Arnold Schwarzenegger and his wife, Maria Shriver, separated after the former governor revealed he had fathered a child with a member of their household staff.
The former governor has told The Los Angeles Times that Shriver moved out of the family's Brentwood mansion earlier this year after he acknowledged the child was his.
The couple announced in a joint statement that they had separated after 25 years of marriage.
"After leaving the governor's office I told my wife about this event, which occurred over a decade ago," Schwarzenegger said in a statement issued to the newspaper.
"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.
"I ask that the media respect my wife and children through this extremely difficult time.While I deserve your attention and criticism, my family does not," the statement concluded.
The former staffer's name has not been revealed, nor that of her child, but the staff member worked for the family for 20 years and retired in January.
