Schwarzenegger on Jimmy Kimmel
In 2019, Schwarzenegger told Jimmy Kimmel he gets along well with his-son-in-law — especially since they started hitting the gym together
“I get along with him really well,” Schwarzenegger revealed at the time. “Of course, the first thing when we met, he says, ‘Can we have a workout together? I need to have the inside scoop to the pumping iron.’”
“Pumping iron was the decision-making factor, absolutely. We were in the gym, that was it,” he continued. “I was blown away when my daughter was telling me that she was going out with him. [I was like], ‘Do you have to be so competitive? I mean, do you have to have a guy that is taller than me, that is bigger than me, that is doing bigger movies than me … makes more money than me? What is going on here?’”
“I’m really happy that he is such a great guy,” Schwarzenegger added. “Not only a very talented guy and a great actor and a great star and all this stuff, but a really kind man and kind to my daughter, which is the most important thing for me.”
