Who is Chris Evans’ rumoured 25-year-old girlfriend Alba Baptista? The Portuguese actress stars on Netflix’s Warrior Nun, speaks 5 languages … and has plenty in common with the Marvel hunk
- The Captain America actor was recently named People’s Sexiest Man Alive – but, sorry fans, he’s taken – and a source told the magazine he’s ‘never been happier’
- Evans, 41, has previously been linked to A-listers from Selena Gomez to Jessica Biel, but Baptista is more low-key and is considered a rising star in Hollywood
Hollywood’s most eligible bachelor has just lost his title!
A source told People in early November that Marvel hunk Chris Evans is off the market. He has apparently been dating Portuguese actress Alba Baptista for over a year now – and “it’s serious”. The news comes after Evans was crowned People’s “Sexiest Man Alive” of 2022.
“They are in love and Chris has never been happier. His family and friends all adore her,” the source told the publication. Reps for Evans and Baptista are yet to address the speculation.
The news came as a shock to many as the The Gray Man star has been notoriously private about his love life. In his interview with People, however, he did admit that he wants to settle down with a wife and kids: “I love the idea of tradition and ceremony. I had a lot of that in my life, so the idea of creating that – I can’t think of anything better.”
So, who is this mysterious new lady who’s captured Captain America’s heart?
She plays the lead character in a Netflix show
The Lisbon-born beauty started acting when she was just 15 years old in her home country. She made her professional debut in the series Jardins Proibidos (2014–2015), which was followed by more Portuguese shows like A Impostora (2016) and Jogo Duplo (2017). Later, she scored her first English-language TV gig with the lead role in Netflix’s fantasy drama Warrior Nun (2020-2022).
