They Kept Their Life Together Largely Out of Sight

Even though Eastwood was one of the premier actors and directors in Hollywood, it seems as if he and Christina preferred to remain out of the limelight as much as possible during what was believed to be a 10-year relationship.

People reported that they "met when she was working as a hostess at his property, the Mission Ranch Hotel in Carmel-by-the-Sea, California, on the Monterey peninsula where Eastwood has lived for decades."

Christina was said not to have a social media footprint.

They did sometimes attend occasions connected to Eastwood's movies such as awards ceremonies. They were at the 2015 Academy Awards because a film that Eastwood directed, American Sniper, raked in six nominations. The romantic twosome also appeared at the 2017 Cannes Film Festival together.
