Clint Eastwood’s daughter Francesca Eastwood was arrested for domestic violence over the weekend.
According to TMZ, Francesca, 31, was driving around Beverly Hills on Saturday, October 12, when she allegedly got into a physical and verbal argument with her boyfriend.
Francesca’s boyfriend reportedly called the police and was advised to drive to the Safety Zone at the Beverly Hills Police Department to meet with officers. TMZ reports that cops spoke to both parties and saw visible injuries on the boyfriend.
Beverly Hills Police confirmed to Us Weekly that officers conducted an investigation and based on statements and injuries, Francesca was arrested for felony domestic violence. Daily Mail reports she was later released from custody on $50,000 bail.

Us Weekly has reached out to Francesca’s rep for comment. She has not publicly commented on her arrest.
Francesca was last linked to actor Alexander Wraith and the pair share a 6-year-old son named Titan. Police could not confirm if Wraith, 45, is the victim of the alleged crime.
Earlier this month, Francesca exclusively opened up to Us Weekly about motherhood. The actress revealed that her son loves watching films starring his grandpa Clint.
“[Titan] loves watching his old movies, he loves the Dirty Harry movies,” she told Us. “And it’s great because a lot of them I haven’t seen, so I get to kind of watch some of these movies that I never saw because we never sat down and watched them growing up.”
Titan loves the movies so much that Francesca wouldn’t be surprised if her son ends up working behind the camera when he gets older.
“Now he wants to be a director,” she added of Titan, “and he understands what shots are and what everyone’s roles are and camera angles. To see him have this understanding at such a young age, and this curiosity that I’m definitely trying to feed into as much as possible, is really fun.”
Francesca said the most challenging part of motherhood is coparenting with Wraith and finding the time to support each other’s careers while also making sure one of them is around to take care of their son.

“We’re getting there,” Francesca said about the dynamic she shares with her former partner. “There’s always room for improvement.”
In addition to being an actress — her latest gig is a leading role in the thriller Clawfoot — Francesca previously starred on the E! reality show Mrs. Eastwood & Company with her siblings and stepmom Dina Eastwood. The show aired for one season in 2012.
