Speaking to Navbharat Times in an interview, a couple of years ago, Mahie said that she is a single mom to a young girl. “Now that you have asked me, let me tell you. I am a mother to a young girl who turns three this August. Yes, I haven’t married yet. I will get married when I want to.”

Her daughter is named Veronica who will turn 5 in August, this year. Mahi currently lives with her businessman beau who owns many hotels and casinos across Goa. She doesn't wish to name him as he wants to stay away from the limelight.

"I have a boyfriend. He is not Catholic. He is a businessman. I'd love to name him, but he wants to stay out of the limelight. My boyfriend owns hotels and casinos across Goa as well as globally. I was with him when he opened a venture in Georgia recently. Sometimes, it feels like we're in a long-distance relationship as he travels a lot. But whenever he's in Goa, I move there as both of us own properties there," Mahie Gill said in an interview.

The 44-year-old actress believes that families and children can be made without marriage as well. Hence, she is in no hurry of getting married to her boyfriend.

"What is the need for marriage? It all depends on the thinking and time. Families and children can be made without marriage. There should be no problem with having children without marriage. I do not think there is a problem... Marriage is a beautiful thing, but doing it or not is a personal choice," she said.

Talking about her daughter and her name, Mahie said, "Her name is Veronica. She lives with me. Why I named her Veronica - When Jesus was dragged on the cross and he was being taken to Jerusalem to be crucified, a woman dared to wipe his face with her handkerchief and his image was printed on it. That woman was called Veronica. And the meaning is- She who brings victory to true image. Thus, I liked the name and named my daughter Veronica."
