Just like so many other women over the last 50+ years, it seems that Eastwood’s irresistible charm got to Fisher as well. When asked about her relationship with Clint, she said she thought this one was for good, not realizing that he’s had a similar effect on many other women.
And once again, Eastwood was having babies all over the place and furthermore, he was keeping these births a secret for professional reasons. When Frances got pregnant with Francesca, the thing was kept secret for 6 months since Clint didn’t want the issue to take attention away from his Oscar race.
Leading a Double Life
When Locke found out about Eastwood's relationship with Reeves she was furious. One of the most divisive aspects of their relationship was the subject of having children. And while Locke had her tubes tied, she was livid thinking of him having children with another woman.
"My mind was still searching to get all his actions lined up," said Locke, "For at least the last four years, Clint had been living this double life, going between me and this other woman, and having children with her. Two babies had been born during the last three years of our relationship, and they weren't mine."
Relationship With Frances Fisher
It looks like Eastwood likes to have souvenirs from productions he's participated in, and that those souvenirs often include a female castmate. Yet another romantic partner of Eastwood's is actress Frances Fisher who first met him when they did the film "Pink Cadillac" together in 1989.
They had a secret, non-exclusive affair, but it became serious and public two years later. Fisher moved in with Eastwood in 1990, did another movie with him ("Unforgiven") in 1992, and they had a daughter together, Francesca, in 1993. While neither of them were married at the time, they never got married to each other.
Witnessing the Miracle of Life
Francesca is the daughter of actor and director Clint Eastwood and actress Frances Fisher. While Eastwood was already a father of six when Francesca was born, he had never been present for the birth of any of his previous children. Francesca's birth was a significant moment for him as a father.
However, his relationship with Reeves was short-lived, and they broke up two years after Francesca was born. Frances was deeply affected by the breakup and had believed that the relationship would last. Despite the circumstances, Francesca has grown up to have a close relationship with her father and siblings and has pursued a career in acting and modeling.
Breaking up With Frances
It appears that Clint Eastwood's difficulty in remaining faithful was what brought on the termination of his relationship with Frances Fisher when everything was said and done. Apparently, he was seeing Jacelyn Reeves secretly while still involved with Fisher, and the whole thing came to her knowledge. Clearly, this was going to take a turn for the worse.
In 1995, Clint and Frances put an end to their 14-year-long relationship. Fisher grieved over the relationship for two years before being able to move on. She has had no known relationships after this one. Because let's face it, nothing after Clint is going to be an upgrade, right?
