Clint Eastwood has announced the passing of his longtime partner, Christina Sandera. She was 61. “Christina was a lovely, caring woman, and I will miss her very much,” the 94-year-old actor said in a heartfelt release on July 19. Sandera had been Eastwood’s companion for nearly a decade, with their relationship beginning in 2014. Despite Eastwood’s fame, they maintained a low-profile relationship, embodying a quiet, steadfast partnership rarely seen in Hollywood.
