Goodbye HELLO! Your interview with Arnold’s baby mama/housekeeper has as much ring of truth as Hugh Hefner’s fiance suddenly calling of their wedding because she just discovered she doesn’t like the Playboy lifestyle.
Shame on the network news reporters I watched this morning who naively played the story from HELLO! as if it was a journal of record.
The headline on the magazine’s website reads:
HELLO! exclusive: Mildred Baena, the housekeeper who had a child with Arnold Schwarzenegger speaks out for the first time
HELLO! then says that Baena has come out of weeks of hiding to “set the record straight” because of all the fictitious stories circulating in the media. This, they add, will be her first and only interview exclusively to HELLO! magazine.
My first question is: how much was she paid and why would she choose a British publication over an American one if she needed to separate fact from fiction.
Perhaps those fictitious stories included the widely published one that she had to pull her son out of school and deprive him of his middle school graduation to protect him from potential media exploitation. (Imagine those animals lying in wait to grab a photo of the illegitimate Schwarzenegger child and zap it around the world for all to see!) It turns out the likely reason the boy missed that special rite of passage was because his mother wanted to exploit him herself, selling that exclusive mother-son photo to HELLO! — presumably the highest bidder.

Schwarzenegger Fathered A Child With Member Of Household Staff
We live in tough emotional times, for sure. First on my list of news that has made me genuinely sad, the one prompting this cathartic column, that Arnold Schwarzenegger has confirmed to the L.A. TImes that his marriage broke up after he told his wife, Maria Shriver, that he fathered a child over a decade ago with a member of the “household staff” who continued to work for them until she “retired” this January.
update: The feeding frenzy has begun. And at 7:49 this evening Radar Online.com, in a joint investigation with Star magazine, has identified 50-year-old Mildred Baena (seen in their exclusive photo) as the mother of Arnold Schwarzenegger’s love child,.
For her part, Maria Shriver released a short statement saying she is heartbroken and said, as a mother, she is concerned for her children.
Today, there’s also been a warmed-over story from 2003 percolating: a British tabloid alleged that a former stewardess who worked on the family’s private jet, Tammy Faye Tousignant, had Schwarzenegger’s “love” child, a boy who would now be around 18 years old.
That article, along with Tammy Faye, were widely ignored in America in 2003. But now, with the L.A. Times revelations, she is being hounded. She’s denying Schwarzenegger is the father of her son, and has changed her phone number. Her lawyer now says she has a DNA test to prove she’s telling the truth.
For his part, the boy, described by an on-line gossip column as having a familiar toothy grin, reportedly told one reporter not to waste his time; this was a politically motivated story invented eight years ago. Riddle me this: was Tammy Faye an intentional red herring? Read the rest of this entry »
