In her post’s statement, Alba, 43, wrote on Instagram, “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,” continued the Trigger Warning actress.

Alba went on to say that she and film-producer Warren, 45, “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 Honest Company co-founder concluded.
Alba and Warren met in 2004, on the set of Fantastic Four. They married in May 2008, and share three children: daughters Honor, 16, and Haven, 13, plus son Hayes, 7.
TMZ reported on Jan. 9 that the pair have separated and are preparing for divorce. A source then told PEOPLE on Wednesday, Jan, 15, that Alba has retained a divorce attorney.
Lopez, 55, recently finalized her own divorce from ex Ben Affleck, on Jan. 6. The settlement came nearly 20 weeks after she filed for a dissolution of marriage on Aug. 20, 2024, exactly two years after her Georgia wedding celebration with Affleck, 52.

The actress and singer opened up to Nikki Glaser for Interview magazine in October 2024 about a range of meaningful topics, including her new film Unstoppable and what she learned while navigating a difficult, but ultimately illuminating, year.
“It’s a lifelong process,” said Lopez of her ongoing quest for self-understanding and discovery through life’s ups and downs during the interview, which was conducted Sept. 10. “I think that’s what I love about life: that there’s no arrival point. There’s only getting better and growing if you want to. It’s either growing or dying, and I don’t want to do the dying part.”
“And yeah, there’s times when I thought I figured it out, and then life goes, ‘Let’s send you another thing and see if you fall for it. Let’s see if you really have learned that lesson.’ And I hadn’t,” she continued.
As for her dating life, Lopez added, “Now I’m excited, when you say you’re just going to be on your own. Yes, I’m not looking for anybody, because everything that I’ve done over the past 25, 30 years, being in these different challenging situations, what can I f—ing do when it’s just me flying on my own … what if I’m just free?”
