The former power couple finalized their divorce on Tuesday, December 28, more than 10 years after pulling the plug on their marriage.
According to TMZ, a judge in Los Angeles signed the official judgement legally ending their 25-year marriage. The 66-year-old journalist filed for divorce from the movie star on July 1, 2011, after news broke that Arnold fathered a child, Joseph Baena, with his family housekeeper.
The actor later admitted the claims and has since gone on to share photos and videos of himself bonding with Joseph.
According to reports, the property settlement and division of the couple’s $400 million fortune is confidential, but according to sources, it will likely be split equally.
Arnold and Maria married on April 26, 1986, and share four kids – Katherine, 32, Christina, 30, Patrick, 28, and Christopher, 24.
The report also states that the couple’s divorce took a decade to finalize as it was a combination of ‘lack of motivation’ and a ‘very complicated property settlement’ agreement. The couple moved on years ago and has been in relationships, but continue to be cordial with each other and co-parent their children.
