Hollywood actor and politician, Arnold Schwarzenegger has apologized for his past behavior towards women saying he has stepped over the line sometimes.
Recall Arnold had a series of accusations of groping several women leveled against him just days before he won the recall election to become the governor of California in 2003. He later apologized for ‘misbehaving with women.’
Now, one year after the breakout of the #MeToo movement, the actor is apologizing again. “Looking back, I stepped over the line several times, and I was the first one to say sorry. I feel bad about it, and I apologize,” the now 71-year old admitted in an interview published in Men’s Health magazine.
When discussing his treatment of women before #MeToo, the Terminator star admitted he has regrets. “When I became governor, I wanted to make sure that no one, including me, ever makes this mistake.
“That’s why we took sexual harassment courses, to have a clear understanding, from a legal point of view and also from a regular-behavior point of view, of what is accepted and what is not.”
Schwarzenegger, who left the governor’s office in 2011, was not criminally charged in connection with any of the allegations about him.
