Chris Evans, 44, Dominates the Oscars in a Sharp Black Ensemble That Radiates Danger and Desire
Chris Evans and his wife Alba Baptista turned heads at the 98th Academy Awards on March 15, marking their first Oscars appearance as a couple. The pair attended the ceremony at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood looking picture-perfect in coordinated formal wear.
Evans, 44, opted for a sleek navy Giorgio Armani tuxedo, complete with a bow tie, sunglasses, and rose gold accessories by Chopard. Baptista, 28, complemented him in a silver off-the-shoulder floor-length gown, paired with a sapphire and diamond Chopard necklace and matching earrings. Together, they presented a polished and glamorous image on the red carpet.
This appearance comes just months after the couple welcomed their first child, a daughter named Alma Grace Baptista Evans, on October 24, 2025. A source said, “They’re enjoying their privacy and these special first few days as a family with their baby.” Another insider added, “He’s been soaking in every quiet moment and couldn’t be more proud to be a girl dad.”

Evans and Baptista have kept much of their relationship private. They started dating in 2022 and tied the knot in September 2023 at a private estate in Cape Cod, Massachusetts. Evans had previously shared his desire to settle down and build a family, saying, “That’s absolutely something I want: wife, kids, building a family.”
