New York Comic Con is back, and this year’s guests of honor include Chris Evans, Ewan McGregor, Mary Elizabeth Winstead and Tom Hiddleston.

Evans attended the event on Saturday and confirmed his marriage with his new bride, Alba Baptista.

“I got married,” the Captain America star proudly said during his panel. “It was really, really great.”

He then went on to say that they had two wedding ceremonies: one in Cape Cod, Massachusetts, and the other in Portugal, where Baptista is from.

Although Evans described his wedding as “wonderful and beautiful,” he also said planning a wedding is “a lot.”

“For those of you who are married, you know it takes a lot out of you,” he added. “But now that we’re through that, we’ve just been enjoying life, gearing up for autumn, my favorite season. Now we’re just relaxing and enjoying life and reflecting.”

This announcement at the panel is the first public confirmation of Evans’ and Baptista’s marriage.

Reports of their marriage began a month ago and wedding guests reportedly had to sign NDAs and surrender their phones.

Though the newlyweds only confirmed their relationship with an Instagram Story early this year, dating rumors began in 2021 after Baptista followed Evans and his family members on social media, and were spotted holding hands in November 2022 as they walked around Central Park.
