Dodger, who was originally named Benny, was adopted by Evans from a shelter. "That's the name the shelter gave him when he came in as a stray," Evans said of the name Benny. "He was there for about a month.
That's right – Chris Evans, Marvel's Americana hero, is a doting pet parent and a total pushover when it comes to his dog Dodger. “He throws one cute look and I'm very forgiving,” Evans told USA TODAY. A lifelong pet-owner, he's particularly fond of having a canine companion.
Evans married Carol McGiffin in 1991. Their 1993 break up was not amicable and the two divorced in 1998. McGiffin was scathing about Evans in newspaper articles as late as 2003.
The rumors are true: Chris Evans and Alba Baptista are married — twice over, actually. During a panel at New York Comic-Con, the “Captain America” actor, 42, revealed that he and Baptista, 26, had two ceremonies, one in America and one in Baptista's native Portugal.
Before we go, FYI, Chris also has a tattoo on the back of his leg that we tragically don't have a picture of due to him choosing to wear pants most of the time (can't relate). It says “SCS,” aka the initials of his siblings, Carly Evans, Shanna Evans, and Scott Evans.

There is no stronger bond than that of a human and their pup — and Chris Evans and his dog, Dodger, are prime examples of this dynamic. The Avengers star first met his sweet mixed-breed boxer around the time he was filming his 2017's Gifted.
Chris Evans is enjoying life as a newlywed, and he's ready to let the world know. On Saturday, the former Avengers star confirmed to a crowd at New York City Comic Con that he recently married his girlfriend of two years, Alba Baptista, in two secret wedding ceremonies.
Evans played in the National Hockey League with the Toronto Maple Leafs, Buffalo Sabres, St. Louis Blues, Detroit Red Wings, and Kansas City Scouts. He played in the World Hockey Association with the Calgary Cowboys, Birmingham Bulls, and Quebec Nordiques. In his NHL career, Evans appeared in 204 games.
The East Coast wedding he was referring to reportedly took place in early September at a private estate in Cape Cod, Mass. Evans' Marvel co-stars, including Robert Downey Jr. (Iron Man), Chris Hemsworth (Thor), Jeremy Renner (Hawkeye) and Scarlett Johansson (Black Widow) were said to be among the guests.
The actor told Yahoo Entertainment he's lost about 15 pounds since playing the characters. "Every time people see me, they're like, 'You OK? You lost a bit of weight,'" Evans said.
Though they called it quits in 2006, the 7th Heaven alum had high hopes for their future together. "We always talk about [marriage].
