Arnold Schwarzenegger has five children, including four with his ex-wife Maria Shriver, with some of his kids having followed in his footsteps, whilst others have opted to go down different paths
Arnold Schwarzenegger 's son has wowed fans with his impressive weight loss after he was spotted in a rare public appearance while out with his family - but he's not the only son to make recent headlines.
Christopher Schwarzenegger is the 75-year-old legendary actor's youngest child, whom he shares with ex Maria Shriver. Heading to a family gathering on Easter Sunday, Christopher, 27, was pictured with his older brother and White Lotus star Patrick Schwarzenegger, 31.
‌
Christopher was dressed in a dark teal Henley with khakis and white trainers. He also donned round brown glasses, while his chiselled jaw was defined with stubble. He also sported a new hairstyle, with a swept-back quiff.
The son of Arnold embarked on a fitness journey back in 2020 and his weight loss transformation was first revealed at Patrick's birthday party in Malibu a few years ago, before he was then seen again in 2023 looking trim leaving the gym.
Chris was then spotted on April 19, as he was seen leaving Restoration Hardware restaurant in West Hollywood where he met up with his family, including Maria, Patrick with his model fiancé Abbie Champion and their two sisters - Christina, 33, and Katherine, 35, and her actor husband Chris Pratt. He left with Patrick and Abbie while Maria got into her son-in-law's Chevy.
‌
But their famous father wasn't in attendance. It comes as actor Patrick Schwarzenegger has made a name for himself in the latest season of HBO's The White Lotus, and was at the centre of a particularly eyebrow-raising scene. Here, the Mirror takes a look at Arnold's five children, including his secret love child.
Katherine Schwarzenegger
‌
Katherine Schwarzenegger, 35, is the eldest of the actor's children with his now ex-wife Maria Shriver, 69. She's pursued a career as an author over the last decade or so.
She is credited as having written a children's book and several self-help books, including the New York Times best-seller Rock What You've Got, which was released in 2010. Katherine has been married to actor Chris Pratt, 45, since 2019. The couple have two children together, with them parents to daughters Lyla, two, and Eloise, one.
Christina Schwarzenegger
‌
Arnold's second eldest child is Christina Schwarzenegger, 33. Her career has included her having worked as an editor at Gwyneth Paltrow 's lifestyle brand Goop.
She's also a founding member of the Special Olympics Founder's Council, with the sports organisation itself founded by her late grandmother Eunice Kennedy Shriver. Christina is credited as an executive producer, alongside her mother Maria, on the Netflix documentary Take Your Pills (2018), which explored the use of certain drugs.
Patrick Schwarzenegger
‌
Patrick Schwarzenegger, 31, is the eldest son of former couple Arnold and Maria. He has followed in his father's footsteps by having pursued a career in acting himself.
The actor - who's been in a relationship with model Abby Champion, 28, for several years - has appeared in films like Midnight Sun (2018) and TV shows such as The Staircase. He co-founded brand MOSH with his mother, aiming to "create a conversation about brain health through food, education, research and provide the tools for a 'mindstyle' lifestyle".
He has now starred in HBO's White Louts as Saxon. Patrick has never been one to shy away from showing off his toned body, having recently appeared shirtless in several scenes of The White Lotus, going as far as completely nude, which garnered widespread attention online. He also shocked fans with incest scenes.

Christopher Schwarzenegger
Christopher Schwarzenegger, 27, is the youngest child from Arnold's marriage to Maria. And unlike his siblings, he has largely kept himself out of the spotlight.
His family have given insights into his life on social media though, including Arnold sharing his pride when Christopher graduated from the University of Michigan. He wrote at the time back in 2020: "It's your your compassion, your hard work, your vision, your critical thinking, and your selflessness that make me burst with pride".
‌
He is now the Director of Development at Indus Valley Media, a Los Angeles-based production company servicing the global film and television marketplace. On his recent weight loss, a source to Hollywood Life revealed: "He started working out and making better food choices.
"He was away at school, living like a typical college kid for a few years, but he's growing up now and ready to take better care of himself."
Joseph Baena
‌
Arnold fathered his son Joseph Baena, now 27, with the family's housekeeper Mildred Baena, now 62, whilst he was married to his then-wife Maria.
Joseph - who competed on the latest season of Dancing with the Stars, which was broadcast last year - is understood to be a bodybuilder, fitness model and actor. He has pursued other opportunities too, including having launched a career as a real estate agent in 2021. And according to his Instagram profile, Joseph is also DJ.
