In May 2021, during an interview with One Peloton, Allyson Felix shared that becoming a mother has changed how she sees life. She wanted to help women and young girls. The Olympian revealed her success comes from the support of her family, friends, and training team.

Being a mother has changed Felix's daily routine. She balances training with taking care of Camryn. Her schedule is busy, but she makes time for family and fitness. She expressed that while it could be hard, it helped her stay focused.

The athlete further added that her daughter was her biggest inspiration and motivated her to be her best. Reflecting on the bond, she said:

"It all circles back to my ability to make my daughter proud."

In November 2018, Felix had pre-eclampsia when she was 32 weeks pregnant. This increased her blood pressure very high, therefore doctors had to do an emergency C-section. Her daughter, Camryn, was born early and weighed a little over two kilograms (4 pounds 8 ounces). She stayed in the hospital for a month before she could go home.

The athlete and her husband, Kenneth Ferguson, tied the knot in 2018, after their first meeting at the 2002 USA Track and Field Junior National Championship.
