Just a few days ago, People magazine named Chris Evans the sexiest man alive. Now the magazine wants to know that the “Captain America” ??actor has been secretly dating for more than a year. His girlfriend is a fellow actress.

Marvel star Chris Evans, the new ‘Sexiest Man Alive’, has reportedly been in a relationship for more than a year. As an insider is said to have revealed, it should not just be a fleeting love affair for the “Captain America” ??actor.

The US magazine “People”, which recently awarded Evans the title of a male bombshell, now wants to know that the 41-year-old is said to be permanently taken. According to an anonymous source, Evans has been dating Portuguese actress Alba Baptista “for more than a year and it’s serious.” The two are therefore “in love and Chris has never been happier”. The actor’s family and friends are said to be obsessed with Baptista.

Spokespersons for the two film and television stars have so far left inquiries unanswered. Evans and his 16-year-old actress colleague have not yet commented on the rumours. And it’s also not clear if Evans will ever take a stand. He recently confirmed to the magazine that he would like to get married and become a father. But he also clarified: “Some things you only want for yourself, or just for my family and friends.”

Over the summer, at least, it didn’t sound like Evans had a partner. In an interview with “Shondaland” in July, when asked whether there was a special goal in his life that he was actively pursuing, he said: “The answer is that I’m very focused on finding a partner (…) , someone to live with.”

Evans has appeared in numerous major Hollywood productions and attracted countless fans to the box office, especially as a Marvel hero. Baptista may have caught the eye of many a series fan in the Netflix series “Warrior Nun”. The second season has just started on the streaming service.
