Christina Sandera, who died at the age of 61, was Clint Eastwood’s longtime partner.

The two met at Clint’s restaurant in Carmel-by-the-Sea in 2014 and quickly became romantically involved.

At his Mission Ranch Hotel and Restaurant in Carmel-by-the-Sea, California, Clint and Christina met for the first time.

A hostess, Sandera worked at the restaurant.

After dating for ten years, they were still together.

A statement released Thursday night by Clint Eastwood said, “Christina was a lovely, caring woman, and I will miss her very much.”

While Clint is still grieving privately, a Warner Bros. representative told the press that Clint would not be releasing any more information about Christina’s death.
