Chris Evans, 44, Commands Attention in a Sleek All-Black Look at the 98th Oscars
Chris Evans and Alba Baptista made their Oscars debut on March 15, marking a glamorous moment for the couple just months after welcoming their first child. The 44-year-old Marvel star and his 28-year-old wife walked the red carpet together at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood, showing off coordinated, elegant looks.
Evans wore a navy Giorgio Armani tuxedo with a classic bow tie, black sunglasses, and accessorized with a Chopard rose gold watch and cufflinks. Baptista complemented him in a silver off-the-shoulder floor-length gown. She added sparkle with a sapphire and diamond Chopard necklace, matching rings, and earrings, creating a stunning, polished ensemble.
The couple celebrated the arrival of their daughter, Alma Grace Baptista Evans, in October 2025 in Massachusetts. A source claim, “They’re enjoying their privacy and these special first few days as a family with their baby.” The insider also shared that Evans is completely smitten with fatherhood, adding, “He’s been soaking in every quiet moment and couldn’t be more proud to be a girl dad.”

While this Oscars marked their first appearance together at Hollywood’s biggest night, Evans and Baptista were seen mingling at Vanity Fair’s 2024 afterparty, where he wore a bold red suit and she wore a strapless black-and-white gown.
They have kept their relationship largely private, though sources confirmed to PEOPLE that they had been dating for over a year by November 2022 and tied the knot in September 2023 at a private Cape Cod estate. At the time, Evans said, “That’s absolutely something I want: wife, kids, building a family.”
