Edward Walter Furlong was born on August 2, 1977, in Glendale, California. His mother, Eleanor Torres, worked at a youth center. Information about his biological father is not publicly known. Eleanor later married Moises Torres and had a son, Robert Torres, who became Edward’s stepbrother. At the time of Edward’s breakout role in Terminator 2: Judgment Day, his mother had divorced. Although he never knew his father, Edward believes he is of partial Russian descent, based on what his mother told him.
From 1990 to 2001, Edward was under the guardianship of his aunt Nancy Tafoya and his half-brother Sean Furlong. Both served as his managers in the early stages of his acting career. Edward’s breakout role came when he played John Connor in Terminator 2: Judgment Day (1991), a major box office success. His performance earned him the MTV Movie Award and the Saturn Award for Best Young Actor. He continued to act in notable films such as American Heart (1992), earning further critical acclaim, including a nomination for Best Supporting Male at the Independent Spirit Awards.
At age 15, Edward began a controversial relationship with Jacqueline Domac, his 29-year-old tutor, during the filming of one of his early projects. Due to the nature of their relationship and associated legal concerns, Edward became emancipated at age 16. While the couple were engaged and considered marriage, they separated in 1998. The following year, Domac filed a civil suit against Furlong alleging financial disputes related to her role as his manager and also accused him of physical abuse.
Edward Furlong began dating actress Natasha Lyonne after meeting her during the production of Detroit Rock City (1998). In 2006, he married actress Rachael Bella. The couple welcomed a son, Ethan Page Furlong, on September 21 of that year. Despite staying married for several years, Bella filed for divorce in 2009, citing irreconcilable differences and domestic violence. The separation involved a custody battle, and allegations that resulted in Furlong being denied visitation rights with his son.
