Clint Eastwood's Oscar Date Was New Girlfriend Christina Sandera

Clint Eastwood turned heads when he brought his girlfriend, Christina Sandera, as his Oscar date on Sunday.

It was first revealed in June that the 84-year-old “American Sniper” director was dating Sandera, who was a hostess at his restaurant, Mission Ranch Hotel in Carmel, California.

"Clint's kids have all met Christina and like [her]," an unnamed source told Us Weekly.

The Academy Awards is the first public appearance the couple have made together.

Eastwood’s divorce from Dina Eastwood was finalized in December after a lengthy battle over custody and spousal support. Dina Eastwood filed for divorce in October 2013.

“American Sniper” was nominated for six Oscars, and won for Best Sound Editing.

Twitter users commented about the appearance.

Wait ✋ that is Clint Eastwood's girlfriend??? Not daughter.

The only good thing about the Oscars is seeing Clint Eastwood and realizing he is 84 years old (with a new girlfriend)
