Arnold Schwarzenegger 'wants second chance'

Arnold Schwarzenegger has reportedly begged estranged wife Maria Shriver for "one last chance" to save their marriage.

The pair separated earlier this month after 25 years of marriage following the revelation that Schwarzenegger had fathered a secret love child with a former family housekeeper.

However, unauthorized Schwarzenegger biographer Ian Halperin claimed that the former California governor is desperate to reunite with his wife and avoid a divorce.

"He's actually shed tears. He knows he's done wrong, and he's begging on his knees for forgiveness and one last chance," Halperin told Extra "Arnold has been making calls to Maria repeatedly, asking her for one more chance."

He went on to say that Shriver has not been responsive to the pleas, adding: "Maria wants no part of it."

It was recently reported that Shriver plans to file for divorce from Schwarzenegger in the upcoming days.

Schwarzenegger has put his film career on hold following the scandal.
