Fans of Clint Eastwood knows that he has quite a few children, and just as many disgruntled baby mamas.But fortunately for Eastwood, all of his children are now grown with careers of their own. That’s good news for the actor because he hasn’t always had the closest relationship with his kids.
Though his exes have attempted to seek child support, rumors suggest that Clint hasn’t paid a penny for most of his children’s upbringing. So how have they made a way for themselves, and did any decide to pursue acting like their dad?
How Mnay Kids Does Clint Eastwood Have?
Clint Eastwood has at least eight confirmed children, but because he’s kept mum about the total tally, it’s unclear whether there may be more. Of those eight, however, at least a few have an interest in the family business. Even if their dad never had the greatest interest in being part of their lives, some Eastwood kids followed a similar path as him when they became adults.
Do Any Of Clint Eastwood’s Kids Act?
The short answer is that yes, most of Clint Eastwood’s kids act! But the ones that don’t act still work in the industry, so it must be in their blood. Of course, little information exists about Clint’s reported first child, who was put up for adoption by her unnamed mother, but Laurie Murray reportedly became a teacher.
The rest of Clint’s kids are much closer to Hollywood. Kimber Eastwood, the eldest daughter of Clint and a stuntwoman named Roxanne Tunis, is a makeup artist/department head, so an essential Hollywood career.
And among many interesting facts about Clint Eastwood’s son Scott is the tidbit that he’s an actor. Scott, sometimes credited as Scott Reeves (his mother’s last name), has more than 30 acting credits to his name. His sister Kathryn is an actress as well but has far fewer credits than her brother.
Clint’s next set of kids, whose mom is Maggie Johnson, are also in Hollywood. Kyle Eastwood has multiple credits as a composer for films and documentaries. His younger sister Alison is an actress with almost as many credits as their brother Scott.
Then came Francesca, who began acting at the tender age of two, following in her actress mom’s footsteps. And the last publicly acknowledged Eastwood kid is Morgan, also the youngest of the clan. While she has a few acting credits, it’s not her full-time career, suggests IMDb.
Though some of Clint Eastwood’s kids grew up with their dad’s influence in their life, others were apparently denied by the actor and made their own way. Regardless, it’s clear that the actor’s genes are strong!
