Arnold Schwarzenegger’s love child is his mini me!

Calling Conan the Barbarian Jr!
Joseph Baena

Arnold Schwarzenegger’s secret love child Joseph Baena is the spitting image of his buff father.

The 18-year-old, who grew up in Bakersfield, California, was recently spotted with a friend in Malibu.

And its clear Joseph has taken after his father with the same strapping build and long locks circa Arnie’s ‘80s days.

Joseph is now 18-years-old.

And he reminds us so much of his father from his Conan days!

And judging by his buff appearance, body building is hereditary!

In fact, TMZ’s Harvey Weinstein recently bumped into the father-son duo working out while at Gold’s Gym at Venice Beach in LA.

The teen is the love child from his affair with his family’s housekeeper Mildred Patricia Baena.

Arnold was married to Maria Shriver at the time of the fling with Mildred, who fell pregnant with Joseph in 1997.

Years later, in 2011 the truth came out, resulting in Maria, now 60, ending their marriage of over 25 years.

The couple were married for 25 years before Maria found out about the affair with Mildred (inset).

Arnie told 60 minutes didn’t know he was Joseph’s father until the boy “started looking like me, that’s when I kind of got it. I put things together.”

Adding, “The important thing that everyone should know is that I take care of him and I take care of [his mother]. And I fulfil my responsibility and I’m glad to do that.”

Arnold and Maria have four children – Katherine, 26, Christina, 24, Patrick, 22, and their youngest 18-year-old Christopher, 18, who was born just five days before his half-brother.

The entire family.

Baby Joseph with his mum.

For the former Californian governor, his kids are the most important thing to him.

Over the weekend, the proud papa couldn’t contain his joy over Patrick graduating from the Marshall School of Business at the University of Southern California.

“Patrick, I’m so proud of you,” he penned on Facebook.

“You have grown into a great man — physically and mentally — and I can’t wait to see what you do next. Congratulations. I love you.”

The former couple reunited to celebrate their son’s achievement.

That pride extends to all his kids, especially Joseph.

Talking to Howard Stern just a year ago, Arnie briefly touched on how accommodating his love child has been throughout the entire ordeal.

“He’s terrific and he totally understands the situation,” the Terminator star quipped.

“So, it all has worked out … It’s a very tough situation for him.”

“It’s a very tough situation for my kids, very tough situation for my family. It was tough for everybody.”

“But it has happened and now we have to figure it out, right?”
