Identity of Schwarzenegger Spawngate Staffer Revealed

In a "world exclusive" report, tabloid site RadarOnline has revealed the identity of the staffer with whom former California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger had a son. Her name is Mildred Patricia Baena, she goes by the name Patty, she is 50 years old, and her son was born about 14 years ago.
Baena was employed for 20 years as a housekeeper in the home Schwarzenegger shared with his wife, Maria Shriver, and ultimately their four children. According to ABC News, Baena did not reside at the home; she currently lives in a four-bedroom home described as being located "well outside Los Angeles" with her three other children and the son she had with Schwarzenegger. She divorced her husband in 2008.
Baena's MySpace profile, which is curiously still public, says she is 47, single and looking, and lives in Calabasas. Among the photos in her album "My Sexy Self" include shots of her with the son that bears an undeniable resemblance to Schwarzenegger. MySpace users have begun to use the comments sections for the photos to share their varied responses to Baena and her son's appearances.
During the time Baena was working as the Schwarzenegger's housekeeper and pregnant with her employer's son, Maria Shriver was also pregnant with her fourth child with Schwarzenegger, their son Patrick.
Maria Shriver made her first public appearance yesterday as a participant in the star-studded taping of Oprah Winfrey's final show in Chicago.
