Newlyweds Chris Evans & Alba Baptista To Have 2nd Nuptials & Honeymoon In Portugal

Chris Evans and his new wife, Alba Baptista, are preparing for their second trip down the aisle!

Days after becoming the latest Mr. and Mrs. in town, sources revealed the adorable couple are going to Portugal. The pair plan their second European wedding surrounded by the "Warrior Nun" actress's loved ones.

The dynamic duo first tied the knot in an intimate ceremony in Cape Cod on Saturday, September 9. Although the "Captain America: The First Avenger" star's guests attended the event, some of his lover's relatives could not make the trip.

The Marvel star and his wife's honeymoon has been briefly delayed to accommodate their second nuptials in the actress's homeland. The Portuguese beauty shall be jetting home with her beau to commemorate her vows in the presence of her relatives.

A source spilled the tea to PageSix, the couple's plans scheduled to take place sooner than expected. "There is going to be a second gathering in Portugal for members of Alba's family who couldn't be in Massachusetts," the insider claimed.

"Sometime this week, I believe. Then they'll depart from Portugal for their honeymoon," the informant added. Given the spouses' interest in keeping their relationship low-key, it is safe to believe their second wedding would be a private event like their first ceremony.

As stated, news of the duo's plans to say their second vows came days after they tied the knot in an intimate event at their Boston-area home. The entertainers invited their closest family and friends to the occasion but ensured no one would share the big news.

According to a source, guests had to sign NDAs and hand in their cell phones as part of the couple's goal to have their wedding "locked down tight." Several of Evans' Marvel co-stars, like Jeremy Renner, Robert Downey Jr., Scarlett Johansson, and Chris Hemsworth, were among the attendees, among other celebrities.

Although the TV personalities' Cape Cod ceremony was a cause for celebration, the internet had mixed reactions to the couple's happiness. Fans were divided in a heated debate about the lovebirds' 16-year age gap, with many displeased by the actor's interest in a younger woman.

"Chris Evans has said he's wanted a family for years, then he gets a girlfriend who's 16 years younger and still of age to start a family (as opposed to him), the wedding seems rushed, and she's new in the industry and just starting up her career, this feels extremely icky to me," a social media user lamented.

Another upset fan wrote: "All I'm saying is when Priyanka Chopra married Nick Jonas, people call her "grandma" and all that stuff since she's 11 years older than him. But when it's Chris Evans marrying a woman who is 16 years his junior, the age gap doesn't matter. Make it make sense, come on!"

Although many criticized the "Knives Out" actor, some followers defended his decision. "Y'all making Chris Evans look like he's a predator for marrying someone younger than him… dude's dating history has always been with women close to his age. There's no pattern here; he isn't no Leonardo Dicaprio. Plus, that lady is grown asf," a supporter claimed.

The claims of NDAs at Evans and Baptista's wedding were not farfetched as the lovebirds have kept a tight lid on their relationship. The duo first sparked romance rumors in January 2022. However, tales of their love did not make waves until a source confirmed their relationship last November.

According to the insider, the pair had been dating "for over a year, and it's serious. They are in love, and Chris has never been happier." The informant added, "His family and friends all adore her."

Since the cat was out of the bag, the "Not Another Teen Movie" star decided to go Instagram official with his lover. On January 6, 2023, the Boston native reflected on his romance with a recap of their favorite moments from the previous year.

The 42-year-old shared a video compilation of the hilarious pranks he and Baptista had pulled on each other. The duo also appeared on the Hollywood hunk's Instagram page on Valentine's Day with a heartwarming carousel of their blossoming relationship.
