Jessica Alba has stepped into a new chapter, and it looks like there’s someone new by her side. The 44-year-old actress is casually dating ‘Top Gun: Maverick’ and ‘Captain America: Brave New World’ actor Danny Ramirez, 32, after ending her 16-year marriage to producer Cash Warren.
The relationship is reportedly lighthearted and low-pressure. According to Us Weekly, “They were friends before it turned romantic,” with the pair becoming close thanks to their shared social circle, which includes Alba’s longtime friend, Eva Longoria. “Jessica is still keeping things casual,” the source noted.
Alba and Ramirez sparked dating rumors earlier this month when they were photographed returning to Los Angeles from a Cancún vacation, while wearing baseball caps and sunglasses, the two tried to keep a low profile.

Another added that although Ramirez is “enamored with her,” things aren’t serious yet. “She’s not in that frame of mind,” a source told the Daily Mail. “Right now, she’s looking to just have fun.”

But divorce was the only option.”

Both filed for divorce in February, citing irreconcilable differences and requesting joint custody. Despite the separation, Alba and Warren have maintained a united front for their children. They celebrated Easter together, and she gave him a heartfelt Father’s Day shout-out in June.
