Arnold Schwarzenegger's son Joseph Baena shares uncanny resemblance in snaps
Arnold Schwarzenegger's son Joseph Baena has posted a new snap with the young man sharing an uncanny resemblance to the acting legend.
Back in 1996 the Commando actor, who is now 76 years of age, had an affair with the family housekeeper, Mildred Baena, which led to her falling pregnant. Mildred then welcomed her child just five days after Arnold's then-wife Maria Shriver gave birth to their son Christopher. At the time, nobody knew that Mildred's son was actually Arnold's child, or that Christopher was his half-brother.
When Joseph grew up, Mildred was quick to notice that her young boy looked a lot like Arnold, with them said to have shared striking similarities. And then in 2010, when Joseph was 13, he found out who his biological dad was when the media announced it. Arnold then confirmed the speculation in 2011.
