“Some information I just keep to myself,” said Arnold Schwarzenegger, in an interview with Lesley Stahl on 60 Minutes interview last night.

The former governor and actor did the interview to promote his new book, Total Recall: My Unbelievably True Story, a memoir from Simon & Schuster that came out today.

In the interview, Schwarznegger talked about his scandal of having had an affair with his housekeeper Mildred Baena and getting her pregnant, at the time that his wife Maria Shriver was pregnant. ”I found out about it kind of seven year or eight years in,” he to Stahl. He said that it didn’t occur to him that the child was his, because she was with another man.

“I have caused enough pain to everyone as it is, if it is my to my, so I don’t want to reawaken and talk about it because its not going to help them and I just want to protect them as much as I can,” said Schwarzenegger to Stahl.

RadarOnline.com speculated this weekend that Maria Shriver could receive $15 million or more for a hypothetical tell-all book after her divorce from former governor Arnold Schwarzenegger. Despite the provocative post, Shriver has not expressed any desire to write such a book.

Here’s more from the article: “One top publishing exec told RadarOnline.com that California’s former First Lady could garner more than the all-time advance record, the $15 million paid to Bill Clinton for his memoir, My Life … But a tell-all about growing up a Kennedy and especially her life with the cheating Arnold and learning he fathered a child by their maid, that’s a whole different story — literally — and it could set sales records.”

Shriver has written three nonfiction titles and three picture books. Her 2000 title, Ten Things I’d Wish I’d Known Before I Went Out Into The Real World, was based on a commencement address she gave at the College of the Holy Cross. Shriver has also established a successful career as a television journalist with two Emmy Award wins under her belt.
