Throughout his marriage to his first wife, Hazel, Hawke was a heavy drinker. Hawke suffered from alcohol poisoning following the death of their infant son. Hawke carried on an extramarital affair with his biographer, Blanche d'Alpuget. Hawke left his wife for Blanche, a move which left him estranged from some of his family for a time.
