Well, apparently we can stop calling ourselves “Mrs. Chris Evans” in our family group text chains (for now, at least … ). Chris Evans took to his Instagram stories on Valentine’s Day to share a montage of his girlfriend, Alba Baptista … and it is, despite our begrudging envy, terribly cute. Composed of selfies of the duo, Baptista with Evans’ beloved dog Dodger, and a video of Evans teaching her to play “Super Mario Bros. 3,” it’s clear that the “Knives Out” star thoroughly planned his loving tribute. “She hates this video, but I LOVE it,” Evans wrote about introducing Baptista to “Super Mario Bros 3.” Aww, they have inside jokes already. It’s cool, we’re definitely not crying.
While Evans took time off from the dating scene after his March 2018 split from “Saturday Night Live” alum Jenny Slate, it comes as no surprise that he enjoys domestication so much. After all, the man himself has been vocal about wanting a family of his own. “I really want kids,” he told Men’s Journal in 2019. “I like pretty pedestrian, domestic things … I like ceremony. I want to carve pumpkins and decorate Christmas trees and s*** like that.” By July 2022 (at which point he and Baptista were already a thing), the actor and director told Shonda Rhimes’ “Shondaland” that he was “laser-focused on finding a partner … to live with.”

All jokes aside, we wish Albis (new couple name?) the best of luck!
