Is this movie based on a true story?

Viewers might start getting vibes that May December is based on a true story that hit headlines years ago. In fact, it is true, it is loosely based on the scandal of school teacher, Mary Kay Letourneau. She began a romance with her young 12 year old student at the time, Vili Fualaau.

Nothing kept these two apart. Mary Kay even gave birth to their children while serving her jail sentence and the couple eventually married in 2005. Mary Kay Letourneau passed away in July 2020 from stage 4 cancer.

Vili Fualaau has since welcomed a baby girl named Sophia.
