Personal life

McKeon briefly dated fellow Australian swimmer Kyle Chalmers in 2021. In April 2022, McKeon began dating musician turned swimmer, Cody Simpson, although the couple did not confirm their relationship until July of the same year.

At the 2022 'Better Future for All' forum held at Griffith University, McKeon suggested that while "you do want to be inclusive" it is "not fair" to expect cisgender women to compete against transgender women.
