As a gamer, I’d rephrase that as: “I, being a gamer, confessed my parable about proposing to my partner, Alba Baptista, who hails from Portugal, where we share our love story. I even went the extra mile by rehearsing my proposal in Portuguese for days. However, things didn’t quite go as planned! Now, everyone’s wondering what transpired.
Chris Evans says he ‘practiced all week’ to learn Portuguese to propose to Alba Baptista
Chris Evans gave an uncommon peek into his personal life, disclosing how he got ready to pop the question to his current spouse, Alba Baptista. During the New York City premiere of his upcoming movie Materialists on June 7, the actor opened up about his proposal experience when speaking with The Knot on the red carpet, sharing an intimate story behind the event.
In a TikTok video posted by the outlet, Evans revealed that since Baptista is of Portuguese origin, he decided to ask her to marry him in her native tongue. He mentioned, “Perhaps it’s not proper for me to share this. When I proposed to my wife, who happens to be Portuguese, I had learned how to ask ‘Will you marry me?’ in Portuguese after weeks of practice.
Even with all the planning, I found myself almost giving away my surprise during rehearsals. It was as if I’d been practicing so much that sometimes, while making breakfast or doing something else mundane, I’d start reciting my proposal lines without realizing it. I’d catch myself thinking, “Oh no! I might be revealing the secret!”
Despite my preparation, when the moment to propose finally arrived, nerves took over. I must admit, I think I messed up a bit. But even with that slip-up, I’m confident about what I did!
Despite generally avoiding public displays of their relationship, various sources revealed in November 2022 that they had been dating for more than a year. In September 2023, it was reported that Evans and Baptista got married secretly at a private ceremony in Cape Cod. However, the couple didn’t issue an official statement. Later on, in October 2023, Evans officially acknowledged their marriage during his visit to New York Comic Con.
