They say the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. This is perhaps why Hollywood is full of nepotism and the term nepo-baby has gained popularity as of late. Arnold Schwarzenegger's son Christopher Schwarzenegger is looking like a very chiseled chip off the old block.
Unlike his more public siblings, Christopher tends to stay out of the limelight. He has been making silent moves in the gym lately as evident by his weight loss and bulging muscles. TMZ even took notice, so he has to be doing something right!
Christopher was born on September 27, 1997, to parents Arnold and Maria Shriver. He attended the University of Michigan, graduating in 2020, during the pandemic. That was also when he began his weight-loss journey.
Arnold celebrated Christopher’s graduation on Instagram. He posted an edited a picture of Christopher walking across the stage since he was not able to in real life because of COVID-19 protocols.
"Christopher, you are a champion and I love you," Arnold gushed. "I know your graduation from Michigan wasn't the big celebration you dreamed about for years, but walking across a stage isn't what makes me so proud of you: it's your compassion, your hard work, your vision, your critical thinking, and your selflessness that make me burst with pride. I can't wait to watch you keep climbing and succeeding."

Arnold also took to Instagram to celebrate Christopher's fitness journey in 2021. "Between your boxing classes, your weightlifting classes, your stretching classes, your cycling classes, and on and on, I can't even keep up with you!" he mused. "I love you and I'm proud of you every day!"
