Joseph Baena is an American actor, bodybuilder, model, and real estate agent. He’s the son of the popular “Terminator” lead actor, Arnold Schwarzenegger. He was born from a romantic affair the iconic actor had with his maid, Mildred Patricia Baena.
As a curious child, Joseph found out his father was Arnold Schwarzenneger at the age of 13. He must have gone through a roller coaster of emotion before he understood what that meant.
He said “I was in the eighth grade. Fifth or sixth period. And I get called out of class to leave. My mom’s there, and she’s like, ‘We gotta go — everyone is finding out about you and who your father is.”
Joseph decided not to use his father’s name and continued using his mother’s name. An impressive decision.
