Jessica Alba, Cash Warren split after 16 years of marriage

"I've been on a journey of self realization and transformation for years - both as an individual and in partnership with Cash," she wrote on Instagram. "I'm proud of how we've grown as a couple and in our marriage over the last 20 years and it's now time for us to embark on a new chapter of growth and evolution as individuals."

"We are moving forward with love and kindness and respect for each other and will forever be family," she concluded. "Our children remain our highest priority and we request privacy at this time."

Alba and Warren, who met on the set of "Fantastic Four" in 2004, tied the knot in 2008 and share three children together: daughters Honor, 16, and Haven, 13, and son Hayes, 7.

During an episode of the "Whine Down with Jana Kramer" podcast in 2023, Warren, a film producer, admitted that they had briefly separated four years into their relationship. 

Warren said when he and Alba first started dating, he was "really jealous of other guys and the attention that she was getting from other guys."

"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," he said, adding that he felt like he was "turning into an a--hole."

He continued, "We broke up. And during that time apart, I was just, like, if we ever got back together - I, like, made a promise to myself to channel that in a different way, into a more productive way." 

"You're just going through the motions," she added. "You have the responsibilities. It's a lot of, like, checking the boxes, right?"

In May 2024, Alba marked the former couple's 16th wedding anniversary with a special shoutout to Warren. 

A representative for Alba did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment.
