Mays and Campbell met on the set of the 2007 film Epic Movie, a comedy in which they played siblings. The couple married 10 months after the film's premiere.

"We played brother and sister, which is so incredibly sexy," Mays joked to Us in 2013. "We got to goof off basically every day together for three months and get to know each other really well, and then we started dating."

"He makes me coffee every single morning, which I could not live without, so every morning I feel so lucky, and I thank him every day!" she previously told the magazine.

Mays and Campbell revealed their first date was at a Denny's in a 2011 interview with The Nest. The actress said Epic Movie was "probably the most fun [she's] had filming, calling the comedy a "very goofy film."

Mays is best known for playing Emma Pillsbury on Glee and also portrayed Charlie Andrews on Heroes, Trixie Von Stein on The League and Debbie on The Millers. She's now voicing Dulcinea on The Adventures of Puss and Boots.
