It can be difficult when a loved one passes away. You may grieve for many years, and you may never get over it.When Christina Sandra, the girlfriend of Clint Eastwood passed away at the age of 61, it was very difficult for him to handle the situation. He even announced her death in a statement that was shared through the local Caramel Pine Cone newspaper.The newspaper statement describes Sandra as being a caring and lovely individual. He spoke about how sad he was that she passed away and that he would miss her. They were never married but had been together since 2014 in a romantic relationship.You might’ve seen Eastwood in the spotlight but Christina stayed behind the scenes for the most part. Aside from the relationship she has with Eastwood, there is not much known about her.What is known is that she was working as a hostess at Eastwood’s Mission Ranch Hotel in Carmel by the Sea, California when they started their romance. They appreciated their privacy and when he was going through a significant event, she would stay by him.You could see how committed they were to each other when they were photographed in June 2014 shopping for groceries. This is around the same time that their relationship began.Through the years, she continued to support him, including being with the entire family when the premiere for ‘The Mule’ was shown.We can only imagine the difficulty that he is facing at this loss. We wish him peace during such a difficult time.
