Munn, who has been dating comedian John Mulaney since 2021, stated that in February 2023, her initial test results for the BRCA gene, which is known to cause cancer, were negative. Her mammography yielded no abnormalities. Nevertheless, her physician determined her Breast Cancer Risk Assessment Score as a precaution. In a lengthy Instagram message, Munn said, "The fact that she did saved my life," stating that her lifetime risk was 37%. Eventually, OB/GYN Dr. Thais Aliabadi, her "guardian angel," requested a biopsy, which revealed she had luminal B cancer, an "aggressive, fast-moving cancer," in both of her breasts. "After a 10-hour surgery, I woke up in a hospital bed one day after feeling perfectly fine," Munn added.

The comedian responded, "Thank you for fighting so hard to be here for us. Malc and I adore you." After The 41-year-old Saturday Night Live star and his ex-wife Anna Marie Tendler separated, Munn and Mulaney began dating. They most recently went to the Vanity Fair Oscars celebration over the weekend. Munn announced this three days after she and Mulaney attended the Academy Awards.
In February 2022, Mulaney reflected on their child's birth while hosting Saturday Night Live. We were in the labor and delivery area. In his introductory monologue, he said, "My girlfriend had just given birth to him, and he's crying a little. So they bring him to this warmer on the other side of the delivery room and put them on the warmer under this big bright light and light is just shining in his eyes." He simply squints as he looks up at the light. Despite his irritation, he remained silent. That's my boy, I thought to myself. He is a gentlemanly man in an awkward circumstance, yet he won't raise a fuss. He is really a decent boy.
