Internet furious as Patrick Schwarzenegger and mom Maria Shriver pitch on ‘Shark Tank’ despite being ‘one of the richest families’

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Being on ‘Shark Tank’ might have been a ‘dream come true’ moment for Arnold Schwarzenegger’s son Patrick, but the show's fans are furious.

The 30-year-old, whose father's net-worth is over $3.3 billion, appeared on the Friday, May 3, Season 15 finale with his mother Maria Shriver to pitch their protein bar venture Mosh.

Maria Shriver explains what it means for son Patrick to be on 'Shark Tank'

The duo pitched for their brand Mosh, and it was the former First Lady of California, who did most of the talking.

"I'm super excited. I can tell you that it was [on] Patrick's bucket list. Ever since that show premiered, ever since he had his own lemonade stand, he's been watching it religiously. He knows every episode, he knows everything about the show," Maria began.

"And he was always like, 'One day, I want to be a judge on this show. One day I want to go on this show. This is my favorite show. I want to be on this show,'" she added.

Maria also talked about how they had to pass through a process to make it happen. After repeated attempts, they were finally able to go through ‘all of these hurdles,’ reports People.

"He was determined, and so we got on Shark Tank," she explained.

"So I was so happy, actually, for him. Well, I'm happy for Mosh, but I was so happy for Patrick because it was just such a dream come true for him."

Mosh is a protein bar packed with ‘brain-loving ingredients,’ and comes in a variety of flavors. The bars also aid in funding gender-based Alzheimer's research at the Women’s Alzheimer’s Movement at the Cleveland Clinic.

Internet slams Patrick and Maria as they go looking for investors on 'Shark Tank'

Internet was not happy with Patrick Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver's appearance on 'Shark Tank'.

One person wrote on X, "Patrick and Maria come from one of the richest families in the world combined with Hollywood. Why are they asking for $ and why is no one asking why they are asking for $? #SharkTank."

"They're taking a spot from a deserving entrepreneur who doesn't possess money & fame. Smh," a second user said.

One wrote, "I genuinely want to know why Patrick Schwarzenegger went on #SharkTank asking for $500,000 when his dad has a net worth of $450 million 🤔."

"For the advertising during prime time," wrote one.

A user slammed, "Why the hell are Maria Shriver and Patrick Schwarzenegger on Shark Tank????"

"Hey @ABCSharkTank. How can you justify having Patrick Schwarzenegger and Maria Schriver on? Nothing personal against them, but I thought the premise of the show was helping small businesses that don't have access to capital? #SharkTank," commented a user.
