Francesca Eastwood, the daughter of director Clint Eastwood, was arrested for felony domestic violence in Beverly Hills on Saturday.

A spokesman for the Beverly Hills Police Department told the New York Post, “On Saturday, October 12, 2024, at approximately 10.42pm, the Beverly Hills Police Department responded to the ‘Safety Zone’ at 464 North Rexford Drive (BHPD HQ) for a radio call of a possible domestic violence incident.”

“Officers conducted an investigation, and based on statements and injuries, Francesca Ruth Fisher Eastwood of Los Angeles was arrested for a felony, PC 273.5 – domestic violence, and was booked at BHPD Jail,” the spokesman added.

The New York Post reached out to representatives for Francesca and Clint Eastwood.

TMZ was first to break the story.

According to the outlet, Francesca had a verbal argument with her boyfriend while driving around Beverly Hills. The fight allegedly escalated and became physical.

At that point, Francesca’s boyfriend reportedly called police, who advised him to drive to what’s known as the “Safety Zone” outside of the Beverly Hills Police Department so he could speak with law enforcement officers.

The couple arrived at the Safety Zone, and after taking statements from both parties and assessing the alleged injuries — which, according to TMZ, were sustained by Francesca’s significant other — Beverly Hills PD arrested Francesca for domestic violence.

Her boyfriend refused medical aid, and Francesca was released from police custody after posting $US50,000 bail, TMZ reported.

Law enforcement did not reveal the identity of the alleged victim in accordance with California law.

Francesca is in a relationship with actor Alexander Wraith, though it is not clear whether he was in any way involved in the incident. The couple share a six-year-old son, Titan.

Wraith and Francesca made their romance red carpet official in 2018. The actress was pregnant with their child at the time.

Wraith has a son from a previous relationship and had an eight-year-long marriage before dating Francesca.

He filed for divorce from his wife, Lili Gaildraud, in June 2018.

The actor was reportedly seeing Francesca while still married to Gaildraud.

However, he told The Blast that he and Gaildraud had been separated for three years before their divorce and that “everyone is moving on and happy.”

Before dating Wraith, Eastwood was briefly married to Jordan Feldstein, the brother of actor Jonah Hill and the manager of the band Maroon 5. The pair married on November 17, 2013, but Francesca filed for an annulment only eight days later.

Feldstein died in 2017 at the age of 40. His death was reportedly caused by blood clots that originated in his legs, pneumonia and obesity.

The daughter of Clint Eastwood and Titanic actress Frances Fisher, Francesca appeared on her family’s E! reality series Mrs. Eastwood & Company and appeared in her father’s 2014 film adaptation of the Broadway musical, Jersey Boys. The actress has also starred in movies such as M.F.A. and Clawfoot and made guest appearances on TV shows including Fargo and Twin Peaks: The Return.
