Patrick Schwarzenegger & Abby Champion's Star-Studded Dinner with Maria Shriver

Newlyweds Patrick Schwarzenegger (2-R) and Abby Champion (R) went out for dinner with his mother Maria Shriver (2-L) and friends at the Wagyu steakhouse Matū Kai in LA's Brentwood neighborhood on Tuesday

NEPO BABY PATRICK SCHWARZENEGGER'S WHIRLWIND WEDDING

The glamorous world of Hollywood's elite was abuzz with excitement as newlyweds Patrick Schwarzenegger and Abby Champion made their first public appearance since tying the knot at a luxurious resort in Idaho. The dashing couple, who have been dating for over a decade, looked absolutely stunning as they stepped out for dinner with Patrick's mom, Maria Shriver, and friends at Matū Kai in LA's Brentwood neighborhood on Tuesday.

The 32-year-old Arnold Schwarzenegger's son was looking particularly debonair in his black leather bomber jacket, matching shirt, baggy blue jeans, and white sneakers. Meanwhile, the beautiful Abby Champion, a Next Model and BA&SH brand ambassador, rocked a bridal-white sweatshirt with blue jeans, white ballet flats, and a sleek black chain purse.

This romantic evening out was just one of many highlights in the whirlwind week that has been Patrick's wedding celebration. Just last Saturday, the lovebirds said their "I dos" at Gozzer Ranch Golf and Lake Club in Harrison, ID, surrounded by family and friends. The stunning ceremony took place atop a basalt rock bluff overlooking breathtaking views of Lake Coeur d'Alene.

But what made this union truly special was the presence of both sets of parents, including Patrick's mom Maria Shriver, who has been a pillar of strength throughout his life. The 69-year-old journalist was by Patrick's side as he took his vows, no doubt drawing from her own experience with love and heartbreak.

As we all know, Maria Shriver's marriage to the Terminator himself ended in divorce after she discovered that Arnold had fathered a child with their housekeeper, Mildred "Patty" Baena. The scandal rocked the Hollywood elite, but Maria has since emerged stronger than ever, focusing on her philanthropic work and supporting her children.

And speaking of which, Patrick's half-brother Joseph Baena was noticeably absent from the wedding festivities. According to TMZ, the reason for this snub is that Joseph has had no relationship with Arnold's side of the family in years. It seems like a complicated family dynamic indeed!

But let's get back to the love story at hand. Patrick and Abby's romance has been a long time coming – they've been together since 2013! And from what we can tell, it's been a wild ride full of ups and downs, breakups and makeups.

In fact, just last year, Patrick confessed that he was eager to start a family with his partner. "I mean, with her work right now, she's so busy and stuff," he told People magazine. "I don't know when — but I would have kids tomorrow if I could." Aw!

It was Patrick and Abby's first public sighting since tying the knot at Gozzer Ranch Golf and Lake Club in Harrison, ID last Saturday following a decade of dating

But for now, the happy couple seems to be enjoying each other's company, soaking up every moment of their whirlwind romance. After all, as Patrick himself said on Instagram, "You're my queen, ride or die, and continue to inspire me."

We can't wait to see what the future holds for these two lovebirds! Will they become Hollywood's next power couple? Only time will tell.

PATRICK'S BUSINESS VENTURES

In addition to his dashing good looks and charming personality, Patrick has also made a name for himself as a savvy entrepreneur. Along with his mom Maria Shriver, he co-founded MOSH: The Brain Brand, a granola bar company that donates a portion of its profits to Alzheimer's research.

Patrick has also invested in several successful companies, including Blaze Pizza, Super Coffee, Liquid IV, Better Bagel, and MudWtr. He's even partnered with popular brands like Venmo, Tanqueray, and Ketel One Vodka for paid promotions.

It seems like Patrick is always looking for the next big thing! And we can't help but wonder what other exciting ventures he'll be tackling in the future.

PATRICK'S ACTING CAREER

But it's not all about business with this Hollywood heartthrob. Patrick has also been making waves in the acting world, landing roles in upcoming films like Rachel Morrison's romantic drama Love of Your Life for Amazon MGM Studios, alongside Margaret Qualley and Catherine Keener.

"I love love love this script!" Patrick gushed on social media. "Y'all will love this! Such a beautiful story." We can't wait to see what he brings to the screen!

Patrick and Abby did not invited his half-brother Joseph Baena (R) since 'he has no relationship with that side of the Schwarzenegger family'

And if that weren't enough, Patrick has also been cast in Alec Griffen Roth's indie drama Billy Knight alongside Al Pacino and Charlie Heaton. Talk about a star-studded lineup!

PATRICK'S PERSONAL LIFE

So, what does the future hold for this charming couple? Only time will tell! But one thing's for sure – they'll be making headlines for their dashing good looks, exciting business ventures, and romantic escapades.

The 69-year-old journalist was pregnant with Patrick when she discovered the 78-year-old former California Governor secretly fathered a lovechild with their housekeeper Mildred 'Patty' Baena (R, pictured in 2019), which ended their 25-year marriage

As Patrick himself said on Instagram, "I love watching your dedication to your family, friends, faith, and your work. It's been a blessing to be on this journey with you and I can't wait to watch where life takes us."

Aww! We're rooting for these two lovebirds all the way!
