Who Is Clint Eastwood?
Legendary actor, producer and director Clint Eastwood started as a background character in films and clawed his way up to directing his own movies. Clint had his big break when he played the role of the stranger with no name in the hit three-part trilogy the Dollars series. Today he has over 70 films, solidifying himself as one of the greatest Hollywood stars of our time.
Clint Eastwood’s Children
Clint Eastwood is a well-respected actor in his professional life, but behind the camera, he seems to be a bit of a womaniser!

Alison Eastwood had recently retired in 2014, but when asked by Clint Eastwood to play a role in his movie The Mule, she couldn’t understand why he’d ask her.

Scott Eastwood
Date of Birth: 21 March 1986

Scott clearly takes after his dad appearance-wise – there’s no mistaking them as father and son! In an interview with Esquire, Scott shared how much Clint influenced and pushed him to be the successful actor he is today “I couldn’t be more inspired by the films he makes. His movies are the kinds of movies I want to be in.”
Scott’s life hasn’t been entirely charmed though! Tragedy struck in 2014, and Scott Eastwood’s girlfriend died in a freak car accident due to a faulty airbag.
A heartbroken Scott told People how he felt in the wake of this tragedy “I just want the world to know how special Jewel was and how much she was loved, and how much I loved her.”

The Secret Daughter
Over 30 years ago, an unknown woman named Laurie Murray went to meet Clint after a private investigator pinned her father to be the legendary actor. There Clint Eastwood embraced her as his daughter with open arms and found a kid who loved to golf nearly as much as he did. Today they continue to bond as father and daughter, and Laurie has since then changed her name to Laurie Eastwood.
More Drama
Clint Eastwood wasn’t the greatest man to the women in his life – actress and director Sondra Locke was one of them. After years of living together, Clint came home less and less when he found a new woman to charm, Sondra knew she didn’t want his kids and had two abortions. Clint’s habitual womanising was too much and the two split shortly after.
There Could Be More
Clint Eastwood’s womanising days may be over, but the possibility that there are more children he fathered is still uncertain. Regardless of all the wrong he’s done, his children have all grown to be as hardworking and ambitious as he is. The apple didn’t fall far from the tree as Clint Eastwood’s children have all made their mark in Hollywood. With Clint looking to retire soon, the Eastwood legacy is secure in their hands.
