her husband, of course, we are talking about is arnold schwarzenegger, the newly former governor of the state of california. here is now maria shriver s brief statement, and she says quote. this is a painful and heartbreaking time. as a mother, my concern is for the children. i ask for compassion, respect and privacy as my children and i try to rebuild our lives and heal. i will have no further comment. end quote. very short statement making it clear there that she would like some time away, and would not like to be bothered and not expected to hear much more from her any time soon. and no denying that you can sense the grief in those short words from maria shriverer, and let me bring in casey wian who has been on this story since it broke overnight. a lot of people thought, casey, or just wondered what was going on when they first heard of the separation in the first place. a lot of people shocked by that, and then you throw this shock on top of that one. yeah, absolutely.
