Eastwood's birth occurred during a period of initial secrecy regarding his parentage, as his birth certificate listed "father declined," leaving him legally fatherless at the time. Clint Eastwood later acknowledged his paternity, following the birth of Eastwood's younger sister, Kathryn Eastwood (born February 2, 1988), who shares the same mother. He has several half-siblings from his father's other relationships, including half-brother Kyle Eastwood (born May 19, 1968) and half-sister Alison Eastwood (born May 22, 1972), as well as Kimber Eastwood (born June 24, 1964), Laurie Eastwood (born 1954), Francesca Eastwood (born August 7, 1993), and Morgan Eastwood (born December 12, 1996).

Eastwood spent his early childhood in Carmel-by-the-Sea, California , near his father's estate, before moving to Hawaii with his mother around age 10, where they lived on the Big Island for approximately four years (until around age 14). The family life was divided between these locations, with Eastwood splitting time between his parents amid the challenges of his father's high-profile career, which contributed to a desire for privacy during his formative years. He later returned to Carmel-by-the-Sea to complete high school, maintaining strong ties to the area's natural environment and community.
