According to Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hawking_radiation ) Hawking Radiation has never been observed in nature - this does not mean it does not exist. From the same article there is no mention of it being in conflict with Einstein's theory of relativity. Relativity ,too, was considered controversial until it was confirmed (the bending of starlight) by Eddington's experimental verification in the 1919 total eclipse of the sun.
