Alba and Warren, who met on the set of “Fantastic Four” in 2004, married in 2008 and have three children together: daughters Honor, 16, and Haven, 13, and son Hayes, 7.
During a 2023 episode of the “Whine Down with Jana Kramer” podcast, 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 she was getting from other people.”
“I just didn’t feel right,” he said. “I’ve always been a pretty confident person… And the next thing you know, I’m looking up and feeling jealous all the time.”

“I was like, I hate feeling like this, it doesn’t make me feel good, and I know you don’t feel good,” he said, adding that he felt like he was “turning into a … hole.”
He continued, “We broke up. And during that time that we were apart, I was just, like, if we ever got back together — I promised myself that I would channel it in a different way, in a more productive way.”
In 2021, Alba opened her eyes struggles she also faced in her marriage.
“Everything’s been rosy for 2 1/2 years,” Alba said during an interview on Katherine Schwarzenegger’s Instagram show, “Before, during and after the baby.” “But after that you become roommates.”
