She was invited to a dinner party at Crawford&#8217;s home when the legendary actress insisted the couple tie the knot that night.<\/p>\n<p>Evans had recently celebrated her 18th birthday and Weatherly was 26 at the time when Crawford called a judge over to her home. Evans and Weatherly said &#8220;I do&#8221; just after midnight on July 24, 1952.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The head of publicity at Goldwyn had said to me, \u2018Joan, I don\u2019t care what you do, just don\u2019t call me in the middle of the night and tell me you\u2019re married,\u2019&#8221; Evans recounted in the interview. &#8220;So, I called him in the middle of the night and told him I was married.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>According to the star, her parents were very unhappy with Crawford and did not speak to her again. However, Evans remained close to Crawford up until her death in 1977.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I saw a wonderful, darling friend who was generous to the max to everyone, certainly to me,&#8221; Evans said. &#8220;When I was a little girl, I traveled on the train from New York to California with Joan; now that would bring out the worst in any great actress, [and it didn\u2019t].&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Evans and Weatherly were married until his death on Jan. 1, 2023. At the time of the interview, Evans said their marriage &#8220;wasn\u2019t the mistake that my parents foretold.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The couple share a son, John, and a daughter, Dale.
