She has been married to Paul Macherey since 2002; they have a daughter, Lola, who was born 4. November, 2004. Because Holloman was pregnant during the filming of The L Word's second season, scripts were adapted to make her character pregnant as well.

Holloman has repeatedly declared being bisexual. This makes her the second openly bisexual actress in the The L Word ensemble cast.
