Renowned actor and director Clint Eastwood has announced that his long-time partner, Christina Sandera, has died at the age of 61. Eastwood, who is 94 years old, made a statement in which he talked about how sad he was and how thankful he was for the time they spent together.
“Christina was a lovely, caring woman, and I will miss her very much,” said Eastwood. The couple had been together for almost ten years. They kept their relationship pretty quiet, but they did sometimes walk the red carpet together. Fans will always remember when they were at the 2018 openings of The Mule and The 15:17 to Paris.
They were first seen together in public as a couple at the 2015 Academy Awards, where Eastwood’s movie American Sniper was nominated for six awards. Reports say that Eastwood and Sandera started dating in June 2014.
The news has been interested in Eastwood’s personal life for a long time. From 1953 to 1984, he was married to Maggie Johnson. From 1996 to 2014, he was married to Dina Eastwood. Following his split from Dina, Eastwood’s friendship with Sandera became more well known.
Details about Sandera’s death are still being kept secret. A Warner Bros. spokesperson said that no more information will be shared. Eastwood is apparently working on his next movie, Juror No. 2, while he deals with the death of his partner. This movie is thought to be his last before he retires.
Fans and people who care about Eastwood and Sandera are sending their thoughts to their families during this sad time.
