She also began working for Barstool Sports that same year. She wrote for the site's female-targeted branch, StoolLaLa, for one year, and left the company in 2011.

Personal life: When Marbles's YouTube endeavors first began to go viral, her then-unemployed mother complained that searching their last name, Mourey, via Google only yielded Marbles' videos, and she was concerned that the content would hinder her job search. It was at this point that Marbles decided to assume the pseudonym "Jenna Marbles," which comes from her dog's name, Mr. Marbles.

Marbles has been in a relationship with fellow YouTuber Julien Solomita since 2013. The couple has been producing a weekly podcast called The Jenna Julien Podcast, formerly The Jenna and Julien Podcast, since 2014. The podcast, which has 922,000 subscribers at the time of writing, discusses topics such as culture, sports, growing up, conspiracy theories. They sometimes feature guests, like YouTube star Shane Dawson, on the podcast, too.

Marbles and Solomita live together and have four dogs: a Chihuahua, Mr. Marbles; and three Italian Greyhounds named Kermit, Peach, and Bunny. The couple adopted Bunny through Greysave, a non-profit organization that focuses specifically on Greyhounds, in 2019.

Marbles has been a vegan since 2015.

Real estate: Marbles became a first-time homeowner in May 2018 when she purchased a residence in Sherman Oaks, California for $2.85 million. The 5,093-square-foot spec home has five bedrooms and six bathrooms and is situated at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac. She posted a video tour of the property, where she lives with Solomita, on her YouTube channel. The video garnered 3.2 million views in the first two weeks.

Prior to buying, she rented a house in Santa Monica that was worth $1.1 million at the time, and then moved to the San Fernando Valley in October 2014, where she rented another home.
