Jessica Alba and Cash Warren Divorce After 16 Years of Marriage: Report

Jessica Alba and her husband Cash Warren have reportedly split up.

TMZ reports that the two are nearing a divorce after 16 years of marriage.

Alba’s representative did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Alba, 43, and Warren, 45, first met in Vancouver in 2004 on the set of the superhero movie Fantastic four. The actress played Sue Storm, while Warren worked as an assistant director.

They married on May 19, 2008, and have three children together: daughters Honor, 16, and Haven, 13, plus son Hayes, 7.

The couple put on a joint front to celebrate son Hayes’ 7th birthday earlier in January. In a cryptic message on New Year’s EveAlba wrote that her 2024 was “filled with connection, growth, adventure, laughter, peace, sisterhood, transformation, rebirth, joy and so much love.”

In September 2021, the Honest Company founder spoke with PEOPLE about building her business empire, parenthood and her marriage to Warren. She said at the time that they would both share their individual needs to prioritize their relationship.

“At different times, there were different things that we needed. Around the time I had the kids, it was like, ‘I need (date night) once a week.’ And he’s been like, ‘I need you to be around on the weekend and not work,” she said, explaining that they would often “overcommunicate what’s going on before it gets to the point of no return.”

“I don’t think we have a secret at all,” Alba added. “We just need to check on each other.”

In July 2021, Alba got candid about juggling parenting responsibilities and her marriage in a conversation on Katherine Schwarzenegger Pratt’s Instagram series Before, during and after baby.

“I think he’s probably getting the short end of the stick. And it’s not even him, I’d say, it’s us,” she said at the time. “When I see him and spend time with him and we really enjoy each other, it’s an ‘us’ thing and it feeds me too. It’s hard. It’s impossible.”

“It’s all rosy for two and a half years. But then after that you become roommates,” the Sin City the actress added, laughing. “You just go through the cases. You’re in charge; it’s a lot, like checking the boxes, isn’t it?”

She said they used to “at least” have weekly date nights, “but then it stops because of whatever.”

As Alba explained, “We’re just not consistent. But being able to communicate when you’re unhappy and snap it up right away instead of letting it kind of fester and then you have animosity, and then it explodes – which we’re gone through it!”

“Obviously we have the friendship, the comfort of ‘You’re not going anywhere,’ so sometimes you don’t treat these people the best. You don’t consider their feelings the way you would consider other people’s feelings,” she said. “It’s something I think is a constant one to work on.”

Alba added: “It’s a life journey, and if you both decide every day to do it, no matter the drama, no matter what happens, it will work out.”

The actress shared a post on Instagram filled with photos of the couple throughout their 16 years of marriage to celebrate their anniversary in May 2024.

“I’m proud of us for making it this far. There is no real set of rules or guidance that can ever prepare you for what it means to commit to another person and choose to be family,” wrote she.

Alba continued: “Through thick and thin, we’ve always found our way back to each other and have chosen each other.”
