    Clint Eastwood's daughter Alison has described her famous father as a "down-to-earth" dad who loves nature and having a beer

    The legendary actor-and-director has two grownup children, Alison, 50, and Kyle, 54, with his first wife Maggie Johnson, as well as six more from other relationships


    Alison has now opened up about what it was like growing up with her famous father, telling America's Closer magazine: "When we were kids, my dad would take my brother and I for dinner and people would come up to him for autographs. He's not someone who craves that."

    Actress Alison and her musician brother were raised away from Hollywood in Pebble Beach California, which she says was a wonderful place to grow up.

    She added: "It's a magical spot on the ocean, and there's lots of wildlife."

    The 'Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil' star went on to reveal Clint is a low-key guy, who loves nature and hanging out with his friends and family.

    She explained: "He's down-to-earth, enjoys nature and jazz and hanging out and having a beer."

    Alison also explains that although her parents divorced in 1984, she's still very close to her dad and the whole extended family comes together once a year to spend Thanksgiving together.

    After the split, the 92-year-old Hollywood star had several more relationships before marrying for a second time in 1996 when he wed TV journalist Dina Ruiz.

    They have daughter Morgan, 25, together, but later split and divorced in 2014.

    Clint's other children are Laurie, 68, Scott, 36, Kimber, 57, Kathryn, 34, and 28-year-old Francesca.
