10 Celebrity Relationships That Stayed Surprisingly Private (3 of 6)

7. Dakota Johnson and Chris Martin

Chris Martin and Fifty Shades star Dakota Johnson started dating in 2017 but were able to keep their relationship on the down low for eight freakin’ years! It wasn’t until their breakup in 2025 that fans were left asking, “Hold on. Chrisota was a thing?” Yep. Not only that, they were even engaged for much of that time. Their choice to keep the relationship under the radar stood in sharp contrast to Martin’s previous high-profile marriage to Gwyneth Paltrow.

6. Chris Evans and Alba Baptista

Marvel’s Captain America kept his romance with Portuguese actress Alba Baptista largely out of the spotlight until the two announced their marriage in 2023. While rumors swirled in 2022, the couple’s courtship was mostly pieced together from rare social media posts and a few public appearances. The couple now reportedly enjoys a quiet life in Massachusetts, a lifestyle Evan has embraced that is far removed from all that Hollywood chaos.
