Gossip: Arnold Schwarzenegger, Maria Shriver
Schwarzenegger is refiling his divorce papers after initially contesting Shriver’s request for spousal support and legal fees.
Arnold Schwarzenegger plans to pay Maria Shriver spousal support after all, said HollywoodLife.com. The former California governor, 63, is refiling his divorce papers after he initially sought to contest Shriver’s request for spousal support and legal fees. Schwarzenegger had reportedly signed the original documents without reading them, as the family dealt with a crisis when son Christopher, 13, suffered a boogie board accident that sent him to the intensive-care unit. Despite the rift, sources say the couple are planning to split their estimated $400 million fortune equally.
