Los Angeles: Hollywood actor Chris Evans, best known for his iconic role as Captain America in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, has officially stepped into a new role — that of a father. Evans and his wife, Portuguese actress Alba Baptista, have welcomed their first child, a baby girl named Alma Grace Baptista Evans.
According to a report by TMZ, the couple’s daughter was born on October 24, 2025, in Massachusetts. The pair, who tied the knot in 2023, kept their pregnancy completely private, leaving fans pleasantly surprised by the happy news.
A Private Journey to Parenthood
Evans and Baptista are known for guarding their personal lives from public attention, and true to form, they chose not to make any formal announcement about the pregnancy. However, speculation had been circulating for months.
Interestingly, Alba’s father, Luís Baptista, had subtly hinted at the news earlier this year. In a Father’s Day post from June, he wrote, “Thank you so much, dear Chris. Your turn is coming soon.” Fans now believe that message was a sweet nod to Evans’ impending fatherhood.
Evans’ Dream of a Family Comes True
The Avengers star has often spoken about his wish to settle down and start a family. In a 2022 interview with People magazine, Evans had said, “That’s exactly what I want — a wife, kids, and a family.” He reiterated the same sentiment in 2024, emphasizing how important family life was to him beyond the spotlight of Hollywood.
A Love That Defies Age
Evans, 43, and Baptista, 28, share a 15-year age gap, but their bond has only grown stronger since they met. Their relationship became public in late 2022, and they have since been admired for keeping things low-key and grounded despite global fame.
With the arrival of baby Alma Grace, the couple embarks on a beautiful new chapter — one that Evans has long been waiting for. Fans around the world are celebrating this heartwarming moment for their beloved “Captain America” and his family
