Jessica Alba confirms split from husband of almost 20 years in emotional social media post

Honey star Jessica Alba has confirmed that she’s split from her husband of nearly 20 years.

In recent days, there’s been a barrage of reports that Alba and film producer Cash Warren have gone their separate ways after tying the knot in 2008.

The celebrity pair share three kids together: Honor, 16, Haven, 13, and seven-year-old Hayes.

The two met on the set of Fantastic Four in 2004 and dated for four years before marrying.

Alba starred as Sue Storm in the movie, while Warren was director Tim Story’s assistant.

Both Alba and Warren were yet to address the status of their relationship amid the reports of their split — until now.

Taking to Instagram yesterday (January 17), Alba opened up about a ‘journey of self realization’ she’s been on in recent years.

In the post she simply captioned with a white heart emoji, the 43-year-old wrote to her 20 million followers: “I’ve been on a journey of self realization and transformation for years – both as an individual and in partnership with Cash. 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.”

Alba’s poignant post continued: “We are moving forward with love and kindness and respect for each other and will forever be family. Our children remain our highest priority and we request privacy at this time.”

The mom-of-three has turned the comments off on the post.

Rewind back to May 2024 on the former couple’s 16th wedding anniversary, and Alba gushed about Warren and said she was ‘proud’ of them ‘for making it this far’.

“16 years of marriage, 20 years together and forever to go,” she wrote.

“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.”

Alba added at the time: “Through thick and thin we have continually found our way back to each other and have chosen one another. Cheers to us, I love you.”

While Alba and Warren’s break-up seems final, Warren once revealed that they’d previously split before they married, and later rekindled.

Speaking in 2023, Warren said on the Whine Down with Jana Kramer podcast: “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. I was always a pretty confident person in my own [life], walking my own path and really happy there.”

Because he was ‘feeling jealous all the time’, they decided to break up.

It’s unclear how long they were separated for before getting back together.

Jennifer Lopez breaks social media silence after filing for divorce from Ben Affleck

Jennifer Lopez breaks social media silence after filing for divorce from Ben Affleck

J.Lo has returned to Instagram following her split from Affleck

Jennifer Lopez has returned to social media for the first time since announcing her split from Ben Affleck.

Lopez filed for divorce from her husband earlier this week, with official court documents dating the separation to 26 April.

The papers, filed in the Los Angeles County Superior Court, did not state that a prenup was arranged, which is often common in celebrity divorces.

Both parties will be ordered to disclose their finances, including their current income, expenses, properties, and any debts they owe.

The pair have not spoken publicly since news of the split came to light, but J.Lo has now taken to Instagram to break her silence.

The star reshared a selfie that a fan account had posted, with her glam looking as glittering as ever.

The post wasn’t accompanied by a caption, but fans believe that the original photo was taken at a photoshoot in December 2020.

Lopez, 55, and Affleck, 52, got married two years ago after almost two decades apart following their first split in 2004.

They chose to have two weddings, in true celeb style, with the first taking place in Las Vegas in July 2022, and the second – much larger one – in Georgia just a month later.

She spoke about how love is patient upon announcing their marriage, after waiting over two whole decades to be wed with Affleck.

In a post, she said: “Love is beautiful. Love is kind.

“And it turns out love is patient. Twenty years patient.”

But the split didn’t totally come as a shock to fans, after rumours have been circulating for a while.

Lopez was recently seen on holiday separately to her husband and not wearing her wedding ring.

And whilst most newly-divorced couples couldn’t think of anything worse than coming face-to-face with their former other-half, the ‘Jen and Ben’ reunion could be sooner than we think.

That’s because their joint project – a heartbreaking drama movie titled Unstoppable – is due to land in cinemas very soon.

Presumably, both stars will be attending the premieres of the film, which will make for a very awkward encounter.

Whether or not the couple will appear together on the red carpet, however, is anyone’s guess.

Page Six has reported that J.Lo will make an appearance as one of the main characters, while Ben will choose to stay at home in LA.

But I guess we’ll just have to see…

Pamela Anderson has given a rare insight into her relationship with her ex-husband Tommy Lee.

Anderson was married to the Mötley Crüe drummer between 1995 – 1998 and, over the course of their relationship, they welcomed two sons.

Their kids – Brandon, 28, and 27-year-old Dylan – are thought to be the main reason that the Baywatch star and her ex keep in touch with one another, but apparently things haven’t been too amicable between the celebrity pair of late.

Last year, Dylan got engaged to his long-time girlfriend, something Anderson said she was ‘so happy’ about.

On his Instagram post announcing his joyful news, the proud mom wrote at the time: “I’m so happy for you guys!!! You are meant for each other… I love you both, congratulations!”

Now, in a recent conversation with Andy Cohen on his SiriusXM radio show, she mentioned Dylan’s engagement after being asked about how things are between her and Lee.

“We used to talk a lot more,” she shared. “Not recently unfortunately, but, you know. I wish we did have a better rapport.”

Anderson went on: “You know what, my youngest son is engaged and we’re going to have grandkids together, so…”

She added that things between them will be OK ‘eventually’, and that it’s ‘just kind of a moment right now’.

UNILAD has approached Lee’s rep for comment.

While Anderson’s not on the best of terms with Lee right now, someone she does supposedly have a ‘great connection’ with is Taken star, Liam Neeson.

The two are starring alongside one another in The Naked Gun reboot that’s set to be released later this year.

Before shooting the movie, Anderson admitted that she was nervous to meet Neeson.

“I was also afraid to meet Liam,” the 57-year-old told Seth Meyers. “But Liam is also just a wonderful, generous person.”

She further hailed her co-star as ‘hysterical’ and teased that film fans were in for a treat when they see his scenes in The Naked Gun.

“We had a great connection,” Anderson added.

Neeson has echoed similar sentiments about Anderson, and described himself as being ‘madly in love with her’.

Speaking to People Magazine, the Hollywood veteran admitted: “With Pamela, first off, I’m madly in love with her. She’s just terrific to work with.

“I can’t compliment her enough, I’ll be honest with you. No huge ego. She just comes in to do the work. She’s funny and so easy to work with. She’s going to be terrific in the film.”

The Naked Gun hits cinemas on August 1.

A video has emerged online of Hugh Jackman getting emotional after hitting a huge major milestone, which comes 10 months after splitting from his wife of 27 years.

The Australian actor is seen riding passenger in his car crying laughing at his phone, as happy tears stream down his face.

It comes after Jackman discovered that his new film Deadpool & Wolverine became the number one movie in the world.

The blockbuster Hollywood movie grossed $211 million in its opening weekend in the US alone, and $438.3 million worldwide.

It is the sixth-greatest opening weekend for a movie in the US in history.

Only falling behind Avengers: Endgame, Spider-Man: No Way Home, Avengers: Infinity War, Star Wars: Episode VII – The Force Awakens, and Star Wars: Episode VIII – The Last Jedi.

But while the Golden Globe winner hit a new high in his esteemed acting career, alongside Deadpool frontman, Ryan Reynolds, just 10 months ago he issued a statement to People about his and wife Deborra-Lee Furness’ decision to split.

The actors’ statement read: “We have been blessed to share almost 3 decades together as husband and wife in a wonderful, loving marriage. Our journey now is shifting and we have decided to separate to pursue our individual growth.

“Our family has been and always will be our highest priority. We undertake this next chapter with gratitude, love, and kindness. We greatly appreciate your understanding in respecting our privacy as our family navigates this transition in all of our lives.”

It concluded with the Aussie pair signing off as ‘Deb and Hugh Jackman’.

Jackman took to Instagram to share the video which shows him laughing at his phone before saying, ‘oh my god’, while the previous post showed his character Wolverine looking at a picture on his bed, and the framed image read ‘number one movie in the world’.

But it was thanks to his children, 24-year-old Oscar and 19-year-old Ava, that he decided to take up the role.

Speaking with The Daily Telegraph, he said: “I had been talking to my kids about, ‘what do you want to do with your life? What is it you want to do if you could do anything?’

“And I thought I should ask that of myself, if I could do anything – and I am super lucky in that in many ways I can ask myself that question – what would it be?”

So what was that?

It was to play Wolverine again, so having previously turned down Reynolds’ call for them to make a movie together, he phoned him up and told him he was in.

And well, the rest is history.

Glenn Close opened up about her love life while speaking to Drew Barrymore in a brutally honest new interview.

Veteran actress Glenn Close will likely disappoint fans if they want to know the nitty gritty details of her love life.

Recently speaking to Drew Barrymore on her show, she revealed what dating has been like in the last 10 years since her divorce.

Back in 2015, the 77-year-old split from her biotech engineer husband David Shaw.

When Barrymore asked her whether she has been entertaining any relationships since, Close bluntly replied ‘no’.

The TV host admitted that she was very much in the same boat. Close went on to explain that this didn’t bother her very much for one simple reason.

Close said: “I don’t know I’m always up for anything but I am very happy right now.”

Barrymore couldn’t help but pry a little more and asked whether Close had ever jumped on one of the many dating apps available.

To which Close simply replied: “Are you crazy?!” and added that she was ‘too shy’ to try all of that.

Barrymore admitted she had tried them and got really into it.

She said: “I got so into it, I thought it was so much fun. The search is different.”

The three-time Golden Globe Award winner and mother-of-one candidly said she simply wasn’t searching.

She continued: “Because I’m not a hugely comfortable social person so I don’t leap to go to a party, at all. I’m okay.”

The host then shifted the conversation towards Close’s latest film, Back in Action.

Close’s split from Shaw marked her third divorce and the actress has previously spoken about why she believes her previous marriages and relationships haven’t worked.

In 1969, at the age of 22, she entered into her first marriage with singer-songwriter Cabot Wade and split from him in 1971. In 1984, she married businessman James Marlas, splitting in 1987. Her most recent relationship was with Shaw and the two got married in 2006 before splitting in 2015 amicably.

In an interview with Parade, she explained that it wasn’t always the best decision to get together with someone else who wasn’t in show business.

She said: “To stay an artist, you have to be with people who understand that and don’t expect you to have their outlook on the world.

“It really is like two different languages.”
