Early life
Edward Furlong was born in Glendale, California, the son of Eleanor Torres (née Tafoya), a youth-center employee, and Heinrich Bruno Wittig. Furlong is a Mexican descendant from his mother's side and has also described himself as a "part Russian."
Nancy Tafoya's mother and their half-brother, Sean Furlong, were given custody of him for many years, beginning in 1990-1901. Both the two were originally furlong's bosses.
Personal life
When California's constitutional rape statute was amended in 1994 to allow the prosecution of adult women with minors, his uncle Sean Furlong lodged a lawsuit against Furlong's tutor Jacqueline Domac, but was unsuccessful in getting Domac to prosecute. Domac was sued by Furlong in May 1999 for domestic assault.
On April 19, 2006, Furlong married Rachael Bella. In September 2006, the couple's son was born. She applied for divorce on July 8, 2009, citing irreconcilable inconsistency. She attempted to restraining order she had filed later in 2009 so that she could visit their child. Bella pleaded guilty of cocaine in 2012, prompting a judge to rule Furlong's visits had to be monitored.
Furlong has battled alcoholism and heroin use throughout his life. In October 2000, he was first admitted to rehab. He was "on and off" hard drugs from 22 to 26, and he said, "I was a heroin and cocaine user." It was really scary." "I don't even think about (partying) anymore. It seems that running, clubbing, and doing coke make it all bleak. I have nightmares about doing hard drugs. I'll wake up and wonder, 'Did I relapse?'" Bella reportedly punched her in a drug-fueled altercation in September 2009. In 2010, he was given three years of probation for breaching Bella's civil protective order. He was arrested and charged with violent domestic assault against his mother Monica Keena in October 2012. He was arrested in November 2012 for reportedly attacking Keena. He was arrested and charged with misdemeanor battery against Keena in January 2013. On December 12, the defendant was also charged with outstanding misdemeanor domestic violence in connection with a misdemeanor domestic assault charge involving the same suspect. After being sentenced to 180 days in prison for a breach of probation, he "used force" against his ex-girlfriend, as well as in breach of a safeguard order prohibiting entry and contact with Keena. Since being sentenced to five years in jail for drug use for 90 days and one year of domestic violence education, he was arrested again in May 2013 for assaulting his mother and avoiding a new prison term. He had already served 61 days in prison.

On Suplee's podcast American Glutton, Furlong reunited with his former American History X co-star Ethan Suplee to discuss Furlong's drug use and bingees. He was three years sober from alcohol and illegal drugs at the time of publication. "I was actually afraid of going without a whole lot of crap because I was who I was." He is retaining his sobriety and attending virtual Alcoholics Anonymous Home Group meetings hosted over Zoom video conferencing.
