Christina Sandera, the late partner of legendary actor Clint Eastwood, passed away unexpectedly at the age of 61, leaving behind a devastated family. Clint's daughter, Morgan Eastwood, paid tribute to Sandera on her Instagram Story, expressing gratitude for being a good partner to her father and acknowledging the loss felt by the entire family.
Sandera had been a part of Clint's life since 2014 when they met at his Mission Ranch Hotel and Restaurant in Carmel-by-the-Sea, Calif., where she worked as a hostess. The couple made their red carpet debut at the 2015 Academy Awards and shared a relatively private life, with Sandera often accompanying Clint to public events.
Clint, 94, and Sandera had a close relationship with Clint's large family, including his seven children, granddaughter, and first wife. Sandera was present at significant family events, such as the premiere of Clint's film 'The Mule' in 2018, where she joined the entire Eastwood family.
The couple's relationship was marked by love and care, as described by Clint in a statement following Sandera's passing. The actor expressed his deep sorrow at her loss, emphasizing how much he would miss her presence in his life.
Despite their private life, Clint and Sandera's bond was evident in their public appearances and the support she provided to Clint's family. Their relationship was a source of joy and companionship for Clint, who had been married to Dina Eastwood from 1996 to 2014 and shares a daughter, Morgan, with her.
Sandera's unexpected death has left a void in Clint's life and the hearts of those who knew her. Her impact on Clint's family and her role as a loving partner will be remembered and cherished by all who were fortunate enough to have known her.
