Scott Eastwood might seem to have the perfect life from the outside but he has revealed a tragic secret about the loss of his girlfriend. The actor, who is the son of Hollywood legend Clint Eastwood, spoke in an interview with GQ Australia about how the passing has changed him forever. He said ‘I’ve lost friends before; I’ve lost some great friends. But, I had never lost someone I had been really intimate with, you know, like in that way, in a relationship.’
He went on to reveal some shocking details about the crash which killed her. He added the f***ed up thing is, it was a fender bender, and there was a recall on airbags. Her airbag exploded. It shot a projectile through her body. It split her spine and, um, I’ve never told anybody that…I still never called her father. I still haven’t found the right words.’
The actor, who can be currently seen on screen in the new Suicide Squad movie, spoke of how relationships can be complicated when you’re young as you often don’t know if it really is love or just lust. The actor has starred alongside his father in several films including Flags of Our Fathers and Invictus.
