Overexposed by 2 stops. The highlights are blown out.
Another option would be to use Highlight Weighted Metering. It might look too dark at first but you can easily recover the shadow information while protecting the highlights when you develop from raw.

You’re right,it was quite dark. It ended up overblown, not one of my best.
A backlit subject is very difficult to capture without switching to manual.
You might need to use a low ISO setting so you can recover the dark parts of the image.
