“He’s good. He’s doing good,” Scott said, acknowledging that his father is a survivor and a trouper. This resilience is not new to those who know Clint Eastwood, as he was born during the Great Depression and grew up during World War II, witnessing significant struggles in his life.
This perseverance is one of the biggest life lessons Scott has learned from his father. “It’s in our blood,” Scott explained. “You don’t complain. You don’t whine. You just do.” This mindset is part of what has inspired Scott to follow in his father’s footsteps in the film industry.
Clint Eastwood and Christina Sandera were together for over a decade, meeting at the Mission Ranch Hotel where she worked as a hostess. The couple kept their romance low-key but made several public appearances together, including the 2015 Oscars where Clint’s film American Sniper was nominated for six awards.
Christina Sandera passed away in July 2024 due to cardiac arrhythmia and atherosclerotic coronary artery disease. Clint Eastwood paid tribute to his late girlfriend, stating that she was a lovely and caring woman whom he would miss dearly.
