Jessica Alba was seen in public for the first time following reports of her split from husband Cash Warren. The actress and Honest Company co-founder, aged 43, was photographed in Los Angeles on January 13, shopping at Erewhon supermarket and later visiting a park in Hollywood. Notably, she was not wearing her wedding ring in the images published by Page Six on January 14.
According to TMZ, Alba and Warren, 45, have decided to separate after 16 years of marriage and are in the process of preparing for divorce. Despite the separation, a source informed PEOPLE that the couple remains amicable, especially for the sake of their three children: Honor, 16, Haven, 13, and Hayes, 7. The insider mentioned that despite the decision to divorce, there is no animosity between the pair, and they are still supportive of each other.
Alba and Warren exchanged vows in May 2008 after meeting on the set of the film “Fantastic Four” in Vancouver back in 2004, where Warren was working as a director’s assistant. The couple’s relationship has been a mainstay in Hollywood, known for their philanthropic efforts and commitment to charitable causes.
In the wake of ongoing wildfires in Los Angeles, Alba has been actively involved in relief efforts. She recently took to Instagram on January 15 to share her experience at Baby2Baby, an organization close to her heart, where she helped pack fire relief hygiene kits for children affected by the fires. The kits were set to be distributed to those who had been evacuated or lost their homes due to the Altadena fire.
Expressing gratitude for the community’s support, Alba emphasized the importance of collective action in times of crisis. She urged her followers to consider contributing in any way possible, whether through donations, volunteering, supporting neighbors, or offering prayers. Alba highlighted the resilience of the Los Angeles community and emphasized the impact that collective efforts can have in making a difference.
Baby2Baby, a cause Alba has long been associated with as a founding board member and ambassador, has been instrumental in providing essential items to families affected by the wildfires. The organization has already distributed millions of items to those in need since the fires broke out, showcasing the power of community support in times of adversity.
Alba’s commitment to charitable endeavors aligns with her longstanding dedication to making a positive impact in her community. Through her involvement with organizations like Baby2Baby, she continues to demonstrate the importance of giving back and supporting those in need, especially during challenging times such as natural disasters.
The public appearance and involvement in relief efforts underline Alba’s resilience and compassionate spirit in the face of personal and societal challenges. As she navigates this new chapter in her personal life, her focus on philanthropy and community service serves as a testament to her unwavering commitment to making a difference, both on and off the screen.
