Inside Katherine Schwarzenegger's Relationship With Her Dad

May 2024 ยท 2 minute read

During a 2014 episode of Bethenny, Bethenny Frankel asked Katherine Schwarzenegger if guys get intimidated because her father is Arnold Schwarzenegger. She replied, "I usually sit down and someone will start imitating my dad... or ask me like, 'Oh, can you go home and ask your dad how to properly bench press for me?' No, why don't you take him on a date?" Frankel suggested, "You have to date someone way more famous than your parents, if that's possible."

According to Arnold himself, that's what Katherine actually did. During a 2019 Jimmy Kimmel Live appearance, he shared his reaction when he learned Katherine was dating Chris Pratt: "Do you have to have a guy that is taller than me? That is bigger than me? That is doing bigger movies than me and all this kind of stuff that makes more money than me?" Of course, he was kidding.

Arnold told Jimmy Kimmel, "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." At least he asked Arnold himself for some tips, instead of pushing gym talk on Katherine. Arnold joked, "That pumping iron was the decision-making factor. Absolutely."

He added, "I'm really happy that he is such a great guy. Not only a really talented guy and a great actor, but a really kind man and kind to my daughter, which is the most important thing for me."
