Life and career

Though once a libertarian, she has since renounced the label. Asked in a 2013 interview how her politics inform her writing, Campbell answered: "I don't go into pieces thinking 'how can I make a libertarian sketch. I never think that. It's what's funniest. And I think the best way to serve political Libertarianism is to just do the best work."
Personal life
In October 2018, she came out on Instagram as part of National Coming Out Day. She has been in a relationship with screenwriter, playwright, and showrunner Mary Laws since 2019, and announced in 2023 on her podcast Get Played that the two had gotten married.
