Chris Evans and Wife Alba Baptista Welcome Their First Child Together

Chris Evans has officially become a father. The Captain America star and his wife, Portuguese actress Alba Baptista, have quietly welcomed their first child together, according to multiple reports from People and Elle.

Sources close to the couple said the baby was born in Massachusetts in late October. The pair have not shared any official statement or public confirmation, which fits the private way they have managed their relationship from the start.

Evans and Baptista, who tied the knot in September 2023 during an intimate ceremony on Cape Cod, have built a life that rarely crosses into the public eye. Their wedding, attended by family and close friends, reflected their preference for keeping personal moments off the record.

According to Elle, the couple’s baby girl has reportedly been named ‘Alma Grace’ Baptista Evans, a name that honors Baptista’s Portuguese heritage. In Portuguese, “Alma” means “soul.” While the couple has not confirmed the name publicly, several reliable outlets have cited the detail.

For Evans, fatherhood fulfills a goal he has spoken about for years. In a 2019 interview with Men’s Journal, he shared his desire to prioritize relationships and family over a non-stop career. “When people talk about regrets, it’s usually not spending enough time with loved ones,” he said.

Baptista, known for her lead role in Netflix’s Warrior Nun, has built an international career that spans both European and American productions. She is fluent in several languages and is often described by colleagues as focused and thoughtful, qualities that mirror the way she handles fame.

Those close to the couple describe them as grounded and reserved, preferring to keep their lives private rather than embrace constant exposure. There have been no official photos, social media posts, or interviews about the baby. For now, it appears they are enjoying the early days of parenthood in peace.

Professionally, both actors are in a comfortable stage. Evans has hinted at taking fewer projects to make room for personal life, while Baptista continues to select roles that reflect her growing global presence.

At this point, the couple seems content focusing on home life in Massachusetts, far from studio sets and premieres. Whether they decide to share more with the public or continue to keep things private, one thing is certain: the Evans family has entered a brand-new chapter.
