Arnold Schwarzenegger must be a fun person to be around. He is a remarkable entertainer and has a way of indulging people like nobody else. However, while all his children have a very close relationship with the Terminator, his youngest son, Joseph Baena, had it otherwise. Although it’s almost hard to imagine that his own son would feel intimated by him, it’s the truth.
The 74-year-old Arnold Schwarzenegger has five children. While four of his elder children were with his ex-wife Maria Shriver, the bodybuilding legend had another child with Mildred Patricia Baena. Joseph Baena is the youngest of all siblings, and just like his father, the 24-year-old is also an ardent fitness and bodybuilding enthusiast.

Elaborating more on the situation Joseph added, “Because I grew up with my mom and I was just always nervous. I didn’t want him to think bad of me and be like Oh! What the heck is this guy doing partying all the time?”
