Jacob Elordi rushed to the court claiming a male fan with a criminal history keeps showing up at his residence with unwanted gifts. The star added that even when he told the guy to leave, he kept professing his love for him.
The Euphoria star approached the court on Monday to get a restraining order against 61-year-old, Robert Dennis Furo, who he claims has been stalking him, reported TMZ.
Who is Robert Dennis Furo?
Jacob alleged Furo twice dropped by his Hollywood home in February to leave gifts, pastries, a bouquet of roses, candies and a handwritten note. Jacob said he never met the guy before, reported TMZ citing some official documents.
Jacob claimed that the first incident happened on February 5 when he went out to walk his dog with his friend and returned home to find a bag of pastries hanging over a street-facing side gate.
He alleged that he threw the food but after some time Furo himself came into his yard yelling Jacob’s name, professing his love and saying he was happy to see Jacob’s “stupid ugly face.”
Jacob says he opposed the guy, telling him to beat it. When the guy finally left, Jacob says he ran outside to get his license plate and then called the police.

Weeks later, Jacob complained that in another instance found flowers, candy and a note in his backyard. Security footage showed Furo entering his property 3 times in 30 minutes that day.
“Jacob, I wanted to apologize for 3 sat. ago. Was hoping to catch you in. Wanted you to tell me if you have been sending. I found you on a beautiful Saturday afternoon quite organically without address without getting lost like this time. Would it be possible if you could call. My hands are shaking,” Jacob’s complaint read.
Jacob feared that Furo is monitoring his home or tracking his location. Furo keeps posting on social media about how he loves him, and Jacob fears that his behavior may escalate.
