In a statement released on Thursday evening, Eastwood expressed his affection for Sandera while noting he would miss her dearly. “Christina was a lovely, caring woman, and I will miss her very much,” he said.  According to the Hollywood Reporter, a Warner Bros. spokesperson noted that more information would be released. Clint Eastwood’s official X account posted on Friday, “Saddened to report that Clint’s longtime Companion Christina has passed away at age 61…”

Sandera became widely known for her long-term relationship with Eastwood, during which time she began attending various events and red carpets with the legendary actor and director. However, despite her relationship with Eastwood, she maintained a low-key profile in the media.  Reportedly, Eastwood and Sandera first met while she was a hostess at a California restaurant.

Sandera first appeared with Eastwood on the red carpet during the 2015 Oscars, where his movie “American Sniper” was nominated for six awards.  However, the last time the two were seen together in public was in 2019.  However, a social media photo in 2022 showed the two spending time together with family.  A source familiar with the matter claimed, “Eastwood was ‘with Christina and happy.”  They added, “Clint’s kids have all met Christina and like her,” expressing that the children all found her to be “normal.”

Eastwood received an outpouring of support from users on social media who gave their thoughts and prayers for the Hollywood legend during his time of grieving.  “The only curse of old age. Seeing all your loved ones pass. Prayers,” one person wrote on X.  Another acknowledged how Sandera died at such a young age, especially compared to her nonagenarian partner.  “So sorry 61 is young,” they said.

“So sorry for Clint’s loss. He’s a great American,” another person wrote.  “Incredibly sorry to hear this, Clint. Praying for you and the family,” one user said.  “Very sorry for Mr. Eastwood’s loss and also for the family and friends of Ms. Christina,” another commented.  Another person commented, “Prayers for them both. God Bless them and their families.”

One user named Janey wrote,”So very sorry for your loss, keeping you in my prayers, I’ve loved Clint all my life, may the Lord comfort you in your journey of grief. I wish I knew the right words, but I’m just so sorry you’re sad, prayers to Christina’s loved ones.”  “Very sudden and sad news,” another person wrote. “My sincere condolences to Mr. Eastwood, Christina’s family. A journey we all take but unfortunately way too soon. Mr. Eastwood has lost so many friends, colleagues along his path. I trust everyone is holding up as best they can.”
