(CBS/AP) - Two days after Hollywood icon and former California governor Arnold Schwarzenegger admitted that he had fathered a love child with a member of his household staff, media reports have named the woman as housekeeper Mildred Baena.

RadarOnline.com and Star Magazine broke the story, with TMZ and ABC News confirming.

According to ABC News, Baena, known as Patty, had worked for Schwarzenegger as an assistant and housekeeeper for more than 20 years.

According to RadarOnline.com, Baena threatened to go public with the news that she had given birth to Schwarzenegger's son 14 years ago, and that prompted the actor's public admission.

Schwarzenegger and Shriver jointly announced May 9 that they were splitting up after 25 years of marriage. Yet, Shriver moved out of the family's Brentwood mansion earlier in the year after Schwarzenegger acknowledged the child is his, The Los Angeles Times reported Tuesday.

"After leaving the governor's office I told my wife about this event, which occurred over a decade ago," Schwarzenegger told the Times in a statement that also was sent to The Associated Press early Tuesday. "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.

Instead of rejoicing that a child is born, she destroys her family and tries to shame her husband. Clearly she was not fulfilling her marital responsibilities. Her concept of marriage is keeping a man locked up. He can't have her and he can't have anyone else either. What a selfish, rotten person.; Reply to this comment


by tellerstein May 28, 2011 3:24 PM EDT: Hillary forgave Bill! Is Maria capable of forgiving Arnold and Mildred? He has given Maria the time of her life. Theirs is one of the more successful marriages in the United States. He has given Mildred the time of her life, too. Mildred has to take responsibility for her sexual reproduction. Having oral sex is not the same magnitude as having a child. Protected sex, abstention, contraceptives, morning after pill and abortion are all the alternatives that would have spared everyone involved this disgrace. Why would Maria approve this woman to be her housekeeper?; Reply to this comment

by jcmann01 May 25, 2011 7:36 PM EDT: Arnold Schwarzenegger did a movie about 10 years ago, called, End of Days, where the devil trying to use him to impregnate a woman on the altar in order to usher in the anti-Christ. This is really bizarre, but if you stop to think about it, he was sneaking around his estate, probably late at night, banging the house keeper at the same time he was filming this weird movie and this movie is about as weird as it gets. Now he has to deal with the fall out from his wild days.; Reply to this comment

by moonflower2010 May 22, 2011 12:14 AM EDT: hard to believe that Maria was so blind to all of this. How could she not know? I'm not buying it. Of course, I place no blame on the child caught in the middle. None of it is his fault.; Reply to this comment
