The actress must look familiar to you.

2023 has been filled with celebrity divorces so far. Naturally, it doesn't seem to be the best year for love, but as the saying goes, love conquers all, and some Hollywood stars can't help but succumb to it.

Just like that, Chris Evans, also known as 'the sexiest man alive' and star of the extended Marvel Universe franchises, recently got married to Alba Baptista. The wedding was kept a secret. Now it is the ultimate talk of the town. But what do we know about Evans' new wife?

Alba has been in the business since she was 16

Alba Baptista is a young Portuguese actress who has already made her mark in cinema and television. Born in Lisbon in July 1997, she's now twenty-six years old. Alba is said to be fluent in a number of European languages, including her native Portuguese and English, which is not surprising since her mother is a translator.

Baptista's first role came when she was only sixteen. She played Raquel in Miami, a short film by Simão Cayatte. Since then, the actress has appeared in a number of films and on several TV shows and telenovelas. However, she is best known to English-speaking audiences for one particular role.

Alba Baptista Starred in Netflix's Warrior Nun

Released in 2020, this Netflix show made quite a splash with its unconventional use of a religious narrative in the context of a young adult martial arts fantasy drama. Starring Alba Baptista as main character Ava Silva, Warrior Nun ran for two seasons before being canceled by the streaming service in late 2022.

Just last month, however, it was announced that Warrior Nun would be rebooted as a trilogy of films. No word yet on whether Baptista will reprise her role.

Alba's Other Notable Roles and Net Worth

In 2022, Alba Baptista played Natasha in Mrs. Harris Goes to Paris, a British historical comedy-drama that you should definitely check out if you haven't already! Since the actress' other roles aren't as prominent, her net worth isn't as high compared to her famous husband.

Baptista is estimated to be worth $1 million. Since she is sure to have many more roles in the near future, this figure is expected to grow exponentially.
