Mikey Day's on-screen work garners attention, and his personal life has also piqued curiosity, especially his love life from his previous relationship with Selma Blair to embarking on a journey of fatherhood with Paula Christensen.
Mickey Day, born Michael William Day, was previously romantically involved with actress Selma Blair, whom he dated dating in December 2008.
The former couple first hit it off while filming the American sitcom, "Kath & Kim," which premiered in May 2002 on Fox and aired for four seasons.

The series followed the mother, Kath (Molly Shannon), and daughter Kim (Selma Blair), who had just parted ways from her spouse, Craig (Day). Blair admitted she "fell in love" with her on-screen love interest while filming the show.
However, the two only started dating once filming ended but broke up in 2009. It remains unclear when they split in real life and Day and since moved on with someone else.
