It seems Arnold Schwarzenegger could be living up to his most famous one-liner – ‘I’ll be back’.
Today the Terminator star’s estranged wife was spotted wearing what looked suspiciously like her wedding ring for the first time since June of last year.
Maria, 56, was quick to remove her wedding band after her husband of 25 years Arnie admitted to fathering a secret love child with their housekeeper Mildred Baena.
Shriver filed for divorce in July but appears to be reconsidering the move due to a number of factors, including her Catholic faith and Arnold’s attempts to woo her back.

The actor – who was also sporting his wedding band again today – has apparently been showering her with gifts.
Rumours of a reconciliation were sparked last week when Schwarzenegger was seen out with his wedding band.
The former Governor, 64, was seen enjoying a cup of coffee with friends in Sun Valley, Idaho over the holidays and was sporting the gold band with a set stone on his left hand.
Arnold and Maria were said to have spent a happy Christmas together with their children Katherine, 22, Christina, 20, Patrick, 17 and Christopher, 14.

According to the source, they also attended the Los Angeles Lakers’ season opener game at the Staples Center in the afternoon.
But last night Maria, Katherine, Christina, Patrick and Christopher all went out for dinner at Katsuya in Brentwood while cheating Arnie was conspicuously absent.
The Terminator star may still have to win back his childrens’ trust.
Last year Katherine told Harper’s Bazaar magazine: ‘I’ve always been way closer to my mom.’
‘Even when I was little, I was glued to her all the time. I’m close to my dad, but they’re totally different kinds of relationships,’ she added.
Katherine, the eldest of the children, also said she fled to London after her parents separated, to escape a storm of unwanted attention.
Katherine’s brother Patrick meanwhile uses Shriver as his second name on Twitter.
Maria filed for divorce citing ‘irreconcilable differences’ and asked for joint physical and legal custody of their youngest children, Patrick and Christopher.
The couple had no prenuptial agreement, so Schwarzenegger and Shriver would be entitled to a 50/50 split of their assets.
The two are estimated to be worth $400 million.
