Clint Eastwood ‘saved’ his daughter by raising her outside of Los Angeles: ‘I am very thankful’
nypost.comClint Eastwood’s daughter, Alison, is “very thankful” her famous father decided to raise her away from Los Angeles.During an interview with Fox News Digital, the Eastwood Ranch Foundation Animal Welfare and Rescue facility founder explained that her father “saved” her from the hardships that she would have faced being raised in Hollywood with a famous parent.“Growing up in the industry was very interesting,” Alison began. “Although I didn’t really grow up in L.A., which I am very thankful for, I grew up in the Carmel, Pebble Beach, Monterey area, and I feel like maybe that kind of saved me from some of the pitfalls that might have happened when a child grows up with a celebrity parent in Los Angeles.”She continued, “I have been living in Los Angeles since 2000, so I’m a longtime Angeleno.
