Maria Shriver is set to buy a $10 million home near estranged husband Arnold Schwarzenegger because she wants the pair to have an amicable relationship for the sake of their children.
The 55-year-old writer has split from the Terminator star earlier this year after it was revealed he fathered a boy named Joseph with his family's housekeeper Mildred Baena 13 years ago while they were still married, reports femalefirst.co.uk.
Shriver has four children, Katherine, 21, Christina, 19, Patrick, 17, and Christopher, 13, with the former Californian governor and is looking to purchase the luxurious property in Los Angeles district Brentwood, which is just down the road from her former marital home.
"Arnold realises he is to blame for the collapse of his marriage. Maria was a loving wife and mother, and he doesn't think that any amount can minimize what he has put her through. He wants to do the right thing, and go above and beyond what is required of him under the law," said a source.
