Eden Brolin Is on the Path to Fame Following Her Celebrity Father – Meet Josh Brolin's Daughter
Eden Brolin is one of Josh Brolin's kids. Her father is a seasoned actor who has planted his fingerprint on the American film industry. Now in her thirties, Eden has ventured unto the same path, appearing on TV dramas "Yellowstone," "Beyond," and then some!
Eden was born on November 30, 1994. She is the second child of her father, Josh Brolin, conceived by his first wife, Alice Adair. "The Avengers II" actor had exchanged vows with Alice Adair in 1988. Eden Brolin's mother was also an entertainer with credits in popular films like "Beverly Hills Cop II" and "Quantum leap."
Her parents had already welcomed her older brother, Trevor Brolin, on June 26, 1988. Trevor has also found his feet in Hollywood. The 34-year-old is an actor and the writer and director of the 2008 short "X." Eden's father had two more children after her.

The Birth of Eden
Alice and Josh were married for six years. The pair, who got married in 1988, parted ways in 1994. In those years, they had Trevor and Eden, who was born in Los Angeles, California, into a family with deep Hollywood roots.
Eden was her parents' first daughter. It is reported that her father was not such a well-put-together parent when she was younger. He experienced issues with anger that he has improved on over the years. A close source explained how it had impacted him as a father.
"Josh is totally focused on being the best parent he can be. Everybody in his life says he’s a much better dad now than he was as a hotheaded guy in his twenties and thirties still trying to figure out the business and his place in it."

Eden Followed in Her Father's Footsteps to Fame
In 2008, Eden made her acting debut in the film "X," directed by her older brother. She is widely recognized for her role as Charlie Singer in the TV series "Beyond." Away from film, Eden has been the lead vocalist of a band called Atta Boy. In 2012, the band released their first project—a self-titled EP.
At the back of their latest release in October, "Crab Park," the band's 2022 Spotify Wrapped showed massive reach as they were credited for an accumulation of 6.3 million streams from 177 different countries.
The band members clearly have a close bond, as evident in their expression of gratitude for Eden's contributions through an Instagram post. It read:
"Happy bday to Eden!! Thanks for letting us tinker away on our instruments behind your awesome vocals!"
Eden Found the Love of Her Life
Eden married her boyfriend, the multi-talented Cameron Crosby. He is an actor who stars in the short film "Cake Day" and as Teddy in "A Million Little Things." He is also a novice writer, poet, and songwriter. The pair broke the news of their engagement in August 2018 by posting a picture on Instagram, showing off the emerald ring on Eden's finger.
Her birth changed Eden's position in her father's life from youngest child to oldest daughter.
On May 1, 2022, Eden and Cameron married in an intimate outdoor wedding. Her father shared a detailed breakdown of his thoughts and emotions on the day, even pointing out that he was inspired to write a book. He said, "I know what to put together. A book from '87 until now: journals, prose, poems: a gasoline bubble bath."
Eden Became an Older Sister at the Age of 24
Josh divorced his first wife, Alice Adair, two years after the birth of Eden, his second child. The "Avengers" star's second wife, Diane Lane, came along in 2004. They stayed together from 2004 to 2013; throughout their years together, Josh and Diane did not have children.
Two failed marriages and two children later, Josh tied the knot with his then-personal assistant, Kathryn Boyd. Eden's then-48-year-old father and his fiancée made their relationship official in 2016. The couple wasted no time and had their first child, Westlyn Brolin, within two years of the marriage.
In 2020, her list of siblings extended as Josh and Kathryn had their second child together, taking the "Avengers" star's tally of children to 4 and making Eden the second of four. Her birth changed Eden's position in her father's life from youngest child to oldest daughter.
