“Never ever” it could be translated as NUNCA... we don’t translate EVEr in this example 😊

"Ever" can mean "Jamais"/ Já".
In your sentence we could translate it as "Nunca Jamais" or simply "Nunca".
Take at look a couple of examples:
1- Have you ever been in/to Brazil?
(Você JÁ esteve no Brasil?)
2- I've never said it/that
(Eu JAMAIS/NUNCA disso isso)
3- I've ever tried shrimp
(Eu JÁ provei/experimentei camarão)
4- I've never ever kissed her
(Eu NUNCA /JAMAIS beijei ela)
Note: Jamais is emphasizing the fact along with 'Never'
To my ears Jamais sounds stronger than "never".
Keep in mind that you can use Jamais/Nunca interchangeably, but there are always exceptions.
'Ever' will almost always mean 'Já'

Such emphasis could be given like this in Portuguese:
“Eu nunca beijei ela.”
“I've never kissed her.”
“Eu nunca, mas nunca beijei ela.”
“Eu nunca beijei ela, nunca mesmo.”
“I've never ever kissed her.”
