It was not not directly stated but I can deduce from the scripture in 1corinthians 7:1-40 that Paul die a single.

Yes it is mentioned in the bible. 1 Cor 7:1, It is good for a man to not touch a women. 1 Cor 7:32, If you are married, you careth for the things of the world instead of caring for the things of the Lord. 1Cor 6:7, for I would that all men were even as I myself, verse 8, I say therefore to the unmarried and widows, It is good for them if they abide even as I, but if they cannot contain, let them marry. Paul was never married.

No, Paul was not married. He was a bachelor and lived for some time with Barnabas, another bachelor. If you read I Corinthians 7:7, he wish every man was like himself. But since not all men have the same nature, it is better to get married than to burn. It means Paul had nothing to do with women. As a Hellenist Jew that he was from youth, until he came to know the Law which condemns Homosexuality, he had no taboo with respect to the gay style of life. His thorn in his flesh started pricking when he found out from the Law that it a sin. Then, his struggle with repressed homosexual feelings started. (Rom. 7:13-25) But, according to verse 25, he seems to have found a way to accommodate both behavious: To serve God in his mind and sin in his flesh.
