Earlier, bodybuilding legend Arnold Schwarzenegger‘s daughter appeared on The Nikki & Brie Show. The twins and recently retired WWE divas invited the author to their podcast. During the episode, the trio chatted about life, career, family, and more. However, when Nikki and Brie Bella asked the 33-year-old about Arnold Schwarzenegger and her childhood memories with the bodybuilding legend, she opened up about a revelation she had.

“You had the most bada** dad ever,” Brie Bella told Katherine, asking how she felt having the biggest action star as her father. “Did that phase you at all?” added the former WWE wrestler. Schwarzenegger had nothing out of the ordinary to say. However, she made a riveting confession about realizing something about her childhood after marrying Chris Pratt.

While asking the 33-year-old author about her childhood, Brie Bella asked if Arnie’s “buff” physique and stardom made her feel singled out. However, Schwarzenegger didn’t recall feeling that “anything was different” for her or her siblings. “My dad, like physically, he was bigger” than the other “dads” Katherine Schwarzenegger came across, but besides that, Arnie was like any other parent.

However, now that she sees her husband, Chris Pratt’s films, she realizes the Terminator actor mostly stars in action movies. “The movies that he filmed when we were growing up were not kid-friendly,” said Katherine Schwarzenegger. However, such isn’t the case with her husband, Guardians of the Galaxy star Chris Pratt.

While Chris Pratt has also built a reputation as an action hero, he started out in comedy. From starring in superhero films to his latest video game adaptation, The Super Mario Bros. Movie, Pratt has a versatile filmography. “I didn’t see anything of my dad’s until I was way older,” said Arnie’s daughter. However, Schwarzenegger did make one kid-friendly film during his prime, and it became a classic.
