She was married to Sam Simon, an American director, producer, writer, animal rights activist and philanthropist, who co-developed the television series The Simpsons from 1984-1991.
She has been in a relationship with Philip Courtney Laak, an Irish–American professional poker player and a poker commentator since 2004 and the pair are also yet to have children.
Actually, Tilly decided not to have children because at the time, she felt that having children would have killed her career.

She said;

“I remember Robin Wright got the lead in Robin Hood, and then she got pregnant and she had to drop out.
“And Annette Benning lost the part of Catwoman that Michelle Pfeiffer ended up doing because she got pregnant and it derailed her career, briefly.
So, I was like, ‘I must never get pregnant because when I’m about three months Scorsese is going to come calling, and I will have to say no.’”
However, her longtime boyfriend, Phil Laak, told her recently they should consider adopting kids but the idea seemed strange to her.
She responded;
“I’m like, ‘Honey, that ship has sailed. Sailed! I don’t want to spend my declining years looking for a good pediatrician.’”
It must be said that Tilly now questions her decision of not having children.
