Clint Eastwood - He mourns his partner Christina Sander
Ten years they were a couple. Now, Clint Eastwood's (94) long-time partner, Christina Sandera, surprisingly passed away at the age of 61. Eastwood confirmed this in a statement, which can be found at "The Hollywood Reporter".
Over 30 years Age Difference
"Christina was a loving and caring woman and I will miss her dearly," Eastwood's statement reads. No further details have been released about the circumstances surrounding the death of the 61-year-old hostess. A representative from Warner Bros. informed "The Hollywood Reporter" that no further information would be given.
Clint Eastwood and Christina Sandera met in 2014 at his Mission Ranch Hotel in California. She worked there as a hostess in the restaurant. Sandera was 50 years old, Eastwood was already in his mid-80s. Despite the significant age difference of over 30 years, they became a couple.
They were not married, but a couple for ten years
Their relationship, which has lasted until now, the two kept largely out of the public eye. In 2015, Eastwood appeared with his partner at the 87th Academy Awards. Eastwood's film "American Sniper," which he directed, was nominated several times that year. There followed a few more joint Red Carpet appearances. They were not married.
Eastwood was married before the relationship with Christina Sandera. From 1953 to 1984, he was married to Maggie Johnson (93). His second marriage to Dina Eastwood (59) lasted from 1996 to 2014. In total, Clint Eastwood has eight children from various relationships: besides Scott Eastwood (38) and sister Kathryn (36), he is the father of Laurie (70), Kimber (59), Kyle (56), Alison (52), Francesca (30), and Morgan (27).
Clint Eastwood's statement about Christina Sander's passing was published on The Hollywood Reporter. Ms. Sander, who was 30 years younger than Eastwood, was Eastwood's long-time partner who tragically passed away at the age of 61. During their ten-year relationship, they kept their relationship largely private, attending red carpet events occasionally, but never officially married.
