Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver break up
Sorry to hear that Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver are breaking up after 25 years of marriage. It's hardly news when a high-profile couple with Hollywood connections calls it quits. But they had quite a run together. Shriver has been residing apart from the actor-turned-politician for the last few weeks, according to the Los Angeles Times. In a joint statement released Monday, they said, "At this time, we are living apart while we work on the future of our relationship. We are continuing to parent our four children together."
Schwarzenegger is best known for his movies (including my favorite, "True Lies") and his stint as California's governor. As an author, he's credited with "Arnold: The Education of a Bodybuilder," co-written with Douglas Kent Hall, and other body-building how-tos. Shriver, a former NBC anchor, has written a number of books designed to offer guidance to young people. Among them: "Ten Things I Wish I'd Known Before I Went Out into the Real World," "And One More Thing Before You Go..." and "Just Who Will You Be?"
Comments
With the demise of his political career (some would argue at his own hands), one has to wonder whether Ms Shriver exactly finds her union with Mr Schwarzenegger completely compelling, and on the same token one has to wonder what’s on Mr Schwarzenegger’s mind now he is set to return making Hollywood movies? Perhaps just a natural flow of events, or the demise of a strategic relationship that no longer bore any fruit.

Nobody has a responsibility to stay with somebody that makes them unhappy. Ultimately, it's worse for the children, not better. Not everyone is miserable because their parents split up. Or maybe, I dunno, they should do like Come on now says and stick it out and hate each other in their old age because, you know, that would be better for everyone especially the future grandkids who ask their parents things like, "Why don't grandma and grandpa talk to one another?" or "Why are they mean to each other?" Yeah, that's TOTALLY better. *rolls eyes* http://bit.ly/lXgReE

It’s always sad to see any two people with children go their seperate way. Too me , there is no right to it or wrong to it..It just simply is.
