Just two days after filing for separation from husband-of-17-years Clint Eastwood, Dina Eastwood reportedly dismissed their legal separation in court.

Us Weekly reports that Dina, 48, retracted her original separation filing from Clint, 83, on Sept. 11 at the Monterey County Superior Court. She had initially asked for spousal support and physical custody of the couple's 16-year-old daughter, Morgan.

The Eastwoods are thought to have broken up one year prior to her separation filing, though neither has yet to release an official statement regarding the matter. An insider for Us Weekly told the publication that "Clint fell out of love with Dina a long time ago."

Dina and Clint aren't the only Eastwoods to have generated attention recently. Eastwood's 27-year-old son, Scott, made a splash in the October issue of Town & Country magazine, where the actor posed topless and spoke of being a "man's man." Dina again offered her full support of Clint's son (from his marriage to Jaclyn Reeves), telling Us Weekly: "He is an amazing young man! He has had nothing handed to him -- ever."
