Jessica Albaand Cash Warren have separated, TMZ reported. The L.A.’s Finest actress and the film producer were married for 16 years before reportedly calling it quits on their relationship.
The outlet reported the pair are planning to divorce, however, they did not report a cause for the split.
Jessica, 43, and Cash, 45, share three children: Honor and Haven and Hayes.
The report comes after the Fantastic Four actress was seen in photos on Saturday, January 4, attending a party in West Hollywood prior to the Golden Globes without Cash. She was not wearing her wedding ring in the pictures.
In the past, Cash opened up about experiencing some highs and lows in their relationship.
“When we first started dating, I was really jealous of other guys and the attention that she was getting from other guys, and it just wasn’t making me feel good,” he said during an episode of the “Whine Down With Jana Kramer” podcast in August 2o23. “I was always a pretty confident person … And next thing you know, I’m looking up and just feeling jealous all the time.”

His jealousy got so bad that it drove a wedge into his relationship with Jessica four years into their relationship.
“I was turning into an asshole, and so, we broke up,” he admitted. “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.”
Jessica and Cash first met on the set of Fantastic Four in 2004, where she starred in the superhero film and he served as a production assistant. The pair got married in 2008 after announcing they were expecting their first child together.
A source previously told Closer in June 2024 that Jessica and Cash worked together and saved their marriage from the brink of divorce in the past.
“It’s well known that back when they first got married Cash had quite the roving eye. But some years back he came to his senses and realized he didn’t want to lose Jessica and he went from being quite the misogynistic jerk to a total hero hubby,” the insider said. “It did take some serious work, there’s no way they would have made it this far without therapy, but at the end of the day they’re proof that sometimes it’s worth sticking it out because here they are, all these years later, more in love than ever.”
At the time, the source said that the Honest Beauty founder and her husband were even “talking about doing a vow renewal at some point down the line.”
“Her parents did it for their 30th wedding anniversary but Cash and Jessica are saying they want to do it much sooner than that,” the insider said in the months prior to their reported separation.
