The good news fans have been waiting for is finally here, Chris Evans is officially a dad! The Captain America star has welcomed his first child with wife Alba Baptista, and it’s a baby girl. According to reports by TMZ, the couple became parents on October 25 in Massachusetts, USA, and have named their daughter Alma Grace.

Chris Evans and Alba Baptista tied the knot on September 9, 2023, in an intimate wedding held in Cape Cod, surrounded by close friends and family. Although they had been together for years, they made their relationship Instagram official just nine months before the wedding, delighting fans all over the world.
On the career front, Chris was last seen in Materialists, a romantic comedy co-starring Dakota Johnson and Pedro Pascal. He’s also rumoured to make a comeback in Marvel’s Avengers: Doomsday, though no official confirmation has been made yet.
Alba, a talented Portuguese actor, appeared in the 2025 comedy thriller Borderline and will soon be seen in Mother Mary and Voltron.
For now, the couple seems focused on enjoying their new chapter as parents. Fans everywhere are showering them with love, thrilled to see Chris Evans, everyone’s favourite superhero, stepping into his newest and sweetest role yet: dad.
