The iconic Arnold Schwarzenegger married Maria Shriver in 1986 and the duo became the country’s power couple. However, they endured tough years after their marriage, and raised their kids well, despite all the problems. But in 2021, the couple’s daughter, Katherine Schwarzenegger, opened up about her mother’s strength in raising them at a young age.

Katherine even gave her daughter Lyla her mother’s middle name, Maria. She further discussed the respect she had for her mom. “Every morning I wake up with a newfound respect for my mom,” said Katherine.

Katherine Schwarzenegger explains Maria Shriver’s strong motherhood!

She continued, “I’ve always respected her tremendously, but I even texted her this morning because I was woken up this morning at 2 and I had my alarm going off at 3 to get ready for this, and I was just like, ‘I can’t believe you did this with four children.”

Katherine talked about how difficult it must have been for Shriver. She calls her every day and enjoys the conversation and insights she gleans from them. She continued, “And she does everything so beautifully and gracefully so I always have gained more respect for her, but I call her every single day with something, so it’s just such a fun experience and a great time so far.”

Son-in-Law Chris Pratt’s “Heart Sank” After Arnold Schwarzenegger’s Daughter Picked The Other Hollywood Chris Over Him in 2017

Despite her husband’s extravagant stardom and the turmoil her marriage went through, Shriver did a tremendous job raising her kids wonderfully. Katherine knew her mother’s hardships, and thus, gave her all the praises for raising her and her siblings. Today, all four of the Schwarzenegger kids are successful in their own way. 

The successful Schwarzenegger kids

Katherine Schwarzenegger is the oldest child in the family. Unlike her parents, she was never interested in politics since day one. She dated Pratt in 2018 and finally married him in 2019. In 2020, Lyla was born, and Eloise came into the world, thereafter. Maria herself loves Pratt and is often told he is “a fantastic guy” and “great son-in-law.” Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver’s second daughter Christina Schwarzenegger graduated from Georgetown University and was the co-executive producer of ‘Take Your Pills‘ in 2018. She worked as an editor at Gwyneth Paltrow’s lifestyle brand Goop for three years. 

Patrick Schwarzenegger is the third child in the family. He, like his father, went into acting and continues to improve with various films. Their fourth son Christopher Schwarzenegger graduated from the University of Michigan. After his graduation,  Arnold took to Instagram to hype his son, saying, “Christopher, you are a champion and I love you.”
