Best Answer
We don't know.
The mystery around Tim and what he knows is a plot device, because:
his role in the death of the Prices in concealed from us until the end of this episode.
Hints are dropped during Episode 8 that Tim found out about the affair either while he was away, or immediately upon returning.
Tim behaves darkly towards Evan during a court scene, and then has the following exchange with Alex:
ALEX: Evan could take over your caseload.
TIM: He's very - You know Evan?
ALEX: I do.
TIM: A very charming man. Very, er, charming.
When Alex arrives at the Price house to make an arrest, she overhears part of a conversation reflecting some sort of difficulty in the Prices' marriage:
CAROLINE: Tim, all I'm saying is, sometimes people have to move on.
That's all.
TIM: When you walked into the common room that first morning, I
felt we'd be together forever. I was 18.
CAROLINE: We're not undergraduates any more. We change or we die.
TIM: Forever and ever.
