Biographie

Evans has been openly gay since he became an actor, which he saw as a childhood vocation. Interviewed by The Daily Telegraph in 2014 Evans said things weren’t easy in his youth and that he was bullied at school, saying: “It wasn’t allowed when I was growing up. It was very much a macho culture and the feeling of not belonging to that was very difficult." In 2011, in an interview with The Guardian, it was revealed that his adolescence was "lived around bus and train trips to Stratford" to watch RSC productions. Commenting on his upbringing in Wales, Evans said, "My family still live there. They were very liberal, thank god, and still are. They encouraged me.
