“you couldn’t waterboard this information out of me.”
If the last name wasn’t enough of a giveaway, Katherine is the oldest child of Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver. She has four younger siblings: Christina, Patrick, and Christopher, who are from the same parents, and Joseph, who has a different mom.

Chris has talked publicly over the years about integrating with his in-laws, and now that Katherine’s brother Patrick is making waves in the new season of The White Lotus, Chris has commented on his brother-in-law’s performance — among other things.

For context, Patrick is currently playing certified “finance douche” Saxon Ratliff in The White Lotus. And the 31-year-old actor made quite the statement in the premiere episode on Feb. 16, kicking off the long-awaited third season with a full-frontal nude scene. I won’t go into too much detail, but Patrick’s character walks fully naked into his hotel bathroom with the camera tracking him from behind. Then, in the mirror’s reflection, you can see... well, pretty much everything.

Inevitably, Patrick’s nudity was one of the most talked-about parts of the first episode (particularly within the context of the scene... IYKYK). So, while promoting his new Netflix movie, The Electric State, Chris was asked to give his honest reaction to the NSFW moment.
And while some might be a little freaked out by such an intimate topic involving your in-laws, Chris was more than happy to broach the subject, telling E! News on the red carpet: “I know where my eyes went — I’m not blood-related to him, but I was looking at that dick, bro.”

After giving a laugh, Chris continued: “He looks amazing. Obviously, he’s a physical specimen, but also he’s a really solid actor, because the character he’s playing is completely different than who he is. He created a character… I’ve been telling everybody for years, I’ve been telling him as well, I really think we’re entering a decade of Patrick.”
OK, I think I get the point he was trying to make — but did he really need to say it like that?! Anyway, Chris’s comments have made the rounds online, and it’s safe to say that most people are just as confused as me.
that’s an insane thing to say even if he’s not blood related to you 😭

His mom, Maria, said she kept her gaze fixed on her son’s face during the scene, joking: “That's all I know!” Meanwhile, dad Arnold wrote on Instagram: “I could claim to be surprised to find out he has a nude scene, but what can I say - the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.”
