Alyssa Milano Bio & Age
Alyssa Milano was born on the 19th of December, 1972 in Brooklyn, New York. Her father is Thomas Milano, the film-music editor and her mother is Lin Milano, a talent manager, and fashion designer. She is of Italian descent and was raised as a Roman Catholic. She also has a brother, Cory Milano, who is younger than she is by seven years.
Alyssa lived with her family in Bensonhurst, Brooklyn until there was a neighborhood shooting. After the shooting, the family relocated to Great Kills, Staten Island.
She began her career when she was only seven. At the time, her babysitter took her for an audition for one of the roles for Annie in a national touring company play without notifying her parents. Out of 1,500, Alyssa was lucky enough to land one of the key roles. For the play, she traveled with her mother for eighteen months, after which she returned to New York and began appearing in commercials. She also landed roles in several off-Broadway plays and even appeared in Jane Eyre‘s first American musical adaptation.
Shortly after, she landed her first agent when she accompanied a friend from the Annie production to meet a talent agent in New York. After being introduced to the agent, he decided to represent her.
Who Is The Husband?
Alyssa Milano is married to David Bugliari, an agent at Creative Artists Agency. The two became engaged after dating for only a year and they got married in 2009 at David’s family home in New Jersey.
Prior to her ‘happy ever after’ with David, Alyssa was in a relationship with Corey Haim (of Lost Boys fame) from 1987 to 1990. During that time, Alyssa, her parents, and his managers struggled to help Haim combat his addiction. Unfortunately, they were unsuccessful. Corey Haim passed away on the 10th of March 2010.
After her relationship with Haim, the actress dated and became engaged to Scott Wolf, an American actor. The two broke off their engagement in 1994.
In 1999, Alyssa got married to Cinjun Tate, a musician, but the marriage was short-lived and ended the next year, in 2000.
