Former California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger lavished money and gifts on his 2nd family, according to his mistress’ former sister-in-law.
Mildred “Patty” Baena’s sister-in-law Nora Vela told the NY Post that Schwarzenegger spoiled Tanner, the now 13-year-old son he had with his former housekeeper.
Baena worked as Schwarzenegger’s maid for 20 years. After Tanner was born in 1997, the ‘Governator’ lavished money and gifts on Tanner and his older brothers, Roger, 24 and John, 32.
According to Vela, Schwarzenegger made Roger his Godson when the boy was just a toddler. “He opened Roger’s first savings account with $2,000 for the occasion,” she said.
“It was a big deal.”
“When Roger turned 18, Arnold got him a job as a makeup artist, working with one of the big studios,” said Vela, the ex-wife of Baena’s oldest son, John.
According to Vela, Schwarzenegger jetted the family around the world on exotic vacations along with his estranged wife Maria Shriver and their four biological children.
The neighbors wondered aloud why Arnold was so close to the family next door. Vela said she always suspected Tanner was Schwarzenegger’s son but Baena denied it.
“We thought it was strange that he was so lavish with them,” Baena’s former daughter-in-law, Nora Vela, told The Post. “Roger and [Patty’s son with Arnold] would get all of these gifts and then they would go on vacations with Arnold, Maria and their kids,” Vela said.
“It just seemed strange that they were so close.” “[Patty] kept saying the boy was not Arnold’s,” Vela recalled. “We were constantly asking, but she would always say, ‘No! No!’ ” Source
In documents obtained by gossip website TMZ, Schwarzenegger made a significant down payment of $65,000 toward the home that Baena shares with two of her sons in Bakersfield, CA, about 120 miles north of LA.
Two “gift” down payment installments of $5,000 and $60,000 were made from Schwarzenegger’s personal checking account about 6 months before Baena “retired” from her housekeeping job.
According to TMZ, Baena and Schwarzenegger had sex in Maria and Arnold’s marital bed daily. Schwarzenegger reportedly had a high sex drive, and he had rumored trysts with multiple women.
Like most well-kept jump offs, Baena felt pangs of jealousy toward her lover’s wife. She was so jealous of Shriver that she wanted to be her. She often paraded around the house in Shriver’s clothes and jewelry. Baena also had cosmetic surgery work done to enhance her appearance.
The charade unraveled in January when Shriver confronted Baena and asked her if Tanner was Arnold’s son.
The housekeeper broke down and admitted the truth, according to RadarOnline.com.
