One day after the death of his ten-year spouse, Eastwood, ninety-four, made a statement to The Hollywood Reporter on July 19.

“I will miss Christina very much; she was a lovely, caring woman,” he remarked.

A Warner Bros. representative stated at the time that no further details would be given.

The actor’s Mission Ranch Hotel and Restaurant in Carmel-by-the-Sea, California, is where Sandera worked as a hostess when the two first met, according to THR, more than ten years ago.

Although they kept their relationship quiet, Eastwood and Sandera attended a number of red carpet events together, including their first in 2015. They began dating in 2014.
