Rebecca is currently married to American actor Morgan Spector. The couple first met in 2014 after they appeared alongside each other in the stage production of Machinal.
A year later, the pair married. Their wedding was later mocked on social media after she told The Guardian about the bizarre and pretentious way she chose to celebrate her wedding day.
“One friend, artist Rob Roth, leapt out of the shrubbery dressed as a werewolf and sang, ‘If a double-decker bus / crashes into us…’", the actress recalled. Actor Dan Stevens, called everybody out to the pond as a blood moon was rising and gave them a candle to hold.
The pair later welcomed their daughter, Ida, into the world in 2018.
Morgan is widely known for playing George Russell in The Gilded Age, as well as starring in Boston Strangler, Orange Is the New Black, The Mist and Homeland.
The pair currently live in the countryside and describe themselves as "pretty quiet people."
Speaking about her rural life to People, she said: "I like to live pretty quietly, but I also don't like to just do that," says Hall. "I like to have the option to then dip into a lot of culture in the city, and we live close enough that we can do that and just go and be out and see friends and do that for a while."
"I have my fill of that, and then I'm like, 'Right, back into hibernation!'"
Before meeting Morgan Spector, Hall was in a relationship with James Bond and 1917 director Sam Mendes between 2011 and 2013.
