New couple alert! It looks like actress Jessica Alba might have a new man in her life after her recent high-profile split from ex-husband, Cash Warren.
On the evening of March 2, 2025, the Fantastic Four star was spotted leaving the annual Vanity Fair Oscars Party in Beverly Hills, California, alongside comedian Alex Edelman.
The pair even seemed to coordinate their looks for the night, both opting for all-black ensembles. Jessica stunned in a strapless floor-length lace satin gown, while Alex kept it classic in a tailored suit, adding a subtle pop of color with a dark olive tuxedo jacket.
However, the highlight of the evening came when paparazzi captured the duo sharing a sweet, intimate moment that immediately sparked romance rumors.
In one particularly swoon-worthy snap, the comedian was spotted draping his tuxedo jacket over Alba’s shoulders before gently wrapping his arms around her, protectively guiding her through the crowd of fans and photographers outside the venue.
Jessica Alba Files For Divorce From Her Estranged Husband
The Trigger Warning star’s romance rumors with Alex emerged less than a month after she officially filed for divorce from Cash Warren.
According to court documents filed on February 7, 2025, in Los Angeles County, Alba cited irreconcilable differences as the reason for their split and listed their official date of separation as December 27, 2024.
The filing came just weeks after Jessica and Cash publicly confirmed their split through a joint Instagram post on January 16, 2025. In a heartfelt message, Jessica reflected on their time together, writing,
“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”.
Jessica Alba and Cash Warren were married for 17 years, from 2008 to 2025, following four years of dating before tying the knot — making it over two decades of being together.
As for Alex Edelman, he was previously in a public relationship with fellow comedian Hannah Einbinder from 2019 to 2022. The reason for their breakup remains unknown.
However, neither Jessica nor Alex has publicly addressed or confirmed the rumors surrounding their blossoming romance.
