Clint Eastwood is easily one of the world’s most famous actors, known best for his roles in the western series, Rawhide (1959-1965) and films the Man with No Name Western trilogy, the Dirty Harry series and Million Dollar Baby (2004).

His children—Laurie, Kimber, Kyle, Alison, Scott, Kathryn, Francesca and Morgan— range from the ages of 71 to 28.

The 95-year-old actor has welcomed children with a total of six women, two of whom were his wives, Maggie Johnson and Dina Eastwood. Keep reading to learn more about Clint Eastwood’s children and find out how they all kept a foot in the entertainment world just like their father.

The firstborn child of the actor was Laurie Murray, who reportedly arrived without Eastwood’s knowledge. The baby, born in 1954, was put up for adoption and it was years before she met and reconnected with her father.

In 1979, Laurie tied the knot with her husband, Lowell Thomas Murray III. Murray later joined Eastwood for a red carpet appearance in 2004 while attending the Oscars and was also seen at one of her father’s movie premieres in 2018 alongside her other siblings.

Actor Scott Eastwood was the second-born son of the actor and the first for Eastwood and his then-girlfriend, Jacelyn Reeves, on March 21, 1986. Scott shared that his father would often take him to his movie sets, teaching him about hard work from an early age. He also shared that Clint preached the importance of staying healthy and active.

“My dad was always super-active and got me in the gym at a young age,” Scott shared. “He wanted me to be health-conscious. Healthy body, healthy mind; that’s what he preached to me.”

Although Scott has never been married, he has been in high-profile relationships with actresses like Nina Dobrev and Jana Kramer. He later lost his girlfriend, Jewel Brangman, in a tragic car accident in 2014.
