Pace and Foley have reportedly been together since 2018. Speculation that the pair were married started after Pace attended the Met Gala in 2021. The media spotted Pace with a ring on his wedding finger at the prestigious event.

When talking about his personal life and sexuality in 2018, he said to W Magazine:
