Arnold Schwarzenegger has announced that he is not engaged to his partner Heather Milligan after the physiotherapist was spotted wearing a ring on her wedding finger in London this week.
The Terminator star, 76, stepped out with Milligan, 48, at private members club Annabel’s in the UK capital on Tuesday.
Milligan flaunted her ever-present figure as she opted for all black with a stylish top and trousers – but all eyes quickly turned to the dazzling ring on her finger.
However, sources confirmed TMZ Arnold and Heather are not engaged.
Arnold was previously married to Maria Shriver, 67, but the couple split in 2011 after it emerged that the star had fathered a son, Joseph Baena, with their housekeeper Mildred Baena.
His divorce from Mariah was finally finalized in 2021.
Arnold and Heather have been dating since 2013.
He also has four children with his ex-wife: daughters Katherine, 33, and Christina, 31, and sons Patrick, 29, and Christopher, 25.
Although it was difficult to navigate at first, the longtime leading man struck up a relationship with Baena, who turned out to be following in his father’s footsteps with his love of weightlifting, exercise in general, and his passion for acting.
In London, the former bodybuilder graced the stage at An Evening with Arnold Schwarzenegger presented by Vine – where he chatted with Jake Humphrey.
During the event, the Total Recall star promoted and discussed his new book Be Helpful: Seven Tools for Life.
The former California governor looked in top spirits as he took to the stage.
According to the book’s description from AmazonBe Helpful: Seven Tools for Life details “The seven rules to follow to achieve your true purpose in life – distilled by Arnold Schwarzenegger from his own journey of relentless reinvention and extraordinary achievement, and available to absolutely anyone.”
Talking to the people Regarding the book earlier this month, Schwarzenegger was asked about the key pieces of advice he’s received from stars over the years.
He said he learned a lot about the craft of acting by working alongside Academy Award winners Sally Field and Jeff Bridges in the 1976 film Stay Hungry.
Arnold said it was “a joy to watch them perform, how smooth they were, and how much I had to grow” as an actor.
The key was to “be normal” and “don’t act out,” he added, adding: “That’s what made Sally Field start crying and crying and having fits.” It was really her.
Schwarzenegger said he idolized another Oscar winner, Clint Eastwood, “because he was kind of Mr. Cool.”
“His no-fuss attitude, his ability to listen, I always liked that,” he said. “Because I always thought there was something to be said about listening.”
The book’s description noted the actor’s “incredible success” in the fields of bodybuilding, Hollywood and politics, saying that “this did not happen by chance” but rather “happened as part of a process.”
“A result of clear vision, big thinking, hard work, direct communication, flexible problem solving, open curiosity, and a commitment to giving back. All guided by the one lesson Arnold’s father imparted to him above all else: Be helpful.”
“As Arnold conquered every world he entered, he kept his father’s saying close to his heart.”
