As the Austrian Oak moved from bodybuilding to the Hollywood industry, the foundation stones for him to become an unstoppable action star were already laid. It was only when he took an unexpected turn into politics that he broke the stereotype and achieved something too large to be capsulated as the American Dream. However, when news of his fathering an employee’s child broke out, it broke something more precious than the empire he had set up. His home. “I have caused enough pain for my family,” he said while thinking back.
