Elwes descends from a staunchly Roman Catholic recusant family (originally known as the "Cary-Elwes" family, but now many branches of the family are now simply known as "Elwes") which includes noted British monks and bishops, such as Dom Columba Elwes, Archbishop Dudley Cary-Elwes and Father Luke Cary-Elwes. His artist father, Dominic Evelyn Bede Elwes, had moved in the circles of high society (and been friends with Lord Lucan and Lady Annabel Goldsmith to whom he was also related) before he took his own life. Cary's mother, Tessa Kennedy, who eloped with Elwes in 1957 to great scandal, is of Anglo-Irish and Serbo-Croatian extraction. She is married to Hollywood executive Elliott Kastner.
