Private life
In 1920 Mackay became the second wife of actor Lionel Atwill, but they divorced in March 1928, after he had detectives raid an apartment on Manhattan's 68th Street in 1925, where Mackay was found with actor Max Montesole. One source claims that they had a son, John. A second source says that Atwill was survived by his son John in 1946. A third source is somewhat contradictory as Atwill's son John from his first marriage died in World War II.
