'Daddy day care' no more: Arnold Schwarzenegger bonds with sons Christopher and Patrick over lunch in Brentwood

Arnold Schwarzenegger, the iconic "Terminator" star and former governor of California, once famously said, "I love each of my kids, just like any parent, and I'm proud of all of them." Looking back to December 2021, we can see this sentiment in action, as reported by the Daily Mail. Arnold was spotted in Brentwood, joining his sons Patrick and Christopher Schwarzenegger for a friendly lunch outing, demonstrating the enduring bonds between them.

A Blast from the Past: Lunch with the Schwarzenegger Boys

Decked out in a fur-lined sleeveless leather jacket, a dark green t-shirt, and black pants, the former 'Governator' was ready for an afternoon with his progeny. Meanwhile, Patrick Schwarzenegger, freshly blonde, and the less-publicly-seen Christopher Schwarzenegger, met their father at RD Kitchen for a heartwarming reunion.

The 74-year-old actor was later seen donning a bright purple jacket, cycling through Santa Monica with a friend, basking in the cool coastal breeze behind his tinted sunglasses. No doubt, a day filled with familial bonds and casual strolls, Schwarzenegger seems to know how to balance his personal and public life.

"I love each of my kids, just like any parent, and I'm proud of all of them." He once shared these heartfelt sentiments, and his actions reaffirm these words, despite the tumultuous past surrounding his family.

The former Mr. Universe and Maria Shriver, a journalist and author, became proud parents to four children: Katherine, Christina, Patrick, and Christopher Schwarzenegger, but a scandal in 2011 led to their separation. It was revealed that Schwarzenegger fathered a son, Joseph, with the family's housemaid, Mildred Baena, which ended his marriage with Shriver formally in 2017.

Post-divorce, Schwarzenegger not only managed to maintain cordial relationships with his children but also developed a bond with his son, Joseph. His Instagram is frequently graced with images of his 'Daddy Day Care' moments. "I love each of my kids, just like any parent, and I'm proud of all of them," Schwarzenegger declared, showcasing the love and respect he harbors for his offspring.
