A few months ago it was revealed that Chris Evans was in a relationship with Alba Baptista, a 25-year-old Portuguese interpreter. The 41-year-old actor, who played Captain America, is very secretive about his private life and that’s why a recent post caught the attention of his followers.
On his official Instagram account, Evans shared a video summarizing many of the jokes being made with Alba. The clip, which he uploaded to his stories, shows the two joking around in their everyday lives, accompanied by their dog, Dodger.
In November 2022, when the dating versions surfaced, the Lightyear actor was the protagonist of the confirmed rumors. “It’s been over a year and it’s serious,” a source close to the two told People magazine. “They are in love and Chris has never been happier. All of her family and friends adore her,” the person added.
Baptista, 25, was born on July 10, 1997 in Lisbon, Portugal. He made his acting debut in 2014 when he starred in the soap opera Jardins Proibidos in his native country. After a successful career in Europe starring in numerous critically and publicly acclaimed films such as Edgar Pêra’s Caminhos Magnétykos and Ivo Ferreira’s Equinócio, she moved to the United States to further her career.
The young woman speaks five languages (Portuguese, Spanish, English, German and French) and is the daughter of a Brazilian engineer and a Portuguese translator. In addition to her passion for acting, she also has a caring side. In 2018 he did extensive humanitarian work at a Cambodian orphanage with a focus on education.
In 2020, she landed a role that made her world star when she was cast to star in the Netflix series Warrior Nun. Also that year, he was part of the cast of the film “Mrs. Harris Goes to Paris” in which he shares the bill with Lesley Manville, Isabelle Huppert, Lambert Wilson, Lucas Bravo, Ellen Thomas, Rose Williams and Jason Isaacs.
Recently, Evans has asserted that he intends to start a family of his own. “That’s something I really want: a wife, kids, starting a family,” the actor said. “When you read about the history of the greatest artists, be they actors, painters or writers, most of them admit that their greatest pride was not the work they did but the relationships: the families they started “So it’s something that also rings true in my long 41 years. Those things are the most important things,” he said in a thoughtful tone “I love the idea of tradition and ceremony. I’ve had a lot of that in my life, so when I think of the idea of creating that…I can’t think of anything better.”
For his part, the actor, who recently starred in Lightyear, the Pixar film, or The Gray Man, produced by Netflix, is much more comfortable talking about his career than his talent as a lover. In fact, after a 22-year career, Evans began retiring from the industry to spend more time with his family in Boston. “When looking for the characters I’m playing, it’s more about where the film is being shot. I’m too old to live out of a suitcase for half a year and I’ve settled into a nicer phase where I’m happy to be at home.”
