A closer look at the cracks in Cash Warren and Jessica Alba's marriage
Although Alba and Warren's marriage appeared "picture perfect", there were several occasions when Alba hinted that things were not always rosy. In her interview with Katherine Pratt, she disclosed:
The first two and a half years of marriage are exciting. After that, responsibilities start piling, and you both go through the motions. Cash and I used to go for weekly date nights, but that stopped along the way.
Jessica added:
Sometimes you might not treat your partner as well as you should because you know they are not going anywhere. You may end up even disregarding their feelings.
On 31 December 2024, the actress shared a cryptic message on Instagram to usher in a new year. She posted her 2025 mantra as:
If it messes with my peace, dims my light or makes me question myself, it is getting left in 2024.
