Bodybuilder-turned-actor, Arnold Schwarzenegger, is one of the most renowned personalities in the US. Schwarzenegger came into the limelight after his huge success in bodybuilding. Notably, ‘The Austrian Oak’ is a seven times Mr. Olympia champ and has also won several other bodybuilding accolades.

After bodybuilding, Schwarzenegger made it big in the Hollywood industry. He is widely famous for his role in the blockbuster movie, ‘Terminator.’ Schwarzenegger’s ex-wife, Maria Shriver, had once revealed her Hollywood crushes and surprisingly, Arnold was not one of them. However, the revelation left their daughter embarrassed on social media.

Who is Maria Shriver’s star crush?

Shriver is an American journalist, author, and elite member of the Kennedy family. She is also the former First Lady of California. Schwarzenegger and Shriver married in 1986 and later got legally divorced in 2021.

In 2020, during the COVID-19 pandemic, Shriver was quarantined at her home in Brentwood. The renowned journalist seemed to have watched the movie – ‘Once Upon a Time in Hollywood.’ She then posted a meme featuring movie leads Brad Pitt and Leonardo DiCaprio that had a caption, “They came to pick me up, but I was strong & I told them I’m staying home.”
