“I will miss him very much.” Clint Eastwood announces the death of his partner Christina Sandera at the age of 61.

This Thursday, July 18, Clint Eastwood shared his grief with his subscribers, announcing the death of his partner Christina Sandera at the age of 61. “Christina was a lovely and caring woman and I will miss her dearly,” he said, without specifying the cause of her death. According to several sources, however, the latter suffered a heart attack.

The 94-year-old Hollywood actor and director met Christina Sandera in 2014 at the Mission Ranch Hotel and Restaurant in California. This is one of her institutions where she worked as a hostess. For ten years, the couple kept their relationship very discreet, still making it official on red carpets. In 2015, a year after their meeting, Clint Eastwood was seen on the arm of his partner at the Oscar ceremony. THE: Hollywood Reporter reports that the couple lived happily ever after surrounded by their blended family. “Clint’s children have all met Christina and liked her,” we read in the columns of the American media.
