According to Wikipedia,

The diagnosis of motor neurone disease came when Hawking was 21, shortly before his first marriage, and doctors said he would not survive more than two or three years.

He's been married and divorced twice, has 4 kids.

Funny enough, Hawking occasionally lives in my neighbourhood (we have an institute here where he holds a position and is in residence there sometimes).
