Clint Eastwood feels he is an older dad

LONDON - Oscar-winning actor-director Clint Eastwood admits he feels “ridiculous” when he watches his children playing sports because he is so much older than other dads.
The 80-year-old, who has seven children with five women, including 14-year-old Morgan with current wife Dina Ruiz - thinks he is now a better dad than he used to be, but sometimes feels uncomfortable that he is much older than other parents.
“When I was younger, I was desperate to find the brass ring. So I worked constantly and I wasn’t as good a father as I am now, because now my daughter takes precedence,” contactmusic.com quoted him as saying.
“I go to the school activities, all the softball games. I look kind of ridiculous out there. Almost everybody’s got a younger father than me. But it’s fun. I think you appreciate everything when you get to my age.”
