Alice Evans, 57, has announced the death of her father, David Vincent Evans. In a social post shared with followers, the actress revealed he died on 13 March 2026 and paid tribute with a series of throwback photographs.
Family tribute and public message
Evans shared photos of her father and mother when they were younger alongside a picture of her with her parents, and wrote in full: “Dear Dad, You left us on Friday. Only six months after the death of your beloved son Tony.
“Now all three of you are gone – you, Mum, Tony and it’s just me and Phil from the OG family.
“I hope the three of you are together. I hope there is a place where we get to see the people we’ve lost and that the three of you are having a blast, free from pain and the worry and anxiety and sometimes pure hell of life on earth.
“I hope you know how much wisdom you passed on to me that I am now passing on to my girls.
“Your crazy maths problems, brain teasers, your brilliant anecdotes, encompassing both the respect you had for the incredibly high position you reached in the world of academia, and at times the absurdity of the whole system.
“You taught me to laugh. You taught me that there is humor in almost anything. You taught me to play the piano.
“You taught me not to care what people thought because ‘if you do A, they’ll say you should have done B.
“And if you do B they’ll say you should have done A’. That stayed with me forever.
“Godspeed, Dad. Give Mum and Tone the biggest hug from me.
“David Vincent Evans 27th October 1940. – 13th March 2026 RIP.”
Responses and recent losses
Evans was met with messages of support from followers. One wrote: “I am so sorry for your loss!!! Sending you all my love.” Another posted: “Oh Alice, I’m beyond sorry, my heart goes out to you. You’ve endured so much loss, but know your parents’ love and legacy live on through you. Sending you love, prayers, and compassion God bless sweetheart.” A third added: “So sorry to hear this news. Thinking of you. My condolences. I fully understand how painful this must be right now.”
The announcement follows the death of Evans’s brother Tony, which she revealed in August 2025. In that earlier post she wrote: “On Thursday, at 6.42pm, our beloved Tone left this earth… Tony was the kindest, most loyal, funniest, warm person I could have ever hoped to have had as a sibling. He will leave a gaping hole in the lives of me and the girls… RIP my beautiful, perfect brother.”
