Last month, the couple celebrated their "25th anniversary," which Seymour quickly clarified as 25 months together. "We decided that [because] we met in our 70s. it's probably safer to go every month," she explained. "So every month, on the fourth, he sends me roses, wherever I am, whatever's going on. We're just so grateful for every minute we have together."
Seymour also told the outlet that she and Zambetti are "very different," but share a strong connection in "living our best lives by supporting one another in what we can do now." For theWedding Crashersstar, that means watching her boyfriend perform gigs and even doing "a little background vocal" on his music.

"All I know is that right now, I am very happy," she said in a May 2024 cover story. "I'm happier than I remember being for as long as I can remember. My family's happy, everyone's happy, and I don't want to mess with happy. So, for right now, where I'm at is really good."
Seymour noted that what she looks for in a relationship had changed over time. "When you're younger, you're looking for hot romance, and then you're looking for a possible baby father, and then you are possibly divorced, so you're now looking for another one or one that can tolerate the first two babies," she explained. "And then you decide, 'We'll have more babies.' I think I'm out of that thing."
