Schwarzenegger now open to shoulder Shriver support

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Arnold Schwarzenegger (photo) has amended a divorce filing and withdrawn a request that a judge terminate Maria Shriver’s rights to spousal support.

The actor and former California governor’s filing replaces a document he submitted last week that also indicated he wanted Maria to pay her own attorney’s fees. The amended response filed last Monday in Los Angeles states Arnold is also willing to pay his estranged wife’s attorney.

The former couple’s 13-year-old son remains hospitalized after a recent body-boarding accident left him with a collapsed lung.

Maria filed for divorce last July 1. Her petition to end the couple’s 25-year-marriage came weeks after Arnold revealed he fathered a child with a member of his household staff years ago.
