Evie became an enormously popular recurring guest on “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert.” In May 2022, she came on for the show’s “First Drafts” segment and gave her opinion on which Mother’s Day cards were appropriate and which were “sometimes offensive.” Evelyn appeared again in February for the “First Drafts” Valentine’s Day segment and told the audience how she and Stephen got engaged. “We went for a lovely walk and we were in The Battery in Charleston in the gazebo and you asked me if I would marry you,” she recounted. Looking at Stephen she continued, “And I said — and this says a lot about me, not about you — I said, ‘Are you sure?'” The couple’s working relationship extends beyond “The Late Show” and the two also work side-by-side at Stephen’s production company.
