Maria Shriver and Arnold Schwarzenegger
Maria Shriver is known not only for the fact that she is the niece of the 35th US President John F. Kennedy. For 25 years, she was married to the popular Hollywood actor Arnold Schwarzenegger and gave birth to four children: sons Patrick and Christopher and daughters Catherine and Christina.
However, in 2011, the couple announced their divorce. It turned out that the governor of California had been cheating on his wife for many years with their maid Mildred Patricia Baena and was the father of her son. Arnold bought a cottage for the second family and kept in touch with an illegitimate child.
Maria explained her decision to divorce after 25 years with “irreconcilable differences.” The divorce of Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver can be considered the longest in the history of show business. Due to the division of property, the divorce process dragged on for a dozen years and officially ended only in 2021.
Plastic surgery
It is rumored that Maria began to visit a plastic surgeon immediately after the divorce process began in 2011.
Every year Maria Shriver’s face becomes more and more unrecognizable. Fans suggest that the reason for this could be a long divorce process with the actor and the abuse of Botox injections.
In 2022, the former wife of Schwarzenegger, 66-year-old Maria Shriver appeared in public, shocking the public with her appearance. The journalist got into the lenses of reporters who caught her on a Los Angeles street without makeup.
Photos of Shriver appeared on the Network and users immediately saw drastic changes in the woman’s appearance: the face is covered with wrinkles, the shape of the nose has been changed, lips have been enlarged, scars are visible on the hands. Many believe that Shriver began the pursuit of youth and spoiled her appearance with botox injections and plastic surgery.
The shocking appearance of Schwarzenegger’s ex-wife was discussed by netizens. Fans reacted with heated discussion and criticism: “Do Sylvester Stallone and Maria Shriver have the same plastic surgeon?” Internet users decided that such an appearance was nothing but the consequences of unsuccessful plastic surgeries and Botox injections.
Experts in the field of aesthetic medicine suspect that there was no surgical intervention. Botox injections most likely provoked an unnatural facial expression and the position of the eyebrows.
Probably, an excessive amount of fillers was introduced. Therefore, Maria’s pronounced cheekbones and lower jaw became more massive. Edema on the lower eyelids may have appeared due to hyaluronic acid.
Experts believe that it is better for Schwarzenegger’s ex-wife to get rid of fillers and have a surgical facelift.
