Simon has never stated why he is unmarried and has never been seen with any woman who appears to be his wife or girlfriend.
But there are speculations that he is hiding his marriage to avoid media attention.
However, the actor has never come forward to clear all suspicions.
He seems to be more concerned about his career than finding someone to spend his life with. He even lost some weight to get a role.

Simon, who stands at the height of 6 feet, had to get in shape to secure the role of 'Marcus Licinius Crassus.' And he indeed shed 20 pounds for the television series.
In an interview with Men's Journal, Simon shared the workout routines that he underwent,
“I did morning walks, which happened even before I did the day’s exercise, I’d have black coffee on an empty stomach and go on a hard 45-minute walk, which would kick-start my metabolism.”
Merrells even provided insight on the low-fat diet that he followed,
“Throughout the day I was eating about a kilo (around 2.2 pounds) of meat and a kilo of vegetables, but very few carbohydrates—we’d usually cut them out after lunch, So you’re eating a lot, but it was just being burned off. It was all fuel.”

Moreover, Simon was impressed with how his body functioned after the shift rather than the shape he achieved.
“It’s the most challenging fight choreography I’ve ever been involved in, but I've done all my own fights, It’s a matter of pride for me when the stunt team says, ‘You can do it."
Simon shared the secret for achieving the perfect body that must blend in with your workout schedules.
“The main thing is diet, and really finding out all the myths about what you can and can’t eat. If you think about what you’re eating and you eat clean, the effects are dramatic. But you have to stick to it.”
