Chris Evans may be the sexiest man alive in 2022 according to People, but unfortunately for single ladies, he's already taken. According to the same source, he has been dating Portuguese actress Alba Baptista for over a year. Baptista is best known for her role in the Netflix series “Warrior Nun.”
In an interview for the cover of an entertainment magazine commemorating his upcoming coronation, the 41-year-old actor said, “Marriage and fatherhood is absolutely something I want.” In addition, a source claims that he and the 25-year-old “are in love” and that the Bostonian “has never been happier.”
Who is Alba Baptista?
She made her acting debut on the Portuguese soap opera Jardins Proibidos. Alba Baptista was born on July 10, 1997. The public may recognize her from her appearances in Fatima and Warrior Nun on Netflix.
Baptista tells GLAMOUR, “I was the final character to be filled since they were initially going in a different path and then they altered everything,” explaining how she was cast in the Lesley Manville-led Mrs. Harris Goes to Paris.
I still vividly recall reading the script for the first time and being completely enamored. The director and I met over Zoom, so there wasn't even an audition. There was a deeply personal connection between us, and our chat was great.
In her 410,000 followers' feeds, she regularly shares updates about her life and photos.
