What is Jessica Alba’s net worth? Fortune explored amid separation reports from husband Cash Warren

Jessica Alba and Cash Warren are reportedly heading for a divorce after 17 years of marriage. The couple who got married in 2008 are parents to three kids—daughters Honor (16) and Haven (13) and son Hayes (7).

The news of their separation emerged on January 8, 2025, as sources indicated that the couple has separated and is preparing for divorce. Another source told People Magazine that they are still "friends and all about the kids."

The source further mentioned that the reason behind their split is not “because of some hateful drama” but due to a lack of “spark” in their relationship.

"Jess has mentioned over the years, though, that it's hard to keep the spark," the source added.

Jessica Alba, who reportedly has a net worth of approximately $100 million as of 2024, met Warren in 2004 on the sets of Fantastic Four. Alba played Sue Storm, while Warren worked as an assistant director.

Her successful acting career and entrepreneurial ventures helped her to build an impressive net worth over the years. Here is a detailed look at how she achieved her financial success.

Jessica Alba’s acting career and business growth

Born on April 28, 1981, in Pomona, California, Jessica Alba developed an interest in acting when she was just five years old. At the age of 13, in 1994, she landed her first role in the film Camp Nowhere, as per a report.

Her breakout role came when she was chosen as the lead in the television series Dark Angel, which aired from 2000 to 2002. This project earned her a Golden Globe nomination, marking her rise in the Hollywood industry.

After Dark Angel, Jessica Alba transitioned into films like Fantastic Four (2005), Sin City (2005), Good Luck Chuck (2007), The Eye (2008), Valentine’s Day (2010), and Mechanic: Resurrection (2016). The Sin City actress was recently seen in a Netflix film titled Trigger Warning, released in June 2024.

These films contributed significantly to her earnings, as she reportedly earned over $20 million with these projects.

In addition to acting, she is an entrepreneur, as she co-founded The Honest Company in 2012, known for its eco-friendly baby products.

In 2015, The Honest Company reached a valuation of $1 billion, which impacted Alba’s net worth. Consequently, in 2017, Alba lost her spot on Forbes’ Self-Made Women list primarily due to a decline in the valuation of her company. According to Forbes, her net worth saw a significant decline from $340 million in 2016 to $200 million in 2017.

In 2017, Alba purchased a mansion in Beverly Hills for $10 million, where she resided with her husband and children.

In May 2021, when the company went public, her stake was worth $130 million before taxes. This was based on an initial public offering price of $23 per share. However, the company’s stock prices fell sharply over time, dropping to $5 by early 2022.

In April 2024, Jessica Alba stepped down from her leadership role as Chief Creative Officer in The Honest Company. Instead, she stayed as a member of the board of directors. She announced her decision on Instagram in a post.

Her net worth came down to $100 million in 2024 due to fluctuations in her finances over the years.

Besides this, the Honey actress receives huge paychecks from endorsement deals with brands like Magnum, Revlon, Lamborghini, Campari, Piaget, Braun, and L’Oréal, etc., as other reports indicate. She has a vast following across various social media platforms, adding up to 47.3 million followers, as per a report in The Strive, which signifies a great money-making potential.

Speaking of their divorce, Jessica Alba recently celebrated her son Hayes’ 7th birthday and posted a happy family picture on her Instagram, which also included her husband, Cash Warren. As of now, neither of the two has commented on the reports of their split.
