Clint Eastwood is known for his epic performances on-screen, but he has also seemingly impressed the ladies away from his day job over the years.
The 92-year-old actor and director has been a mainstay in Hollywood for more than five decades after his hit performance in The Good, the Bad and the Ugly.
But away from the cameras, he had a number of admirers and high profile relationships. After splitting from second wife Dina Eastwood in 2013, the star was most recently linked to Christina Sandera.
Here, we take a look at his prolific dating life.
Maggie Johnson
When he entered the glitz and glamour of Hollywood in the 1950s, Clint was newly married to his first wife Maggie Johnson.

They tied the knot in 1953, just months before his daughter Laurie Murray – whom he fathered with another woman – was born and put up for adoption without his knowledge.
While their dalliance eventually ended in divorce, the pairing turned out to be his longest, as the pair chalked up 31 years together. However, within that time, it’s said that the Cry Macho star was involved in a few affairs.
Looking back at their time though, Clint labelled their first year of marriage “terrible” as he still wanted to “do as [he] pleased”.
One extramarital affair resulted in the birth of his second child, Kimber Lynn who was born in 1964.
Despite his antics, Clint and Maggie welcomed son Kyle in 1968 and daughter Alison in 1972.
Since Clint and Maggie’s split in 1979 and eventual divorce in 1984, he has had a number high-profile links. The divorce however is said to have set Clint back $25million in a settlement and the pair have remained pals through the years.
Roxanne Tunnis
The first lady with whom Clint is said to have been unfaithful to Maggie with was Roxanne Tunnis. Clint and stuntwoman Roxanne met on the set of Rawhide in 1959 and their fling is said to have lasted 14 years.
She is the mother of Clint’s second child – with the actor later describing how the pregnancy made him feel like he had the “wind knocked out” of him.

Another woman whom Clint met during his first marriage was Sondra Locke. The pair met in 1972 when she was auditioning for his film Breezy.
Like Clint, Sondra was also married at the time. While she failed to be cast for the film, she later featured in his 1975 production, The Outlaw Josey Wales. It’s then that they were said to begin their affair.
In her autobiography titled The Good, the Bad, and the Very Ugly: A Hollywood Journey, she claimed Clint had told her “there was no real relationship left” in his first marriage.
Following the breakdown of his marriage, Sondra and Clint spent a decade together, but came to a bitter end which saw her file a palimony lawsuit against him in which she alleged she had suffered humiliation, mental anguish … severe emotional and physical distress and … mental and physical harm” during their relationship.
Jacelyn Reeves
Again meeting his next partner while still in a relationship, Clint got close to flight attendant Jacelyn Reeves.
There is little knowledge of their relationship other than they welcomed two children together; son Scott in 1986, and daughter Kathryn two years later.
Frances Fisher
Another he met while with Sondra was Frances Fisher – who admitted she didn’t know of their relationship until their split made the news in 1989.
However, they continued dating and even appeared on a number of red carpet events together. By 1993, they had welcomed daughter Francesca Ruth together but less than a year later they faced a relationship breakdown.
By 1995 they had fully separated, but like Maggie previously, the pair remained on good terms. In 2004, Frances admitted to SFGate : “I believe when you have loved someone, if you don’t destroy it with pettiness, then the love is always there.”

Clint met his second wife Dina Eastwood when she interviewed him in 1992. She admitted that they flirted during the chat as an associate joked they would marry one day.
That jibe came true by 1996 as the pair wed in Las Vegas. Dina later went on record to call the ceremony her “dream wedding”.
By December of the same year the pair welcomed daughter Morgan to the world. The couple even shared a unique insight into their lives in 2012 when they took part in reality show Mrs Eastwood and Company.
However, Clint is said to have been furious at the filming which sources told PEOPLE went “against everything he stands for”.
Months later the marriage was falling apart and in September of the following year Dina filed for a legal separation.
Dina went on to marry pal Scott Fisher in 2016.
Erica Tomlinson-Fisher
In a turn of events, Erica Tomlinson-Fisher – the ex wife of Dina’s next husband reached out to Clint in 2013 with concerns over Scott and Dina’s companionship.
By March, Erica and Clint had become an item, but it’s not clear how or when their pairing came to an end.

Clint made his red carpet debut with another new flame, Christina Sandera, in 2015 at the Oscars. In 2018, she is said to have joined his large family at the premiere for his film The Mule, but the duo have tried to keep their private life out of the public eye.
It’s reported that they live together in Carmel.
