“I’ve always had a fondness for the place, and they were just going to raze it. They said it was outdated. I believed it should be preserved for what it was,” the iconic actor once remarked.

Clint Eastwood has lived a rich life, characterized by a thriving career in film and eight children. Despite his age, he remains active in the industry and now spends his time on his ranch with his partner, who is 33 years younger.

Earning fame in the 1960s with the “Dollars Trilogy,” Eastwood has made a lasting impact as an actor and director. Not just known for his cinematic contributions, Eastwood’s personal life has been marked by various relationships, both serious and casual.

His first significant romance was with model Maggie Johnson, whom he wed in 1953. However, their thirty-year marriage ended in divorce in 1984, amid Eastwood’s involvement with other partners, including stuntwoman Roxanne Tunis.

Following his divorce, Eastwood shared a home with model Sondra Locke, but his relationships overlapped. Concurrently, he dated flight attendant Jacelyn Reeves. In the 1990s, he was with actress Frances Fisher before marrying Dina Ruiz in 1996. Despite believing Ruiz would be his monogamous partner, they divorced in 2013.

In 2014, Eastwood began a relationship with Christina Sandera, a hotel restaurant hostess 33 years his junior. Meeting at Eastwood’s Mission Ranch Hotel, where Sandera worked, they’ve been together for over nine years, earning the approval of Eastwood’s children.

Eastwood and Sandera reside on his ranch, Mission Ranch, located in Carmel. Despite initial plans to demolish it, Eastwood passionately preserved and transformed it. Now 93, he’s undertaken numerous renovations, making it a scenic retreat for travelers.

Built in the early 1850s, Mission Ranch features lush wetlands, a stunning ocean view, and the rocky Monterey coastline. The property boasts luxurious guest rooms, a restaurant, bar, workout room, and tennis court. Farm animals add to its charm.

Renovated old buildings now serve as guest rooms surrounded by well-tended flowers and trees. The restaurant offers beautiful views of the Carmel River and a sandy beach.

Despite being well-known, Eastwood prefers a private life, describing himself as “not the jolly host type.” At 93, he directed and starred in “Cry Macho” in May 2023, reflecting on his age and legacy.

Eastwood remains actively engaged with fans, filming in downtown Savannah for “Juror #2.” Fans admire his dedication and humility, appreciating his enduring legacy.
