorce in 2011 after Schwarzenegger ended his term as California Governor and admitted fathering a child with the couple’s housekeeper some 14 years previously.

Schwarzenegger and Shriver married in 1986 and had four children together.
