Schwarzenegger’s Instagram story

Schwarzenegger shared a post that her mother had shared on her stories. The original post was made up of multiple photos of Shriver at the Met Gala from 2001, including photos with her parents and her cousin Caroline Kennedy. “It’s the first Monday in May and the Met Gala is underway! Things were a little more low key when I attended back in 2001, but I thought I would share some photos from that wonderful night,” she captioned the post. “Not only did I get to wear this beautiful dress, but I got to attend with both my parents, as well as my cousin, Caroline. What do you think: would we rock the red carpet in these same looks tonight?”

Her daughter appears to prefer when the event back when it was more lowkey, writing, “When the met gala was chic and classy.” Schwarzenegger’s story expired shortly afterward, and she made no further comments.
