Colton Jack: Who Is Chris Evert’s Youngest Son and What Is He Doing Now?

Colton Jack Mill, born on June 14, 1996, is the youngest son of Christine Marie Evert — one of the most decorated tennis players in history — and Andy Mill, a two-time Olympic alpine ski racer. Known in family circles simply as “Colt,” he has spent virtually his entire adult life away from cameras, a deliberate contrast to the extraordinary public visibility of the household he was raised in.

His mother holds 18 Grand Slam singles titles. His father was America’s top downhill ski racer for the better part of a decade. Between them, his parents shaped two separate eras of American sport — and yet Colton has never shown any particular interest in trading on either legacy. That quiet preference for privacy, unusual in the social-media age and genuinely rare for someone born into a family of this profile, defines what little is publicly known about him.

This biography draws on verified public reporting, court documents, and statements from Chris Evert herself — who has spoken warmly and frequently about all three of her sons across various media interviews — to piece together the factual record on Colton’s life, background, and current circumstances. Where information has not been publicly confirmed, that is stated clearly rather than estimated.

Early Life & Upbringing

Colton was born on June 14, 1996, in the United States, making him a Gemini by birth sign and the third and youngest child of Chris Evert and Andy Mill. His parents had married eight years earlier, on July 30, 1988, in Boca Raton, Florida — an occasion reported widely at the time given that both were already high-profile public figures. By the time Colton arrived, his older brothers Alexander James (born May 1991) and Nicholas Joseph (born 1994) were already part of an active, sports-infused household.

Growing up between the family’s home in Florida and time spent in Aspen, Colorado — where Andy Mill had deep roots from his competitive skiing years — Colton’s childhood unfolded in two distinct landscapes. Florida was his mother’s world: the Evert family had been rooted in Fort Lauderdale for generations, and Chris had long since made Boca Raton her base. Aspen carried his father’s identity, a mountain town synonymous with adventure sports, outdoor culture, and the kind of lifestyle Andy Mill had carved out across decades of skiing and, later, tarpon fishing.

Chris Evert has spoken in interviews about raising her sons with a sense of balance rather than pushing them toward any one sport. The family had a tennis court at home, and the boys played regularly — but she also described a garage fitted with a halfpipe for skateboarding, an activity that would go on to define eldest brother Alexander’s early adult years. Andy Mill, for his part, introduced all three sons to fishing, hunting, motorcycles, and golf, alongside tennis. As Evert put it in a 2016 interview with Hello! magazine, recounting her former husband’s contribution to their sons’ lives: he was “a great father to my boys” who took them into the outdoors and “introduced them to so much.”

Colton was around ten years old when his parents’ marriage officially ended, with the divorce finalised on December 4, 2006. The split was front-page material, partly because Evert had left Andy Mill for Greg Norman, an Australian professional golfer who had been one of Mill’s closest friends. That particular dimension of the divorce made it harder to avoid than most. For three boys then aged between ten and fifteen, the family rupture and its tabloid aftermath could not have been easy to navigate — even if, by all public accounts, both parents handled their co-parenting with care in the years that followed. The family stayed close, and photos from subsequent years show Colton accompanying his mother and brothers to charitable events and gala evenings, even as he avoided any active public profile of his own.

Parents, Siblings & Family Background

Christine Marie Evert — Chris Evert — was born on December 21, 1954, in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Her father, Jimmy Evert, was a professional tennis coach who had won the Canadian Championships in 1947 and passed his knowledge directly to his daughter from the age of five. She turned professional in the early 1970s and went on to dominate women’s tennis for the better part of two decades, winning 18 Grand Slam singles titles (including a record seven French Open titles and six US Open titles), holding the world No. 1 ranking for 260 weeks, and reaching the semifinals or better in 52 of the 56 Grand Slams she entered. She retired from professional tennis after the 1989 US Open and was inducted into the International Tennis Hall of Fame in 1995. Since then she has worked as a coach, commentator, and charitable organizer — most visibly through the annual Chris Evert/Raymond James Pro-Celebrity Tennis Classic, a fundraiser for at-risk children held in Boca Raton that the family has attended together over many years.

Andy Ray Mill, born February 11, 1953, in Fort Collins, Colorado, grew up in Aspen after his family relocated in the early 1960s. He joined the US Ski Team in 1971 as a junior racer and went on to become the country’s top downhill competitor for the better part of seven years, earning the nickname “Wilde Hund” — wild dog — from European competitors for his gritty, long-haired style. His career highlight came at the 1976 Winter Olympics in Innsbruck, Austria, where he placed sixth in the downhill despite skiing on a severely bruised lower leg from a training injury the day before. He reportedly froze the injured leg in snow just before entering the start gate and was later honoured with the US Olympic Spirit Award in recognition of that performance. He competed in two Olympics in total (1976 and 1980) before a serious training crash at Wengen, Switzerland ended his racing career in January 1981. Post-retirement, he built a successful broadcasting career covering skiing for ESPN, NBC, ABC, and CBS, and also became one of the most accomplished tarpon fly fishers in the United States, winning five Gold Cup Tarpon tournaments — a record. After his divorce from Evert, he married Debra Harvick in 2009, though that marriage also later ended. He and his son Nicholas co-host an outdoor podcast, Mill House, focused on fishing, hunting, and conversation with outdoor industry figures.

Colton’s older brothers both have more visible public presences than he does. Alexander James Mill, born May 31, 1991, was a competitive skateboarder in his younger years before transitioning to CrossFit, and has been involved with the Invictus Games athlete community. Nicholas Joseph Mill, born in 1994 and known as “Nicky,” works in finance and co-hosts the Mill House podcast alongside their father, as well as working as a fly fishing guide in summer and a big game archery hunting guide in the fall. Nicky was the first of the three brothers to marry, wedding Rebecca Mill in September 2022 — a milestone Chris Evert celebrated publicly on social media. Despite the family’s well-documented closeness, Colton remains the most elusive of the three.

The family maintained a genuine relationship with Andy Mill even after the divorce. Chris Evert has spoken openly about the fact that her former husband stayed involved in all three boys’ lives — joining family gatherings and supporting Evert through her subsequent health challenges in a way that drew wide praise. When Evert was undergoing chemotherapy for ovarian cancer after her 2021 diagnosis, Mill was reported to have accompanied her to treatment sessions. The co-parenting dynamic, unusual in its warmth for such a publicly painful divorce, clearly provided some stability for Colton and his brothers during their teenage and early adult years.

Education

No verified public source confirms details about Colton Jack’s educational background, including the schools he attended or whether he pursued any form of higher education. This detail has not been publicly disclosed by Colton, his parents, or any representative. Given that the family divided time between Florida and Colorado, it is plausible — though not confirmed — that his schooling took place in one or both of those states. His brother Nicholas has been publicly associated with a career in finance, suggesting some level of post-secondary education, but no such information exists in the verified record for Colton.

Family Timeline & Key Life Events

Relationships & Personal Life

Colton’s romantic life is not publicly documented beyond two brief glimpses. His mother mentioned, in an April 2013 tweet, that he was in a relationship with someone named Britt — the tweet was prompted by prom preparations — but no subsequent public information confirms whether that relationship continued. He was also photographed attending the 2012 Pro-Celebrity Tennis Classic Gala in Boca Raton with a female companion, whose identity was not publicly confirmed.

No verified public source confirms that Colton has married or has children. This detail has not been publicly disclosed. His brother Nicholas was the first of the three brothers to marry, with his wedding to Rebecca Mill in September 2022 drawing warm social media posts from Chris Evert, who called herself overjoyed and proud. Whether Colton has similarly settled down is simply not in the public record.

He does not maintain active public accounts on Instagram, Twitter, or any other major social media platform, which makes independent verification of his current relationship status impossible. For a person who came of age in the social media era, the absence of any digital footprint is itself a kind of statement. It also means that virtually everything reported about his personal life originates either from his mother’s posts or from speculation by entertainment news sources — and the latter should be treated with appropriate caution. The contrast with his siblings is informative: Alexander has at least some public presence through his athletic activities, and Nicholas features regularly in the Mill House podcast. Colton, by all available evidence, has made peace with being the family’s quiet one.

Public Image & Personality

What little can be gleaned about Colton’s personality comes through the lens of his mother’s public comments about her sons collectively. Chris Evert’s descriptions of her children have consistently emphasised their warmth and groundedness — “very kind and loving” being her recurring characterisation — and she has credited Andy Mill’s involvement for much of that. Evert once reflected on her parenting approach by saying she listened to her sons, let them push back on bedtime rules, and told them simply to “do their best” rather than imposing the competitive standard she had grown up with.

Whether or not Colton inherited his parents’ athletic genes is not documented. None of the three brothers pursued tennis or skiing professionally, though all played some tennis growing up. His preference for staying out of public life is the most consistent thing that can be said about him — and given the family he was born into, that preference required some active effort to maintain. He has accompanied his family to charitable galas over the years, including multiple appearances at the annual Pro-Celebrity Tennis Classic, suggesting that while he avoids individual publicity, he remains connected to family traditions and supports his mother’s charitable work.

His long, wavy hair has been noted in photographs — consistent enough across multiple years to be recognisable — though no physical measurements have been verified through public sources. Given the family’s well-known bond, it would be reasonable to conclude that Colton’s connection to both parents and brothers remains strong, even if he has chosen to keep that life entirely away from public documentation. You can read more about the dynamics of celebrity family life in our profile of Sandy Mahl, whose own experiences mirror some of these themes.

Financial Overview

Verified financial data for Colton Jack Mill personally has not been publicly disclosed. He has not been reported to hold any professional role, launch any business, or earn income from any publicly documented source. His career and earnings, if any, remain entirely private.

What is documented is the financial landscape of his immediate family. Chris Evert’s net worth has been reported by multiple sources as approximately $16 million, built primarily through her 20-year professional tennis career, her long-running work as an ESPN tennis analyst (a role she has held since 2011), her charitable work through the Evert Tennis Academy (which she co-runs with her brother John Evert in Florida), and a line of tennis and activewear. Andy Mill’s net worth has been cited by various sources in the range of $7–9 million, accumulated through his ski racing career, a two-decade broadcasting career across ESPN, NBC, ABC, and CBS, and his work in outdoor television and fly fishing.

It bears noting that multiple celebrity net worth websites publish figures for Colton’s personal wealth — figures that are entirely speculative and unsupported by any verified source. Given that he has not publicly disclosed an employer, a profession, a business venture, or any income stream, any specific number assigned to him represents a guess rather than a calculation. This article does not reproduce those figures as fact.

The Evert Family & Chris Evert’s Health Battle

Any biography touching on Colton Jack’s life in the 2020s cannot be separated from the health challenges that have surrounded his mother and shaped the family’s recent years. In December 2021, Chris Evert was diagnosed with Stage 1C ovarian cancer — discovered through a prophylactic surgery she pursued after learning that the BRCA1 genetic variant carried by her late sister Jeanne had been reclassified as a clearly pathogenic mutation. Jeanne Evert Dubin had died of ovarian cancer in 2020, and it was that tragedy that prompted Evert to pursue the genetic testing that identified her own risk.

Evert announced the diagnosis publicly in January 2022, underwent treatment including chemotherapy, and declared herself cancer-free in early 2023. The cancer returned later that same year, requiring further chemotherapy and surgery, before she was again declared free of the disease in mid-2024. On June 25, 2026 — just days before the publication of this article — Evert disclosed on social media that her ovarian cancer had returned for a third time. She announced that she had already undergone surgery and would be beginning chemotherapy in the coming weeks, and that she would be stepping back from her ESPN commentary commitments, including the 2026 Wimbledon tournament.

For Colton, his brothers, and the wider family, this has represented years of sustained emotional difficulty. Andy Mill was reportedly present with Evert during her first rounds of chemotherapy. After her second diagnosis in December 2023, Evert was photographed with one of her sons buzzing the last strands of her hair — a quietly intimate moment that found its way into public coverage. The family’s closeness, maintained through two divorces and now a recurring serious illness, is one of the more striking things about the Evert-Mill story when viewed across time. See also our coverage of health challenges and their impact on public figures for broader context on how celebrities manage long-term medical conditions in the public eye.

“In an age where the children of celebrities are almost expected to perform their lives online, Colton Jack Mill’s refusal to do so is, quietly, one of the most interesting things about him.”

Where Is Colton Jack Now? (Current Lifestyle & Status)

As of 2026, Colton Jack Mill is 29 years old. His current location, profession, and daily life are not publicly documented. He maintains no known active social media presence and has not given any interviews or appeared in any verified public capacity beyond the family events he has attended with his mother and brothers over the years.

What can be said with confidence is that he remains part of a close family unit. The Evert-Mill family has been photographed together at multiple charity galas associated with the Chris Evert/Raymond James Pro-Celebrity Tennis Classic in Boca Raton. The 2017 edition, for example, included a widely circulated photograph of Colton alongside his brothers, his father, and his mother — an image that demonstrates the continued post-divorce cohesion of the family rather than the fragmented aftermath that many such situations produce.

Given his mother’s current health situation, it is reasonable to assume that Colton, like his brothers, is likely maintaining close contact with the family. Chris Evert has, on multiple occasions, expressed how central her sons are to her life — describing them as her primary source of strength and pride. Whether Colton is based in Florida, Colorado, or elsewhere has not been confirmed through any public record.

Final Thoughts

The story of Colton Jack Mill is, in a sense, the story of what happens when extraordinary parental legacies produce a child who simply has no interest in inheriting the spotlight. His mother is one of the most accomplished athletes in American sports history. His father competed at two Winter Olympics and dominated his discipline for the better part of a decade. Between the two of them, Andy Mill and Chris Evert gave their youngest son access to a world most people never see — and he has apparently found his happiness somewhere quietly outside it.

That is not a failure. If anything, it is a mark of a certain psychological independence. The children of famous parents often feel pressure to perform their own versions of fame — to compete with, extend, or at minimum acknowledge the parental legacy in public ways. Colton’s consistent absence from public life across his entire adult life suggests he has worked out a different arrangement with the world, one that keeps him tethered to his family while shielding him from the particular cost of celebrity. Whether he will remain that private indefinitely or whether some future life event will bring him into focus is unknown. For now, the verified record ends here: born June 14, 1996, youngest son of an 18-time Grand Slam champion and a two-time Olympian, known to be close to his mother and brothers, and otherwise — by deliberate design — unknown.
