On June 2, 2016, Roberts was hit by a New York City taxi while out on a sick day, fracturing his L1 vertebra, which caused a flare up of his psoriasis and asthma.

Roberts' wife gave birth to a boy, Jet Alexander Roberts, on September 11, 2016.

Roberts grew up in Cedarhurst, New York and graduated from Lawrence High School in 2001.

Roberts' career began at the age of 10 when he had an opportunity to do updates for WFAN's Imus in the Morning radio program. He then hosted his own radio show called Kidsports on WGBB and expanded it to a wider kids audience with a show called Going Bzircus; a few years later, he hosted "What's Up With Evan Roberts" and Nets Slammin' Planet with Albert King and Brandon "Scoop B" Robinson for the now-defunct Radio AAHS (later AAHS World Radio) children's radio network. In 1996, Roberts played "Boy Dancing in Field with Father Lawrence" in the film Tromeo & Juliet. In 1997, Roberts played a role in the Howard Stern's movie autobiography Private Parts as Elliot. After graduating from high school he worked for XM Satellite Radio in Washington, D.C. for 2 years. In 2003 and 2004, he worked for WJFK in Baltimore, Maryland and then moved back to New York to host his own show on Maxim Radio, a channel on Sirius Satellite Radio.
