So I never belonged anywhere. Watching Eddie gave me a sense of pride that helped me fight through that.

Kaylie Mahoney Guerrero, born in 2002, is the youngest daughter of Eddie Guerrero.
Unlike her half-sisters, Shaul Marie Guerrero and Sherilyn Amber Guerrero, who are daughters of Eddie and his wife Vickie Guerrero (married 1990), Kaylie is the daughter of Eddie and a woman named Tara Mahoney.
Eddie and Vickie separated but did not divorce for two years in 2002 due to marital issues. During this time, Eddie entered into a relationship with Tara and had Kaylie.
Shaul followed in her father’s footsteps and pursued wrestling. Sherlyn has a career in photography.
Kaylie, on the other hand, is an aspiring special effects (SFX) makeup artist.
She specializes in horror-themed makeup and has worked on projects like the horror film “A Cold Grave,” in which she played Anne.
Kaylie is active on social media platforms like Instagram, X, and TikTok, where she posts glimpses from her professional life, vacations, and milestone celebrations.

Despite his professional success, Eddie struggled with substance abuse issues, including alcoholism and an addiction to painkillers, which were sometimes incorporated into his wrestling storylines.
Eddie Guerrero passed away on November 13, 2005, due to acute heart failure brought on by a clogged artery.
His death was a significant loss to the wrestling community, and he was posthumously inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2006.
