In 2011, Pat was said to have been involved with TV host Tania Zaetta, however he is known to keep his private life under wraps.
Pat recently made headlines after he slammed the 'out of control' crowd behaviour at the Australian Open.
Australia's Open, an ABC TV documentary which aired last year, explores the darker side of the nation's biggest annual global sporting event.
Raucous crowd behaviour at the event has annoyed many players in recent years but left tennis fans divided, with some liking the rowdiness and others finding it disrespectful.
'I think the Australian crowds in the last 10 years have got a little out of control,' Cash said.
'Cheer on your countrymen, no problems, but they're not representing your country, they're individual and I think we need to understand that.'
However, Nick Kyrgios's view could not be further from Pat's stance, with the 28-year-old taking aim at the former Wimbledon champ.
Speaking to Daily Mail Australia, Nick labelled the Aussie hero 'an old head'.
'[It was an] Absolutely stupid comment by another old head that has no idea how marketing or how things work in today's day and age,' he said at QT Melbourne.
'You need entertainment. This generation doesn't have a long attention span. That's why you see clips on Instagram rolling. They're 15-20 seconds long.
'Someone like Pat Cash wouldn't be able to grasp that concept. And I'm not taking anything away from Pat Cash. Incredible player of his generation, but we need to continue to make the sport grow for fans everywhere.'

England's opponents STILL desperate to escape World Cup kiss-gate drama: 'Stained' Spain want to win Euros final to relive the moment sleazy FA chief Luis Rubiales 'stole' from them
When England line up against world champions Spain on Sunday, they'll do so not only for silverware – but against the backdrop of a story that has, in many ways, transcended football itself. The last time these two teams met in a major tournament final, the furore that followed – protests, boycotts and even a hunger strike – overshadowed the historic achievement of Spain's victory on the pitch. Where celebrations and street parties should have erupted, the country instead found itself gripped by national unrest and a #MeToo movement that shook the very foundations of Spanish society. From a footballing perspective, tensions had been building for months ahead of the 2023 World Cup final – most notably with the protest of 'Las 15', a group of players who made themselves unavailable for selection in September 2022. Their decision was a stand against poor player welfare, with particular focus on head coach Jorge Vilda and his management style. Among their concerns were his questionable tactical acumen and alleged controlling behaviour. Vilda was reportedly known to enter players' hotel rooms at night to talk, ask who they were meeting for coffee, and inspect their shopping bags. He was also widely viewed as a stooge of Luis Rubiales, the President of Spain's Football Federation. Despite the absence of 12 of the 15 players and the turmoil behind the scenes, Spain fought their way to the final and triumphed – beating England 1–0, despite Mary Earps ' penalty save. And then came the moment that set everything ablaze – when Rubiales kissed midfielder Jenni Hermoso as she made her way to the stage to lift the trophy alongside her team-mates. The fallout was seismic. Rubiales insisted the kiss was consensual; Hermoso said it was not. Initial reaction to the incident on the country's most popular late-night radio sports show, 'El Partidazo de la Cope', ranged from shrugging indifference to outright defence of Rubiales. 24 hours later, the programme's host, Juanma Castano, issued a solemn apology, saying he 'didn't consider the difference in power and it's true that it's a boss kissing an employee'. The world took sides – and so did Spain's players. 81 of them, including all 23 World Cup winners, announced they would not return to international duty while Rubiales remained in post. His mother went on hunger strike in support of her son. Within a month, the Federation yielded. Vilda was dismissed, and Rubiales eventually stepped down. Montse Tome, Vilda's assistant, was appointed head coach – the first woman to hold the role. Rubiales would later be found guilty of sexual assault, though acquitted of coercion. Netflix later released a documentary entitled 'It's All Over: The Kiss That Changed Spanish Football', and the story continued to dominate headlines, sparking a wider cultural movement. Now, almost two years on, Spain stand on the brink of another major final. But a sense of unresolved tension lingers – a tug-of-war between the desire to focus on football and the reality that the process of healing and rebuilding trust remains unfinished. Keira Walsh, England's midfielder and a former Barcelona player with close ties to many in the Spain squad, spoke candidly on Thursday: 'Experiencing what it was like in Spain, I think they probably could have had more,' she said. Now, Spain are in a tug-of-war between the desire to focus on football and the reality that the process of healing and rebuilding trust 'The way our league jumped after we won the Euros, if you compare it to Spain, it probably wasn't the same. They had just won the World Cup, and they could have had more support. 'After the game there was all the controversy, and I don't think there was enough spotlight on how incredibly they had played. It was all about everything else and as a professional that was difficult to see.' Tome has faced her own challenges – chief among them earning the trust of a squad that once viewed her as part of the old guard. Some of that mistrust stemmed from her public support of Rubiales, applauding him when he declared he was 'not going to step aside'. Notably absent from her Euros squad is Hermoso – the official line due to 'competition for places', though the decision has raised eyebrows. But there is a sense that the players want the focus to return to the pitch, rather than remain off it. After all, they boast one of the most formidable midfields in the women's game, led by Patri, Aitana Bonmati and Alexia Putellas. Patri, who returned last year from a two-year exile alongside Claudia Pina after receiving assurances from the RFEF that changes would be made, has lit up this year's tournament – as has Pina. As former player and veteran journalist Sandra Riquelme put it: 'The price to pay has been very high, just ask Jenni Hermoso. But without justifying it, if it has served to bring about the biggest change in the history of Spanish football, then good has come of it.'

Welsh actor looks unrecognisable almost 30 years after his breakout role in iconic film as he strolls through London - but can YOU guess who it is?
A Welsh-born actor known for his roles in breakthrough films Twin Town and Notting Hill looked unrecognisable out in London on Friday. After his breakthrough, the actor went on to star in The Amazing Spider-Man and Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows, most recently making an appearance in the House Of The Dragon. He presented Welsh-language television programmes on S4C after leaving school, before making a play for the stage by studying at the Guildhall School Of Music & Drama. The BAFTA-winning actor a low profile as he stepped out in the capital on Friday on a rainy summer's day. For his outing, he wore a simple black t-shirt and grey jeans and trainers, adding a pop of colour with a colourful baseball cap. He appeared to be sporting a recent injury as he could be seen with a black wrist support glove on one hand - but can YOU guess who it is? It's none other than Rhys Ifans, who played the iconic role of Spike in the 1999 film Notting Hill alongside Hugh Grant and Julia Roberts. Rhys previously revealed how he led a double life of studying in an elitist drama college while breaking off doors to live illegally in around fifteen squats for months at a time. The Welsh actor said he would remove steel doors of empty council properties and change the locks before using them as his accommodation for over four years. The Notting Hill star recalled his 'great life' squatting while studying at Guildhall School of Music and Drama in the Nineties, but added he knew it was 'illegal and dangerous'. He told Rob Brydon's podcast: 'I'd been in London a year before I went to drama school. I moved down with a mate of mine. 'For my whole period in drama school I lived in squats. I lived in about fourteen, fifteen different squats. 'It was of course illegal, and I guess looking back, dangerous. But it was a great life. 'It would be council properties, council flats. You take the steel door off in the middle of the night and then as soon as you change the locks put a notice on the door. 'They had to then switch the gas and electricity on and then you could be in it for weeks to months.' He added: 'But it was a constant case of we moved around a lot with a group of lads and girls from Belfast who I'd met at a Cramps gig and we lived together for four or five years moving in and out of different squats of varying degrees of comfort and discomfort. 'In a sense I had this real double life, which was wonderful. 'I had this kind of elitist wonderful life in college and then this extraordinary kind of vagabond existence when I went home each night. 'It was easy to do then. It's nigh on impossible now to break a squat but then it was relatively simple.' In recent years, Rhys has played Fool to Glenda Jackson's King Lear, and Scrooge at the Old Vic. He led the National's Exit The King; and then starred at the Royal Court in Ed Thomas's play On Bear Ridge. It comes after Rod Stewart revealed in 2020 that he wants a movie to be made about his life, following the success of Bohemian Rhapsody and Rocketman - and tapped actor Rhys to play him. Sharing his thoughts on why the Notting Hill star was perfect, he said: 'Yeah, Rhys would be a very good idea. [But] he has got to do something with his barnet.'
