Arnold Schwarzenegger has been everything from a Hollywood movie star to the governor of California throughout his colorful career in the spotlight, but now he is enjoying his easiest job of all.
The 74-year-old shared one aspect he particularly loves about being a grandfather during a recent appearance on Jimmy Kimmel's talk show on Thursday.
"I'll tell you one thing that it is the easiest thing to be a grandfather," he said. "Because they come over to the house, you play with Lyla for around an hour or two, I put her on the horse, I put her with the dog, I play with the dog, and after two hours, they leave. Over. It's fantastic, I tell you."
Watch Arnold Schwarzenegger open up about being a grandfather:
Schwarzenegger and his ex-wife, Maria Shriver, are grandparents to one-year-old Lyla, the daughter of Katherine Schwarzenegger Pratt and husband Chris Pratt.
At his lavish property, the former bodybuilder has a miniature donkey and a miniature horse among several farm animals at his house, so entertaining little Lyla is easy.
Schwarzenegger Pratt is now pregnant with her second child but has remained tight-lipped on the baby's gender... at least with her father.
He thinks her trust level in him keeping it a secret is probably as low as her level of trust in him to change Lyla's diapers.
"I really don’t know, but I do blow it a lot of times, absolutely correct, because I can’t shut my mouth, blah, blah, blah, and all that stuff," he said.
"It could easily be that they know," he continued. "I don’t think so because I remember that my wife never wanted to know."
"For us, it was always a guessing kind of a game, and so I think because Katherine is a lot like Maria, I think that she probably would go in the same direction and not want to know. This is just a guess, and also she cannot trust me," he added.
Schwarzenegger has gushed about being a grandfather since Lyla was born in August 2020, calling it "fantastic" in an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel's show last year.
