Clint Eastwood’s beloved partner
Oscar-winning actor Clint Eastwood is mourning the loss of his long-time girlfriend Christina Sandera.
Her death, confirmed on July 19, was attributed to a heart attack, with the Monterey County Health Department listing cardiac arrhythmia, an abnormal heart rhythm, and atherosclerotic coronary artery disease as contributing factors. At the time of her passing, Sandera was 61.
She and Eastwood, the iconic Dirty Harry actor, were a couple for the past decade.
Eastwood paid his tributes to his late partner in a heartfelt statement shared through the local Carmel Pine Cone newspaper. “Christina was a lovely, caring woman, and I will miss her very much,” he wrote.
Their relationship started shortly after Eastwood’s nearly 20-year marriage to his second wife, Dina, ended. The couple often kept their romance private.
They reportedly met when Sanders was a hostess at his Mission Ranch Hotel and Restaurant in Carmel-by-the-Sea, California, which later became their sanctuary.
Eastwood’s daughter, Morgan Eastwood, also paid tribute to Sandera after her passing. “A devastating loss for our whole family. Thank you Christina for being a good partner to my Dad (red heart emoji) you will be missed.”
Sandera stood by Eastwood’s side during significant events, particularly those related to his films. Their first public appearance together was at the 2015 Oscars when Eastwood’s movie American Sniper received several nominations, including Best Picture.
She remained a steadfast supporter of her partner throughout their relationship. In 2017, they attended the Cannes Film Festival together, highlighting their close bond. The following year, she accompanied Eastwood and his entire family to the premiere of his film The Mule, underscoring her significant presence in both his personal and professional life.
Despite being in a relationship with an icon, Sandera preferred to stay out of the limelight.
Our thoughts and prayers go to Clint Eastwood and his family during this difficult time. May she rest in peace.
