Chris Evans and Alba Baptista are ready for their close-up.
On March 10 the notoriously private newlyweds made their red-carpet debut at the 2024 Vanity Fair Oscar Party, which also marks their first public appearance as a couple. Baptiste, 26, looked stunning in a strapless black-and-white gown with an Old Hollywood inspired updo, while Evans, 42, went for an atypical red suit from Dolce & Gabbana for the black-tie event.
These types of relationship milestones usually happen before a famous couple gets hitched, but the pair looked very comfortable as they posed for the cameras with their arms wrapped around each other.
Chris Evans and Alba Baptista were first linked in November 2022 when they were spotted holding hands during a walk in Central Park. According to People, the pair had already been dating for “over a year.” And while they don’t hide their affection for one another, they definitely don’t put their relationship on blast. Aside from a couple of paparazzi photos, the Warrior Nun actor has only made a couple appearances in Evans’s Instagram Stories over the years, starting with that famed prank video, which went over poorly with some of his more intense stans.
This public debut comes six months after the pair tied the knot in Cape Cod in September 2023, which Evans confirmed a month later by showing up to New York Comic Con with a ring on his finger. “We kind of had two ceremonies. We had one on the East Coast, we did one in Portugal — my wife’s Portuguese,” he told the crowd, per Page Six. “But they were just… wonderful and beautiful. It’s a lot planning a wedding — for those of you who are married, you know, it takes a lot out of you.”
He continued, “But now that we’re through that, we’ve just kind of been enjoying life, gearing up for autumn—my favourite season. It’s, like, the best time of year right now. Now we’re just relaxing and enjoying life and reflecting.”
