Arnold Schwarzenegger is one of the most iconic stars in Hollywood thanks to his roles in the Terminator movies.
With the immense fame that came with his public image, came a lot of X-rated antics and Arnold, or the women in his life, have been very open about what he got up to behind closed doors.
As the Austrian-American bodybuilder turns 73, Daily Star Online is having a rummage through Arnie’s dirty laundry.
From open relationships to having sex five times a day, a secret love child to a gym orgy, it seems there isn’t much that the Conan the Barbarian star hasn’t done.
Open relationship

Arnold and his former girlfriend Sue Moray were in an open relationship, she claimed.
He met the Beverly Hills hairdresser’s assistant on Venice Beach in July 1977 and they were free to see other people.
Sue previously claimed: “We were faithful when we were both in LA… but when he was out of town, we were free to do whatever we wanted.”
However later in the same year, it seems Arnold grew closer towards someone else, as he started dating Maria Shriver.
Sue told the Evening Standard in 2003 that other partners were “part of the turn-on for us”.
She said: “He would tell me. Then I would tell him. But when I did, he got really mad. All he ever said about [Shriver] was that she was ‘just a friend’, but I didn’t believe him.”
Gym ‘gang bang’

In a 1977 interview with Oui magazine, when Arnold was 29 years old, he revealed he had engaged in a “gang bang” with other bodybuilders.
In the article, titled Arnold Schwarzenegger on the Sex Secrets of Bodybuilders, he described a group sex session in a gym in Venice.
The interviewer asked him if he was referring to a “gang bang”, and he confirmed.
However he added it was “not everybody”, instead just bodybuilders who were willing to have sex in front of other men.
Arnie referenced the sordid comments in 2003 at the starts of his political campaign, labelling them “crazy and outrageous” – but did not deny them.
He said on a Sacramento radio station: “I never lived my life to be a politician. I never lived my life to be the governor of California.
“Obviously, I’ve made statements that were ludicrous and crazy and outrageous and all of those things, because that’s the way I always was.”
X-rated Playgirl shoot

A year after his “gang bang” bombshell, Arnold was set to pose in a saucy shoot for Playgirl magazine.
He said in his book that it would be set in “a traditional beer hall, but instead of hefty German women serving the beer steins…it would be young sexy girls with bare t**s.”
By then he was in a relationship with Maria Shriver, and he claims she convinced him to shell out $7,000 to stop it from being published.
The muscle man said it wasn’t jealousy behind Maria’s request, but that she was thinking of his career instead.
“I thought you wanted to go into movies?” he says she asked him. “So if you pose with those girls and their t**s hanging out, is that going to make producers say, ‘Hey, wow! I want this guy’? I doubt it.
“What’s your goal in doing this? Since there’s no goal and it’s not going to lead anywhere, kill it.”
However Arnold had already posed nude for After Dark magazine in 1977, which had a large gay following.
Sex fives times a day

Back in 2013, Arnold’s pal Tom Arnold claimed the star had sex five times a day as a way to keep fit.
True Lies star Tom told the Daily Star: “Arnie has a tremendous sex drive. There are women who come over. He is not lonely. He has female companions.
“He does have a lot of needs and he believes it is all part of the fitness. Five times a day, as he says.
“It is a good number. A lot of women won’t do that, but he is in great shape.”
The claims came after Arnold had split from his wife Maria Shriver after 25 years of marriage.
Trying everything

Brigitte Nielsen claimed she and Arnold “tried every sex act” during their affair after meeting on the set of Red Sonja in 1985.
In her book, You Only Get One Life, the Danish star detailed her short-lived romance with Arnold.
The actress penned: “I was naturally very flirty and maybe there was already something there because of our roles in the movie, I don’t know: we were supposed to be in love on screen.”
The Celebrity Big Brother star said Arnie was “very down-to-earth, though his body always seemed impossible – you couldn’t ignore it when we were running around half-naked in our battle hear”.
She opened up: “We wanted to try everything and so we did. There were no restrictions, no promises, nothing and it was a great time in my life.”
Arnold confirmed the affair in his 2012 autobiography – Total Recall: My Unbelievably True Life Story.
But he said the fling made him realise how much he wanted to be with Maria Shriver.
Secret love child

Brigitte Nielsen wasn’t the only “other woman” during Arnold’s marriage to Maria, as, in 2011, news broke that he had secretly fathered a child with their housekeeper Mildred “Patty” Baena.
Arnold confessed that he had fathered a child more than 10 years previously and he had told wife Maria, who ended their relationship after 25 years of marriage.
It transpired that for at least 10 years, he had been secretly paying child maintenance to Maria, who had continued to work at his LA mansion until shortly before the admission.

Arnold said: “I understand and deserve the feelings of anger and disappointment among my friends and family.
“There are no excuses, and I take full responsibility for the hurt I have caused. I have apologised to Maria, my children and my family. I am truly sorry.”
The child was revealed to be a son named Joseph, now 22, and Arnold has a solid relationship with him now.
He said in a 2015 interview with Howard Stern: “He’s terrific and he totally understands the situation.
“So, it all has worked out… It’s a very tough situation for him. It’s a very tough situation for my kids. Very tough situation for my family. It was tough for everybody. But it has happened and now we have to figure it out, right?”
Arnold has four other children: Katherine, 30, Christina, 29, Patrick, 26, and Christopher, 22.
