Jessica Alba was seen smiling as she received a warm hug from Brandon Green as they prepared to watch a tennis match in Los Angeles on Friday.
The 42-year-old actress and son of Sir Philip Green, 29, who split from Emma Watson after a ‘serious’ 18-month romance earlier this year, looked happy to see each other as they embraced.
An eyewitness told DailyMail.com that the pair exchanged ‘multiple hugs’ and engaged in friendly banter.
From our partners:
For her latest outing, the mother-of-three cut a stylish figure while rocking a loose blouse over a dark brown bandeau top and black pants.
She accessorized her casual look with a few layered necklaces, a crossbody purse and oversized shades.
Brandon wore a white button-down, which matched his sneakers, and his long locks tightly tied up in a behind his head in a man bun.
Alba’s latest sighting comes after her husband, Cash Warren, revealed they briefly split ‘four years into’ their relationship over his jealousy issues.
While looking back on their nearly two-decade romance during Monday’s episode of the Whine Down With Jana Kramer podcast, the film producer, 44, confessed when they ‘first started dating’ he ‘was really jealous of other guys and the attention that she was getting from other guys.’
‘It just wasn’t making me feel good,’ he recalled. ‘I was always a pretty confident person… And next thing you know, I’m looking up and just feeling jealous all the time.’
The envy led them to briefly split after he started ‘turning into an a**hole.’
‘We broke up. And during that time apart, I was just, like, if we ever got back together — I, like, made a promise to myself to channel that in a different way, into a more productive way,’ the father-of-three told listeners.
Ultimately, the couple have gone from strength to strength and welcomed two daughters Honor, 15, Haven, 12, and son Hayes, 5.
As for the key to their long and successful, Warren spoke about the evolution of their relationship over the years and having patience.
‘When you first start dating and you’re together and you get into a fight, you make up right away. And then, you get into a fight, you make up a couple days later,’ Warren said.
The Pair of Thieves co-founder went on to explain: ‘The longer you’re together, those kind of disagreements or those moments where your energy is just a little bit off, those can last longer. And so it goes from being, like, a one-day thing to a one-week thing to a month.’
‘When we’re going through those times, we either give each other our space that we need, we talk it out, we maybe go on a date night. You try to do things to get it back. And fortunately, I’ve got a partner who’s kind of right there, lock and step,’ he continued.
Now, Warren considers himself Alba’s ‘biggest cheerleader.’
‘I’ve tried to be a good teammate in that regard. I’m not interested in the spotlight,’ he insisted. ‘I’m not a star, I’m not a celeb, I’m not an actor, I’ve never tied to be an actor. I high-five her, let her do her thing and I’ve gotten more comfortable with it over the years.’
In order to best support his spouse, the entrepreneur stated that he has always encouraged Alba to pursue her passion and career and not ‘make sacrifices.’
Warren noted he has told his wife not to ‘feel bad for leaving the kids for this week or that week’ because ‘eventually, they’ll grow up and they’ll forget the fact that you were gone for these three days or these five days.’
‘We live, we forgive, we forget,’ he pointed out.
This week, Alba also opened up about their relationship as she raved about how well they share their thoughts and feelings.
Additionally, Warren praised Alba for finding ways to support and ‘uplift’ him too.
‘I think sometimes it’s over communication, sometimes it’s under communication,’ she told ET. ‘Sometimes it’s, ‘I need my space I’ll talk to you [later].’ When I need [you, I’ll say], ‘I miss you, will you come back?’ [It’s about] always communicating how you feel.’
When it comes to conflict, she said they ‘see things differently’ and ‘just talk it out and we always come to a solution.’
‘We’re rational people,’ the actress stated. ‘We both have been married for very long times. We know about compromise. It is an art.’
The couple first met on the set of Fantastic Four in 2004, where Alba was starring as Sue Storm, and Warren was working as an assistant director.
The two hit it off and got engaged three years later.
They tied the knot in a spur of the moment courthouse ceremony.
‘We eloped and I think I was nine months pregnant! It wasn’t planned,’ The Honest Company founder told Glamour UK in 2022.
The couple were expecting their oldest child, Honor, 14, at the time.
It was the LA’s Finest star, who popped the question.
‘It was literally, “Honey, do you have anything to do this morning?” And he was like, “No.” So I said, “Should we go to the courthouse and get married?” And he was like, “Yeah,”’ she recalled.
Instead of wedding cake, they celebrated with waffles.
‘And then I said, “Can we get waffles afterwards because I have a doctor’s appointment? Will you come to my doctor’s appointment?”’ adding, ‘And that’s how it happened!’
