Michael himself got diagnosed with Hodgkin’s lymphoma around the age his father died. He did survive, but in an interview with the New York Times, he shared that he always wondered whether he would live past the age of 39. Hall said:

“I think I’ve been preoccupied since I was 11, and my father died, with the idea of the age 39: ‘Would I live that long? What would that be like? To discover that I had the Hodgkin’s was alarming, but at the same time I felt kind of bemused, like: ‘Wow. Huh. How interesting.”

On the topic of children, Hall mentioned:

"It's no news to anyone, but it's a crazy world, and bringing somebody into that world for a front-row seat is something that gives me pause. But it's also something we talk and think about.”


The couple doesn't have any children as of May 2025.
