Hollywood actress Jessica Alba and Cash Warren are reportedly heading for divorce after nearly 17 years of marriage. The two most recently spent the Christmas holidays together with their three children: Honor, 16, Haven, 13, and Hayes, 7.

The pair have been one of Hollywood's most enduring relationships after tying the knot in 2008, but TMZ has now reported that the couple are separated and are moving forward with divorce. While the reason is still unclear, both Jessica and Cash have been spotted out in recent times without their wedding rings, with Jessica having recently attended a pre-Golden Globes party last Saturday without a ring on her finger.

While it appears divorce is imminent, the two seem to be on talking terms with Jessica uploading a family photo only five days ago celebrating their son Hayes' 7th birthday, with Hayes turning 7 on December 31.

The couple have known each other for over 20 years, after meeting on the set of Fantastic Four in 2004, with Jessica starring in the movie and Cash working as a director's assistant. They got engaged in 2007, before marrying in 2008 when Jessica was pregnant with Honor.

Cash revealed in 2023 that the couple had briefly split four years into their relationship over his jealousy issues.

"When we first started dating I was really jealous of other guys and the attention she was getting from other guys. It just wasn’t making me feel good," he said. "I was like, ‘I hate feeling like this. It doesn’t make me feel good, and I know it doesn’t make you feel good.’ And we broke up four years into our relationship. We broke up. It was the jealousy. I was turning into an a**" he admitted.

He later went on to say he's not "interested in the spotlight" and was happy for Jessica to pursue her acting career.

"I’m not a celeb, I’m not an actor, I’ve never tried to be an actor. I high-five her, let her do her thing, and I’ve gotten more comfortable with it over the years," he added.

He also divulged how the couple had navigated some of their rockier periods over their 17-year relationship.

"Going through a few of those cycles, I no longer get as nervous and kind of start looking at the door. I no longer get as nervous when you’re drifting apart, so to speak, or your energy is off," he said. "I think she’s felt very much aligned there. When we’re going through those times, we either give each other our space that we need, we talk it out, we maybe go on a date night. You try to do things to get it back, and fortunately I’ve got a partner who is right there lock and step.”

In 2021, Jessica also spoke about the work the two put into their marriage.

“It’s all rosy for two and a half years. But then after that, you become roommates,” she told People. “You’re just going through the motions. You have the responsibilities; it’s a lot of, like, checking the boxes, right?”
