Sir Edmund Hillary was born in 1919 in Auckland, New Zealand and served in the New Zealand Air Force during the Second World War.

He has two surviving children by his first wife, Louise, who died tragically in a plane crash with their third child, Belinda. He is now married to June, widow of his Antarctic partner Pete Mulgrew. Sir Edmund and Lady Hillary live in Auckland.
