Long lost child, smart child, favorite child – name it, Clint Eastwood’s children definitely have it. The famous Hollywood actor and director have a reputation for loving a lot of women, which is evident to the eight kids born out of different unbelievable circumstances.

Who is Clint Eastwood?

You might be wondering what’s so great about this Hollywood star that women seem to go crazy for. For starters, he is the man who’s an acclaimed Hollywood figure with a handful of his prominent Clint Eastwood quotes. The man is one of Hollywood’s biggest names and a cultural icon of masculinity. Few of Clint Eastwood facts is that he’s an actor, director, producer, and former politician. The famous actor has over 50 films to his name, including Bird (1988), Unforgiven (1992), Mystic River (2003), Million Dollar Baby (2004), and American Sniper (2014). 

Clint Eastwood achieved insurmountable success in the Western TV series Rawhide. Moreover, his fame increased and spilled into the big international screen when he took on the role as the “Man with No Name” in Dollars Trilogy of Italian filmmaker Sergio Leone during the mid-1960s and played as an antihero cop named Harry Callahan in the five Dirty Harry films from 1970s to 1980s. 

Moreover, his contributions have prompted and shaped the American film industry. Clint bagged dozens of awards, including four Academy Award wins from his 11 nominations and four Golden Globes from his 13 nominations. The actor and producer also achieved the rare scene of being nominated twice (Best Actor and Best Director) for the same movie on Million Dollar Baby and Unforgiven. Furthermore, his accolades include Commander of the Ordre des Arts et des Lettres and Legion of Honour medal, two of France’s top honors.

The man of Hollywood worked hard on perfecting his craft, but the same can be said on his love life as he has been known to have an affair with beautiful women one after the other. Not to mention, Clint Eastwood’s net worth is $375 million, which definitely can raise a lot of families.

Clint Eastwood’s Love Affairs

Do you know that Clint Eastwood’s former flame is as long as his filmography? That’s right, the Hollywood icon isn’t known as a womanizer for nothing. In fact, his love affairs have their own Wikipedia page! Just like how travelers have itchy feet, Clint has an itchy heart as he’s restless when it comes to his love life. 

What’s more baffling is that he’s only been married twice to Maggie Johnson (1953-1984) and Dina Ruiz (1996-2014). Between and over those marriages, the multi-awarded actor and producer had dozens of short-term affairs and long-term romances that reporters can’t keep track of. An actress, a competitive swimmer, a model, a singer, a columnist, an animal rights activist, and a mayor are only some of the professions of his past women. And with a wild flaming fling, it’s unlikely that Clint had a bundle of children.

If you’re wondering who Clint Eastwood’s kids are, you can read about them below.

Clint Eastwood’s Children

Laurie Eastwood (1953)

She’s the long-lost child of Clint Eastwood and his oldest daughter too. 

The actor didn’t find out about her decades later, which was a surprise to his family. Laurie was the love child of his father and an unknown woman. She was conceived when Clint was still dating his future first wife, Maggie Johnson. The long-lost child was given up for adoption by her mother, and she was the one who tracked down her family 30 years later.

Kimber Eastwood (1964)

Roxanne Tunis, who was a stuntwoman and a dancer, was Kimber Eastwood‘s mother. Clint and Roxanne had an affair when he was still married to Maggie. Although she was a love child from another woman, Eastwood regarded her as the first child. And wasn’t revealed to the public until 1989. She didn’t become an actress but a make-up artist and film producer.

Kyle Eastwood (1968)

He’s the first child of Clint to his first wife, Maggie. Kyle turned his parents to grandparents in 1994 when he had his first child named Graylen Spencer Eastwood. Today, he has pursued jazz bass, and in 2017, he released his recent studio album In Transit.

Alison Eastwood (1972)

Tall, blonde, and beautiful, Alison Eastwood built a career as a model and an actress. She was the second child of Clint and Maggie. Her projects include dozens of films such as Black and WhiteThe Mule, and I’ll Be Seeing You.

Scott Eastwood (1986)

Divorce and a new partner didn’t stop Clint Eastwood from yet another affair with a Hawaiian-based stewardess named Jacelyn Reeves. The divorce with Maggie Johnson was only finalized when he had a common-law wife, Sondra Locke. In the middle of all of that, Clint impregnated Reeves with two children. Scott Eastwood was an actor and model known for his Texas Chainsaw film Suicide Squad and Pacific Rim: Uprising.

Kathryn Eastwood (1988)

Kathryn Eastwood is the other child of Jacelyn Reeves to Clint and full sister of Scott Eastwood. On their birth certificates, it was revealed that both have a “father declined” note on their documents which were not surprising as they kept the children a secret until the 2000s.

Francesca Eastwood (1993)

Francesca Eastwood‘s parents were Frances Fisher and Clint Eastwood. Before they started the film Unforgiven as co-stars, the two began a relationship resulting in the birth of Francesca Eastwood. Frances and Francesca starred in Mrs. Eastwood & Company with the second wife of Clint, Dina Ruiz, and Francesca’s half-sister Morgan. She’s sometimes dubbed as a favorite child because among her siblings, only during her birth was the famous actor present.

Morgan Eastwood (1996)

Morgan Eastwood was the youngest and last known child of Clint Eastwood. His mom was the Hollywood icon’s second wife, Dina, and she appeared in Mrs. Eastwood & Company, which was when her parents were still together. In 2014, Dina and Clint divorced, with the former having full custody of their child.

Big Eastwood Family

Having siblings from another mother might be dysfunctional for most people, but not for the Eastwood family. Clint’s situation isn’t fitting for a marriage life – having affairs inside an affair or getting in a relationship when he already has a mistress and a wife. The best thing that Clint Eastwood’s children got from him is the opportunities that come with knowing that they’re related to him. All’s well that ends well.
