Chris Evans and Alba Baptista Welcome Their First Child

Chris Evans and his wife, Alba Baptista, have welcomed their first child, a daughter named Alma Grace Baptista Evans. The couple, who have maintained a low profile regarding their personal life, reportedly celebrated this joyous occasion on Friday in Massachusetts. Multiple publications, including TMZ, have confirmed the news, although no official announcements have been made.

The couple’s relationship has been shrouded in privacy since rumors of their dating began in late 2022. A source close to PEOPLE stated they had been together for over a year and that their relationship was serious. During his recognition as PEOPLE’s 2022 Sexiest Man Alive, Evans expressed his desire to start a family, stating, “That’s absolutely something I want: wife, kids, building a family.”

In September 2023, Evans and Baptista tied the knot in a private ceremony. The actor revealed during a panel at the 2023 New York Comic Con that they had two ceremonies, one on the East Coast and another in Portugal. He described the planning process as “a lot,” but emphasized that both events were “wonderful and beautiful.”

Evans has enjoyed a remarkable career, most notably portraying two iconic Marvel superheroes. He first starred as Johnny Storm in the Fantastic Four films and rose to fame as Captain America, beginning with Captain America: The First Avenger in 2011. Following his character’s conclusion in Avengers: Endgame, Evans has explored various genres, featuring in films such as Ghosted, Red One, and Materialists. He also made a brief return as Johnny Storm in the upcoming Deadpool & Wolverine film.

Alba Baptista, a talented Portuguese actress, is best known for her role in Netflix’s Warrior Nun. She has also appeared in Mrs. Harris Goes to Paris and Magnetick Pathways. With the arrival of their daughter, all original Avengers actors have now become parents, marking a new chapter in their lives.

As the couple embarks on this exciting journey of parenthood, fans are eager to see how their personal lives will evolve alongside their successful careers.
