Clint Eastwood might be a tough guy on screen, but he's a "real softie" to his children in real life.

Clint, 92, glowed with joy as he spent time with his grandson in a photo shared by his daughter.

The actor enjoys life to the fullest as he is a doting grandfather in addition to dating his girlfriend, who was working as a hostess when they met.
92-year-old Clint Eastwood is a doting grandfather to his grandchildren. During a previous interview, the star's children spoke about him as an ordinary man instead of a famous movie actor.
Alison Eastwood, the actor's daughter, revealed how people would ask her what it was like growing up with the actor as her father. Some people might recognize him from his roles in "The Man With No Name" and "Dirty Harry," but Alison confessed that the star wasn't any different from other fathers.

Alison jokingly explained, "He's way laid-back. Probably too laid-back. Don't tell him, though!" She also described him as a "real softie" and despite playing tough characters, he was "kind of a hippie."
Eastwood's two other children, Scott and Francesca, followed in his footsteps by becoming actors. In 2016, Francesca played her first lead role in "Outlaws and Angels." Speaking about her father, she described him as "a tough guy," but "also a dad." She added, "He's the real deal, a real person."
As a teenager, Alison thought her parents were "dorky," but as she and her brother, Kyle, matured, they realized how much they meant to them. As an adult, she and her father were good friends who laughed a lot with so much to share.
Eastwood was so real that he also made sure to be attentive to his grandchildren, appearing to enjoy being with them whenever he had the chance.
How Does Clint Spend Time with His Grandchildren?
On November 27, 2022, Francesca shared an Instagram image of Eastwood with his little grandson. They were sitting together at a table with a fourth person, possibly her husband Stacy Poitras, and the actor and his grandchild appeared to be busy with some activity.
The look on Eastwood's face showed how much joy it was spending time with the little boy. In June 2021, Francesca shared two Instagram images of the star posing with one of his other grandchildren, Titan, captioning the post:
"Best dad. Best grandfather."
The actor looked delighted as he held up his grandchild, who looked directly at him in the first photo, and at the camera in the second. Alison once noted how she and her father had a lot of fun with his grandchildren and that he enjoyed it now that he'd "settled down a bit."
The actor's daughter revealed he worked a lot throughout her childhood, so she didn't see much of him. However, by 2019, he only did one film a year and spent much of his time with them, adding:
"We all have dinner, we all have fun, it’s a lot of laughter, there’s a lot of kidding and joking.”
Alison also shared how her father was a great father and grandfather. He adored spending time with Francesca's baby, Titan, who Alison loves and thinks is cute. She said the little boy loved playing with cats and dogs and was a "cool kid."
After the star's [Clint Eastwood] second wife [Dina Eastwood] moved out of their marital home, [Christina] Sandera moved in a few years later.
How is His Personal Life Now?
Despite being present for his family and having dinners with them, Eastwood also makes time for a more personal life. In 2014, the actor met the woman he would spend the rest of his life with. Christina Sandera, 56, won his heart over and that of his eight children.
The star was said to be happier than he'd ever been since. Sandera was someone outside of the acting industry who fell in love at first sight with the actor before their romance began.

The actor-director met Sandera at the Mission Ranch Hotel, one of his many properties. She was working as a hostess, and they fell in love quickly, but Eastwood remained at the family's Carmel home, where he used to stay with his ex-wife, Dina.
After the star's second wife moved out of their marital home, Sandera moved in a few years later. According to reports, the couple might be engaged, but the press wouldn't know because the actor is very private.
