Clint Eastwood's Son Scott Shares How Family Is Doing After Death of Christina Sandera

​​​​​​​View Date:2024-12-23 06:11:03

The Eastwood family is getting through a tough time.

Less than a month after Clint Eastwood's longtime partner Christina Sandera died at the age of 61, his son Scott Eastwood is giving an update on how the family is processing the tragedy.

Scott exclusively told E! News, "Everyone is great."

And as for how his father Clint is holding up, Scott—who can be seen on the big screen Aug. 30 in 1992—added, "He is doing OK. Thank you for asking." (For more from Scott, tune into E! News on Aug. 26 at 11 p.m.)

Clint's girlfriend of 10 years, Christina died on July 18 of a heart attack, the Monterey County Health Department confirmed to The Post.

According to the outlet, her death certificate listed her immediate cause as cardiac arrhythmia while atherosclerotic coronary artery disease—which is generally caused by the buildup of plaque in the heart's arteries—was included as a contributing factor.

Following Christina's passing, Clint paid tribute to his partner with a loving message.

"Christina was a lovely, caring woman," Clint said in a statement July 17, per The Hollywood Reporter. "I will miss her very much." 

Clint and Christina first met when she was working as a hostess at his Mission Ranch Hotel and Restaurant in California. They began dating in 2014, one year after Clint had filed for divorce from ex Dina Eastwood—with whom he shares daughter Morgan Eastwood, 27—after 17 years of marriage. 

Despite his storied career in Hollywood, the 94-year-old—who is also dad to Laurie Murray, 70, Kimber Lynn Eastwood, 60, Kyle Eastwood, 56, Alison Eastwood, 52, Kathryn Eastwood, 36, and Francesca Eastwood, 30, from previous relationships—has remained quiet when it comes to his personal life.

And he has a very good reason for that decision.

"There are other people that are involved there and they're vulnerable people," the Oscar winner previously told CBS News. "I can protect myself, but they can't."
