Personal life
When Evans was a student in Cambridge he met his wife, Judith, at
a lunch held by his aunt, wife of an astronomy professor. After they
were engaged, their relationship did not go well and Judith went to live
in Canada; however, a year later she returned to England and they
married. In 1978, they moved from London to Cambridge with their young
children, where they lived for more than 20 years before moving to
Cardiff. They have one daughter and two sons. Their older son was a
student at the University of Cambridge and their younger son was a
boarder at Christ Church Cathedral School in Oxford and sang in Christ
Church Cathedral choir.
Judith Evans, granddaughter of Christopher Williams,
was appointed Member of the Order of the British Empire for her
services to practice nursing in the 1993 New Year Honours She was
diagnosed with breast cancer at about the time the family moved to
Cardiff. She works for breast cancer charities, and Martin Evans has
become a trustee of Breakthrough Breast Cancer.
