While neither has publicly commented on the divorce rumors, sources close to the couple reported that they remain amicable and focused on co-parenting their children.

The source told PEOPLE,

“No matter what’s going on right now, it seems they will remain close. If they’re filing for divorce, it’s not because of some hateful drama. They still look happy together. Jess has mentioned over the years though that it’s hard to keep the spark.”

Cash Warren and Jessica Alba’s journey through marital challenges

Cash Warren discussed the challenges in his marriage to Jessica Alba during an interview with Us Weekly six months before their separation.

He told the outlet at the time,

“I think, ultimately, the friendship and support and just knowing that your partner has your back means everything to us, I think that would be the secret, is just having each other’s back. It’s hard work, but we roll up our sleeves and we do it. It’s wild. It’s the longest relationship I could have ever imagined.”

In addition, Warren shared how they kept their connection strong by taking time away from their daily routines.

He mentioned that they enjoyed activities like going for walks, having meaningful conversations, and sharing meals. He stated,

“For us, it’s getting out of the house and going and staying somewhere else for a night. Unplugging is big.”

Despite these efforts, the couple ultimately faced difficulties that led to their separation.

“It’s all rosy for 2 ½ years, but then after that, you become roommates. 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.”
