It comes after reports surfaced claiming Patti had issued a desperate plea to Matthew back in November.
Woman’s Day claimed Patti was committed to having her son return to Melbourne for a reunion after years away from home and a series of scandals.
Matthew hasn’t been home to Australia in years and didn’t return for his father’s funeral in 2021.
He has been enjoying a quiet and anonymous life in America following a series of scandals.
This includes domestic violence allegations from two former girlfriends: Australian actresses Brooke Satchwell, 43, and Rachael Taylor, 39.
In 2007, he pleaded guilty to assaulting Satchwell. A judge would later overturn the conviction because Matthew suffered from a ‘severe depressive disorder.’
Three years later, Matthew was given a two-year apprehended domestic violence order after Taylor reported he had assaulted her at a hotel in Rome.
He was also arrested twice in Miami, Florida, in 2012 – the first for trespassing and resisting officers, while a second incident saw him charged with battery and resisting arrest after he attacked a hotel receptionist.
Following the charges, Matthew checked into the Betty Ford Center in California for 90 days of alcohol and drug treatment.
