The pair were at home together watching afternoon TV when Evans became furious when Jackie refused his offer of a cup of tea.He picked up a knife and plunged it into her neck, leaving her to die in a pool of blood on her living room floor.
The couple's son Carl found her body and ran out of the house shouting: 'My mother is stretched out. My father has stabbed my mother.'

Evans told police he and his wife had a 'silly row' over a cup of tea and he picked up a lock-knife to frighten her.
Swansea Crown Court heard Jackie suffered four deep stab wounds to the throat, one even penetrating the upper spine.
Evans, of Pontyberem, Carmarthenshire, denied murder claiming his wife's behaviour had made him lose control.
