It has been reported that Clint Eastwood’s longtime partner, Christina Sandera, has died at the age of 61. “Christina was a lovely, caring woman, and I will miss her very much,” Eastwood said in a statement, confirming the sad news. A cause of death was not immediately disclosed.
Sandera and Eastwood maintained a relatively private relationship over the past decade, only occasionally appearing together at high-profile events like the premieres of 2018’s The Mule and The 15:17 to Paris. They made their red carpet debut at the 2015 Academy Awards, where American Sniper, directed by Eastwood, received six nominations.
