In 2021, Breeds, who was starring in Clarice at the time, spoke with PEOPLE about meeting her husband Mitchell on the set of the long-running Aussie soap opera Home and Away.

"The day I [found out about Clarice], he was waiting to hear about something as well," she said of Mitchell.

"And we just couldn't function. I'm like, 'I can't think about anything. Let's just go for a drive.' We drove to Malibu and we were sitting at a café. ... After I got the call and ran back in the restaurant, obviously we ordered champagne straightaway. And then that night he found out he got his role in [the new CW series] The Republic of Sarah as well. So it was one of the craziest days of my life."

In January 2023, Breeds and Mitchell celebrated their 10 year wedding anniversary, with the actress posting a few photos on her Instagram from their wedding and their years together.

"Love is the best adventure. 💗 #10years," Breeds wrote at the time.
