Personal life

Eastwood, who has been married twice, has five daughters and four sons by five different women: Kimberly (born 1964), with actress Roxanne Tunis; and Kyle (born in 1968), and Alison (born on May 22, 1972, with his ex-wife, the former Maggie Johnson. His two children with airline hostess Jacelyn Reeves are Scott (born March 21 1986) and Kathryn (born February 2 1988). He has a daughter Francesca Ruth (born August 7 1993) with Frances Fisher, his co-star in Unforgiven, and Morgan (born December 12 1996) with his new wife Dina Ruiz. He also has an older son, Lesly (born February 13, 1959), to 18 year old Rosina Mary Glen. Lesly was adopted after spending six months in a Salvation Army home for young unmarried mothers. Clint and his pregnant wife Maggie found and introduced themselves to him in the late summer of 1967 when he was 8. He was living in a small village in Fife, Scotland, called Kinghorn. Although they never made contact with him in any way again, Eastwood would regularly vacation at the secluded Kingswood Hotel on the road between Kinghorn and Burntisland. He was seen on many occasions, playing golf at Burntisland golf course. His autographed picture still hangs in the Penny Farthing Bar in Kirkcaldy, Scotland, which he donated personally.

"I like to joke that since my children weren't giving me any grandchildren, I had two of my own. It's a terrific feeling being a dad again at my age. I am very fortunate. I realize how unfair a thing it is that men can have children at a much older age than women." This disregards his grandchildren Clinton (born 1984) and Graylen (born 1994) by Kimber and Kyle, respectively.
