Jennifer Holland has not been married before. Details regarding her former partners have not been made public either.

In a November 2015 Facebook post, Gunn described how the first time he met his fiancée "was like seeing a color I had never seen before." He continued:

"I didn’t know they made people like this: her wisdom, strength, integrity and kindness, all in one human being, were foreign to me."

Holland had similarly uploaded loving social media captions. In an earlier Facebook post, she said:

"James has changed so many people’s lives all around the world with the stories he tells, but there’s no one in the world who’s life has been affected more, or who is happier that James Gunn was born, than me."
