Eva was born in Budapest, Hungary, the daughter of Vilmos Gabor and Jansci Tilleman (or Jolie Gabor). Her elder sisters are Magda Gabor and Zsa Zsa Gabor, who came to the U.S. AFTER her, and outlived her, despite her being the youngest sister. Gabor's maternal family was Jewish and her maternal grandparents died in the Holocaust. Biographers speculate that her paternal family were originally Jewish as well, but converted to Catholicism in order to assimilate, although this has not been confirmed.
