It seems the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree, and in this case, the apple is throwing some serious punches! Francesca Eastwood, the 31-year-old daughter of legendary tough-guy Clint Eastwood and actress Frances Fisher, has reportedly been arrested for felony domestic violence. Yes, you heard that right—she’s mixing a little bit of drama with her Hollywood pedigree!
So, what went down? Picture this: Francesca and her boyfriend (who we’ll refer to as Mr. Unlucky-in-Love for the sake of anonymity) were cruising around Beverly Hills on Saturday night, presumably looking for the perfect spot to enjoy some overpriced avocado toast. But instead of finding a quaint café, they found themselves in a brawl worthy of a low-budget action flick.
TMZ, our favorite celebrity gossip mag that never misses a beat, reports that Mr. Unlucky-in-Love called the cops after things escalated from “petty squabble” to “let’s not keep this between us.” The authorities, probably rolling their eyes at yet another Beverly Hills meltdown, instructed him to drive to the Beverly Hills Police Department’s Safety Zone. Because nothing screams “I’m having a great time” like meeting the police at a designated area!
Once they arrived, the cops did what they do best: they asked questions and noted visible injuries on Mr. Unlucky-in-Love. Spoiler alert: Francesca ended up being arrested faster than you can say, “Do you feel lucky, punk?” She was promptly booked and probably had time to reflect on her life choices—like becoming Clint Eastwood’s daughter!
After posting a whopping $50,000 bail (because what’s a little cash when you’re a Hollywood princess?), Francesca was released from custody. Meanwhile, Mr. Unlucky-in-Love decided he was fine and dandy and refused medical aid. Probably thought he could tough it out.
As for Francesca’s current beau? Well, The Daily Beast swooped in to share that she’s been dating trainer Alexander Wraith. They welcomed a little bundle of joy in 2018, but it looks like the only bundles of joy being exchanged now are those in the courtroom.
Let’s hope Francesca takes a page from her dad’s movie playbook and finds a less dramatic way to navigate her love life. Because, honestly, Hollywood doesn’t need any more domestic dramas—we’ve got enough of those on the big screen!
