Congratulations are reportedly in order for Chris Evans and Alba Baptista!

According to PEOPLE, the beloved Captain America actor and the 26-year-old Portuguese actress tied the knot during an intimate ceremony over the weekend.

The publication reported that the two actors said "I do" in Massachusetts at their Boston-area home, while Page Six claimed the nuptials were "locked down tight," as guests were made to sign non-disclosure agreements.

Many of the couple's famous friends attended the wedding, including Evans' Marvel costars Robert Downey Jr. and his wife, Susan Downey; Chris Hemsworth and his wife, Elsa Pataky, and Jeremy Renner, plus John Krasinski and Emily Blunt.

Upon hearing the exciting wedding news, some fans have taken to social media to mourn the loss of Hollywood's most eligible bachelor.

One upset user wrote: "I JUST WOKE UP FROM A NAP WHAT DO YOU MEAN CHRIS EVANS IS MARRIED?" and included a video of a woman crying while eating salad.

Another equally sad person said: "It’s a sad day for us Chris Evans girlies! Happy for him BUT DAMN. Should’ve been me."

A third commented: "Just saw someone post that Chris Evans got married. No one talk to me."

Meanwhile, others have sent their congratulations to the happy couple, with one loyal supporter penning: "I am very happy for them and I wish them the best. What a thrill to see Chris fulfilling his dreams with the woman of his life."

A second user commented: "OMG CHRIS EVANS GOT MARRIED??? I'm so happy for himmm I know he's wanted to be settled down for the longest time so this is really huge!!"

A third added: "So happy for Chris Evans he finally found what he always wanted and that made me so happy."

The Knives Out star and Warrior Nun actress first sparked romance rumors in November 2022, when they were spotted walking together in New York City.

At the time, a source told PEOPLE magazine that the actors were "in love and Chris has never been happier," adding: "His family and friends all adore her." The report also stated that the secret love affair has been going on for "over a year and it's serious."

In January this year, Evans made his relationship with the young actress official by posting a video montage of the duo pranking each other.

The clip began with Evans' back turned away from the camera as he's doing laundry before Baptista screamed while filming him. In response, he jumped up and shouted before laughing at the camera. The next clip then showed him scaring his then-girlfriend as she walked through a living room, causing her to drop her phone.

While the two lovebirds have kept quiet about their romance, the Fantastic Four actor opened up about wanting to get married last November.

"That’s absolutely something I want - wife, kids, building a family," he told the outlet at the time. "When you read about most of the best artists, whether it’s actors, painters, writers, most of them [admit] it wasn’t the work they made [that they are most proud of], it was about the relationships, the families they created, the love they found, the love they shared."

He continued: "So it’s also something through my long 41 years that also rings true. Those things are the most important. I love the idea of tradition and ceremony, I had a lot of that in my life so the idea of creating that, I can’t think of anything better."

Once again, congratulations to Evans and Baptista!
