Arnold Schwarzenegger was surprised when his daughter decided “to marry an actor”.
The Terminator star – whose daughter Katherine Schwarzenegger wed Guardians of the Galaxy actor Chris Pratt in 2019 – admitted she wasn’t a fan of being on big action movie sets as a kid.
Appearing on a Zoom Kindergarten Cop reunion for Yahoo! Entertainment this week, Arnie said: “I never, ever thought that my daughter is going to marry an actor.
“I said to myself, she would be sick and tired of me dragging them to sets, having them watch me blowing up buildings and killing people. My kids always enjoyed it, but Katherine, she was crying always the first few weeks.”
However, Arnie – who also has daughter Christina, 29, and sons Patrick, 27, Christopher, 23, and 23-year-old Joseph Baena – heaped praise on Chris and described him as a “fantastic guy”.
He added: “I’m really happy because he has been a wonderful, wonderful husband to her and such a great son-in-law.”
Katherine and Chris welcomed daughter Lyla into the world in August (2020).
