On a more personal note, MAX married professional volleyball player Emily Cannon in April 2016, marking a joyful chapter in his life. The couple welcomed their daughter, Edie, in December 2020, bringing even more happiness into MAX’s life. Through music, acting, and family, MAX continues to evolve—not just as an artist, but as a person fans can truly connect with.
