Mommas, Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up To Be Governators: Arnold Schwarzenegger Had Love Child With Mistress

This morning, we learned that Arnold Schwarzenegger fathered a child -- outside his marriage to Maria Shriver -- 10 years ago with a member of his household staff.

He didn't tell Maria about it until after he left his governor post.

"After leaving the governor's office I told my wife about this event, which occurred over a decade ago," he said in a statement. "I understand and deserve the feelings of anger and disappointment among my friends and family. There are no excuses and I take full responsibility for the hurt I have caused. I have apologized to Maria, my children and my family. I am truly sorry."

The mother of the baby retired from Maria and Arnold's household staff two years ago (which means the love child was eight at the time).

Ladies, take note. ... Some men will do some really awful things (and hide them) to protect their careers. Get your own pre-nup.
