Clint’s Complex Family Tree
As one of Hollywood’s most iconic stars, Clint built his legacy through memorable roles and a career as an actor, director, and producer. He first gained fame in the 1960s for portraying “The Man with No Name,” becoming a cultural symbol of rugged masculinity.

He is also an acclaimed filmmaker with two Academy Awards for directing “Unforgiven” and “Million Dollar Baby.” Despite his status in Hollywood, Clint kept his personal life, particularly his family dynamics, largely out of the public eye.

The star has been married twice. His first marriage to Maggie Johnson in 1953 lasted almost 30 years until they divorced in 1984. The couple welcomed two children, Kyle and Alison, even though their relationship was often tested due to Clint’s demanding career and other issues.

After his first marriage ended, the actor married TV anchor Dina Ruiz in 1996, but they separated in 2014. Aside from his marriages, the Hollywood star had other children with different partners, and for many years, it was believed he had only seven children.
His eldest, Kimber Eastwood, was born in 1964 from his relationship with Roxanne Tunis. Kimber has worked as a makeup artist in the entertainment industry, including on “Wheel of Fortune” since 2005, preferring to stay out of the limelight, unlike her siblings.

Kyle Eastwood, born in 1968, became a jazz musician and composer, scoring for several of his father’s films like “Mystic River” and “Gran Torino.” He has earned respect in the music industry, performing globally and showcasing his talent beyond his father’s influence.
“I think I realized I loved music more than acting. It’s always been my passion,” Kyle shared in a 2021 interview.

Scott Eastwood, arguably the most recognizable of Clint’s children, was born in 1986 to Jacelyn Reeves, a former flight attendant. He spent his early years with his mother in Hawaii and had limited interaction with Clint.
However, Scott and Clint reconnected when Scott moved to California during high school, and they developed a closer relationship. He has since built a successful acting career, appearing in well-known films such as “The Longest Ride,” “Fury,” and “Suicide Squad.”
