That was a close one! Arnold Schwarzenegger nearly bumps into ex Maria Shriver on a shopping outing

After a very public split in 2011 it appears that the former couple have not strayed far from one another - in fact their daily habits seem to mirror each other.

As Arnold Schwarzenegger headed to the Brentwood Country Mart in Los Angeles, on Friday, his ex Maria Shriver apparently had the same idea.

But the former lovebirds just missed each other as one left right before the other arrived.

Missed connection: Arnold Schwarzenegger nearly bumped into ex Maria Shriver at the Brentwood Country Mart in Los Angeles, on Friday

The 65-year-old former action star dropped in briefly at the popular market wearing white yachting shoes and cargo shorts.

His famously muscled torso was kept under wraps in a bright blue shirt and dark zip-up jumper as he shielded his eyes from the glaring sun in a pair of trendy surfer sunglasses.

The former Governor of California was all-smiles as he strutted from his car on the pleasantly warm day.

Looking good: Arnold appeared to enjoy the warm day

Maria, 57, was slightly more dressed up for the occasion in patterned blazer, clingy blouse, and grey skinny jeans.

The former Dateline host wore leather open toed sandals as she sipped iced tea in a to go cup.

The daughter of America's royal family completed her outfit with stringy earrings and large Jackie O sunglasses.

But contrary to their divorce proceedings the Arnold and Maria were spotted sharing a passionate kiss at an event in Beverly Hills earlier this month, according to In Touch magazine.

A source told the magazine: 'It was definitely not a peck... He kept his arm around her for most of the event and they whispered to each other as they looked around together. They looked really happy.'

And according to the same source: 'They even left together— looking very much like a family.'

Arnold can't be bothered to remember all his ex's - he has had too many. The only one he remembers is the other Maria, the house keeper, & the tasty spicy hot Tamales she used to make for him!

Don't see the big deal if they 'bumped' into each other...Ex's with children have to maintain some form of contact, its just to be hoped they can be civil is all.

Some comments about her weight - I think she is healthy personified, and those legs are gorgeous, as is her entire figure.

Shopping at the mall...WHAT else, exactly, do they need to shop for? And what is the mathematical probability that they would do it on the same day... yea right. It is pre-planned for the media orchestrated event by both of them, and DM is buying this crap? I am sorry, but I do not.

"They may be skinny jeans, but her legs are not - Frank , Detroit - Michigan - USA, 23/3/2013 16:52" What a dumb comment to make about a 57 year old woman. Maria looks great!

They have kids together. I'm sure they see each other more often than just when shopping at the Brentwood Country Mart.
