Eastwood met Margaret or Maggie Johnson on a blind date. Just six months after their first brief encounter, Jonhson and Eastwood were married and the pair went on to have two children.

However it was during their affair that Eastwood strayed, getting a woman from Seattle pregnant, and she subsequently put the child up for adoption.Then again in 1964, it was Eastwood's affair with Tunis that forced the couple to briefly separate before officially divorcing in 1984.Tunis was a regular stuntwoman on American Western series Rawhide.

Quickly hitting it off with Eastwood, the pair’s affair lasted long into the 1970s and resulted in Eastwood’s first legal child, Kimber Eastwood.The torrid affair and birth of Kimber was largely kept hidden from the public up until 1989, but according to reports, everyone on the set of Rawhide knew of Tunis and Eastwood, one article claiming that Jonhson always knew of her existence.Despite an air of mystery remaining concerning the reports about Jonhson and Tunis, an article written back in 1989 shared that the two women even met on the set of Breezy back in 1972."We don't believe in togetherness,” Eastwood told reporter Tim Chadwick in an interview back in 1971, concerning him and Jonhson’s marriage.One-time Rawhide guest star, actress Barbara Eden, commented that the pair “conducted a somewhat open marriage", almost justifying Eastwood’s ferocious sexual appetite with women.With details of the relationship between Tunis, Eastwood and Johnson based on rumour, it is difficult to know exactly how much Johnson put up with within her marriage.Biographer Marc Eliot wrote that Eastwood's wife Johnson may not have known about the baby at the time.
