Cabrera was imprisoned on the charges of assaulting, threatening, and harassing his partner. Eventually, he met his future wife and partner for life, Yamila Alvarez. The pair dated for four long years, and despite the hardship in personal life, Alvarez has been a constant supporter of Cabrera.

The golfer, thanks to his good behavior, was among the few inmates who got to meet his partner fortnightly, as per an ESPN report. It stated, “Cabrera was among inmates granted two-hour visits with partners every 15 days because of good behavior.”

The family hit a major milestone in 2022 with the birth of Angel Cabrera’s son, Felipe. As soon as he got out of prison, Cabrera turned his 2022 engagement into marriage with Yamila Alvarez in August 2023.

Apart from the son with Alvarez, the Argentine professional was associated with many partners in the past. Cabrera was in a relationship with Silvia Rivadero, with whom the golfer has two sons, Federico and Angel.

Following their father’s footsteps, they pursued golf and competed on the PGA Tour Latinoamerica. Federico Cabrera turned professional in 2008 and attempted to qualify for the PGA Tour in 2011. Angel Jr. turned professional in 2021 and kickstarted with the Canadian Tour. He even caddied for his father during the Masters Tournament.

Angel Cabrera’s performance as a golfer and legal issues kept him in the spotlight, but his identity as a father of three wasn’t known to many. But everything aside, with his two sons following his lead to take up golfing, life surely has come a full circle for the golfer!
