Schwarzenegger explained that Miley spent time with his family during the holidays in Sun Valley, Idaho.
"I found out she was a fantastic person," he said. "We had little kids in the house, my nephew's little kids. She went out every day to buy gifts for them. She played with them, played with their phone and showed them things. But really, sincerely, like sometimes two hours at a time, would go out in the snow with them."
Seeing this side of her reassured Schwarzenegger, but he also trusted his son's judgment.
