Fans were surprised at reports that A-list actor Chris Evans had tied the knot with girlfriend Alba Baptista at a private ceremony in Cape Cod, Massachusetts Saturday.

Baptista, 26, and Evans, 42, exchanged vows at a private estate with Hollywood stars such as Robert Downey Jr., Jeremy Renner and Chris Hemsworth in attendance, according to Page Six.

The wedding was ‘locked down tight’ as guests turned in their phones and signed NDAs ahead of the ceremony, a source told the outlet.

The couple had reportedly been together for nearly two years before the wedding.  

With that in mind, DailyMail.com is taking a closer look at the Lisbon, Portugal-born actress following her nuptials to the Captain America leading man.

Personal details 

Baptista is the daughter of a Brazilian engineer and Portuguese translator, and can speak in five languages: English, French, German, Portuguese and Spanish, according to iMDb.

She told W Magazine in August of 2022 that she attended ‘a really strict school that gave us a lot of discipline.’

Baptista added, ‘And consequently, you had to be spotless with your languages – very, very on point.’

Baptista had more than 737,000 followers on Instagram as of Sunday evening. 

Among the 631 accounts she follows includes Ariana DeBose, Johnny Depp, Zendaya, Anne Hathaway, Jamie Chung, Ana de Armas, Kaia Gerber, and her new brother-in-law – Chris’s younger brother Scott Evans.

Baptista also follows organizations such as Greenpeace and NASA; and companies including A24, Chanel, Prada and Vogue.

 Road to Hollywood

Baptista told the industry outlet Fade to Her in 2021 about her path to becoming an actress, saying she was recruited by a talent agent as a teen.

‘It happened by chance when I was fifteen,’ she said. ‘I was invited to an audition for a leading role in a film where the director simply asked me existentialist questions.’

She said the director ‘wanted to understand how [her] mind worked and processed philosophical information.

‘This approach made me fall in love with the idea of acting.’

Baptista said she desires ‘to discover new realities and possibilities at the reach of my own mind, to be in control of foreign emotions’ and ‘to simultaneously hide myself while giving myself fully.’

She added, ‘It still mesmerizes me to this day. Probably will my entire life.’

Kristina Tonteri-Young and Lorena Andrea were her costars on the Simon Barry-created series on the streamer, which was canceled late last year.

Baptista spoke about the series with Fade to Her, saying that ‘apart from it being an action and fantasy show, it’s a plot about female empowerment’ and ‘how girls, women, are stronger together.’

She added: ‘I’m proud of representing this mentality alongside my amazing cast members.’

Baptista has four projects coming out in the future, as they are in varying stages of production. They include Amelia’s Children, Borderline, Bodyhackers and Dulcineia.

Bachelor no more

Evans had been in a number of high-profile romances prior to Baptista, having dated Jessica Biel (who went on to wed Justin Timberlake) for five years; Minka Kelly and Jenny Slate.

He also had been briefly linked to actresses Emmy Rossum, Kate Bosworth, Dianna Agron and Christina Ricci, according to US Weekly. 

Evans last November was named People’s 2022 Sexiest Man Alive; he told the publication that he was looking forward to settling down after years of bachelorhood.

‘That’s absolutely something I want: wife, kids, building a family,’ the actor said. ‘When you read about most of the best artists, whether it’s actors, painters, writers, most of them [admit] it wasn’t the work they made [that they are most proud of], it was about the relationships; the families they created, the love they found, the love they shared.’

He said that his life experience supported the idea: ‘It’s also something through my long 41 years that also rings true.

‘Those things are the most important. 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.’
