Months before her reported split from husband Cash Warren, Jessica Alba said she and Warren had “become roommates.”

Alba, 43, opened up about her marriage in a candid conversation with podcaster Katherine Schwarzenegger Pratt in April 2024. 

“It’s all rosy for 2 ½ years, but then after that, you become roommates,” Alba revealed on Schwarzenegger’s “BDA Baby” podcast. “And it’s just, like, you’re roommates. You’re just going through the motion. It’s the responsibility. It’s a lot of, like, checking the boxes.”

TMZ reported on Wednesday, January 8, that Alba and Warren, 45, recently separated and are preparing to file for divorce. Us Weekly has reached out to their reps for comment.

The pair met on the set of The Fantastic Four in 2004, where Alba was the leading lady and Warren a production assistant. They tied the knot four years later.

During their 2008 vows, Alba was nine months pregnant with their daughter Honor, now 16. The couple went on to welcome daughter Haven, 13, and son, Hayes, 6.

When Schwarzenegger Pratt, 35, asked how Alba was able to find balance amid her heavy responsibilities — and ensure “your husband feels tended to” — Alba made a face.

“If you’ve figured it out in your relationship, let me know,” she quipped, adding, “You know, I think that [Warren] probably gets the short end of the stick. … It’s hard. It’s impossible.”

Alba said that she and Warren had previously tried to schedule regular date nights where “we won’t have our phone and we’ll just talk. But then that stopped because of whatever – and so we’re just not consistent.”

She advised Schwarzenegger Pratt’s listeners that it was important “to communicate when you’re unhappy and nipping it right away instead of letting it sort of, like, fester — and then you have animosity and then it explodes.”

Alba also noted that she and Warren had “gone through that,” since they’d been together so long, and joked that “he basically stole my 20s and my 30s.”

“We have, obviously, the friendship, the comfort of, like, ‘You’re not going anywhere,’” she added. “And so sometimes you don’t treat those people the best, right? You don’t consider their feelings in the way that you would consider other people’s feelings. So that is something that I think is a constant — it’s a constant one to work on.”

She said that married couples should avoid discussing topics such as kids’ schedules during alone time together. 

“That date night, or that time, is when you really shouldn’t talk about the annoying stuff that you talk about during the week anyway. It is the time to sort of, like, get past that and check in in a different way. But it’s hard. It’s really hard.”

Hollywood productions and industry events have been halted amid the ongoing wildfires in Los Angeles.

“The past two days have brought unprecedented risk to life and property from multiple area wildfires, while also placing extreme demands on public safety personnel,” nonprofit Film LA wrote in a Wednesday, January 8, production alert. “With deepest appreciation for the efforts of local firefighters, police and paramedics at this difficult time, we advise the production community that personnel resources ordinarily available to support film production may not be available during the local State of Emergency.”

The statement added, “The L.A. County Fire Department has specifically instructed that all permits issued for filming in the communities of Altadena, La Crescenta, La Canada/Flintridge and Unincorporated Pasadena are withdrawn.  Other permit revocations are possible.”

Many stars have had to evacuate their homes, including Mandy Moore, Spencer Pratt, Cameron Mathison and more. Several of their respective properties had even been destroyed by the blaze.

“I love you, Altadena. Grateful for my family and pets getting out last night before it was too late (and endless gratitude to friends for taking us in and bringing us clothes and blankets),” Moore, 40, wrote via Instagram on Wednesday. “Honestly, I’m in shock and feeling numb for all so many have lost, including my family. My children’s school is gone. Our favorite restaurants, leveled. So many friends and loved ones have lost everything too. Our community is broken but we will be here to rebuild together.”
