If it feels like Patrick Schwarzenegger is related to literally everyone, that's because he low-key is. Patrick is part of a straight-up American Dynasty (The Kennedys, it's casual), has a bunch of famous cousins, and a bunch of even more famous in-laws. Let's get into it.
His Parents are Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver
Arnold Schwarzenegger is, well, Arnold Schwarzenegger, while Maria Shriver is a member of both the Shriver Family *and* Kennedy Family. In short, her parents were Sargent Shriver (a diplomat who ran for Vice President) and Eunice Kennedy (whose siblings included the likes of President John F. Kennedy and Robert F. Kennedy).
So yeah, Maria's uncle was JFK, which means Patrick's great-uncle was JFK.
It also means he's distant cousins with Jack Schlossberg, JFK's grandson, who recently posted this:
His Siblings Include 1) Katherine Schwarzenegger
She's the oldest child of Arnold and Maria, and married Chris Pratt in 2019—making Chris and Patrick brothers-in-law! Here they are with Katherine and Patrick's mom, Maria:
2) Christina Schwarzenegger
Christina, a producer, is also Patrick's older sister and is also pretty private. But she's been known to step out at the occasional event to support her family. Here she is with Katherine and Patrick:
3) Christopher Schwarzenegger
Christopher is Patrick's younger brother. He largely stays out of the public eye, but is apparently Vice Chair of the Special Olympics Founder's Council.
4) Joseph Baena
Joseph is Patrick's half-brother / his dad Arnold's son from an affair with his housekeeper, Mildred Patricia Baena. And honestly, Joseph might take after his dad the most due to his love for working out and body building.
In a 2023 doc, Arnold said re his affair and relationship with Joseph, "It was wrong what I did. But I don't want to make Joseph feel that he's not welcome in this world because he's very much welcome in this world. And I love him, and he's turned out to be an extraordinary young man."
Annnd that's that on the Schwarzeneggers. Back to feeling vaguely uncomfortable while watching The White Lotus, bye.
