You start with the belief that evolution is fact and that life arose from non-life here on Earth. Logically following would be that life spontaneously popped up elsewhere in the universe.
If by
spontaneously you mean according to the laws of physics and chemistry operating in the environment similar to that of the early earth, then sure. But we would expect this to have happened in places where the conditions were similar to that of the early earth.

Life has never been observed elsewhere in the universe.
No, life has never been observed where we've so far looked in our corner of the universe. Basically in our Solar System. That's a pretty small fraction of the entire universe.
