Arnold Schwarzenegger’s son Christopher posed alongside his family in a rare snap of the siblings together.
The Terminator star’s daughter Katherine shared the family photo via a recent Instagram post. The photo also featured fellow siblings Christina Schwarzenegger, 33, and Patrick Schwarzenegger, 31, all of which Arnold shares with ex-wife Maria Shriver.
“My favorites forever and always,” Katherine, 35, captioned the image.
The siblings also have a half-brother, Joseph Baena, 27, who the Kindergarten Cop star fathered with the family’s former housekeeper, Mildred “Patty” Baena, after having an affair while still married to Shriver. Baena was not present for the family photo.
Christopher, 27, largely keeps out of the spotlight, so when fans noticed his appearance next to his brother and sisters, they were quick to comment on the post.
“Wow amazing! Christopher is looking really good now!” wrote one follower, while another added, “Such a beautiful family! 😍”
Meanwhile, Patrick has followed in his father’s footsteps and pursued an acting career. He recently starred in season three of The White Lotus, where he played Saxon Ratliff.
The Schwarzenegger siblings, their parents and Katherine’s husband, actor Chris Pratt, all attended the show’s star-studded premiere in Los Angeles in February and posed for photos on the red carpet.
During a recent appearance on The Drew Barrymore Show, Patrick was asked whether his parents ever join him to watch the series.
The actor confessed that “it was a little nerve-wracking watching the first episode with my whole family because I do take some clothes off.”
Patrick, who features in some full frontal scenes in The White Lotus, said there were some episodes he’d steer clear of watching with his mom and dad.
“I think some upcoming episodes I’m going to watch without them,” he added. “[I] would definitely take a bathroom break [if things get too awkward]. The next episodes, they’re crazy.”
Arnold and Shriver divorced in 2011 but they have amicably navigated coparenting together following their split. (The actor married Maria in April 1986 after first meeting in 1977. The pair announced their separation in May 2011 amid reports of infidelity on Arnold’s part.)
“We are very proud of the way we raised our kids,” Arnold told The Hollywood Reporter in May 2023. “Even though we had this drama, we did Easter together, Mother’s Day together, the Christmases together, all birthdays — everything together.”
The actor continued, “If there’s Oscars for how to handle divorce, Maria and I should get it for having the least amount of impact on the kids.”
