The Terminator legend Arnold Schwarzenegger has revealed that his affair with his family's housekeeper wasn't the first time he cheated on his partner Maria Shriver.
The action star and former California governor admits in his new autobiography to a "hot affair" with actress Brigitte Nielsen while they filmed Red Sonja together back in 1985. Arnold and Maria were living together at the time, Time magazine reports.
Arnold, now 65, never thought the relationship with gorgeous Brigitte was serious and says that the fling with her only convinced him that he wanted to marry Maria - he writes in Total Recall: My Unbelievably True Life Story, according to Time.
Nielsen, now 49, wrote in her own autobiography last year about an "outrageous affair" with Schwarzenegger but said she didn't know he was with Maria at the time.
Maria meanwhile filed for divorce in 2011 after her cheating husband revealed his affair with the family's housekeeper Mildred Baena which produced a son, Joseph, now a teenager. The affair made headlines at the time, with many being shocked by Arnold's womanising ways.

During his initial campaign for governor, allegations of sexual and personal misconduct were raised against Schwarzenegger, dubbed "Gropegate". Within the last five days before the election, news reports appeared in the Los Angeles Times recounting allegations of sexual misconduct from several individual women, six of whom eventually came forward with their personal stories.
