Jessica Alba's estranged husband could get a $2 million divorce settlement every year

Reports suggest that Warren, who appears to have been a stay-at-home husband, may receive $2 million a year from his wealthy wife, regardless of whether the couple had a prenuptial agreement.

The revelation comes after it was revealed that Jessica Alba and Cash Warren are “separated” and “on the verge of a divorce” after they were spotted in public without their wedding rings.

Alba and Warren's marriage may have fallen apart, but a new report suggests the man of the house may be walking out of the marriage with a hefty payoff.

Chat with USA SunGoldie Shawn, a legal expert and certified family law specialist, explained that Warren could receive $2 million a year from Alba because the “Fantastic Four” actress owes much more than child support.

Shawn, who specializes in complex custody and divorce cases, explains that Warren's chances of leaving her 16-year marriage for a richer one would not be affected by the presence or absence of a marriage, especially because of the vast difference in their wealth.

While Alba co-founded The Honest Company, which is worth $609 million and was reportedly worth more than $1 billion at one point, Warren is a producer who has apparently not worked in the industry since 2015.

“Even if there's a marriage and she'll be able to keep what she owns, so the fairly profitable company Honest, that's not going to stop the issue of spousal support,” Sean told the news outlet.

She continued, “We've evolved around prenuptial agreements, and historically we've had some very large cases where prenuptial agreements have failed to terminate spousal support between couples who are about to marry.”

The legal expert went on to explain a potential clause that could make Warren richer regardless of whether the marriage exists.

Shawn gave an example, noting that if a purported prenuptial agreement states that neither Alba nor Warren will receive spousal support, a court can decide that that clause is “reasonable and throw it out and still award spousal support the same way it would be done as if the marriage had never existed.”

She also suggested that the court could find that the alleged prenuptial agreement, which would have been signed 16 years ago and before Alba made millions with his company, is no longer reasonable.

Also, since their marriage is subject to California's long-term marriage rules, there would be no guidelines as to when spousal support should end.

“Spousal support would continue until someone passes or someone then comes back to court and tries to stop it, change it or end it,” she continued.

Shawn added, “Because it's a long-term marriage, the court basically has no right to say you're only going to pay spousal support for seven years. Eight years, two years, it doesn't matter. The only two people who Parties can reach that agreement.”

Earlier this week, reports surfaced suggesting that Alba and Warren had ended their marriage and were preparing for a divorce.

The source of the story TMZ that the estranged couple “recently separated,” but there are signs that their marriage has been on the rocks for some time.

The “Trigger Warning” actress went solo to the Golden Globes pre-party at the Chateau Marmont in West Hollywood last Saturday, but she didn't wear her wedding ring.

What's more, when she joined film producer Andrea Iervolino for a night out in Rome last month, she was ringless, prompting speculation that there was trouble in paradise. Warren was also spotted in Los Angeles without a ring on her left hand.

The 43-year-old actress recently posted a cryptic message on her Instagram account about moving on from things that “make me question my worth.”

“2024 cleared the way, 2025 demands magic,” Alba wrote in a note alongside photos of herself with her daughters and friends.

She added: “My mantra for 2025: If it messes with my peace, it's too expensive. If it dulls my shine, it has to go. If it makes me question my worth, it's left in 2024. 2025 is focused and completely in my power.”

Despite the fact that she and Warren are rarely seen together, the estranged couple reunited to celebrate my son's seventh birthday at Universal Studios last week.

Alba and Warren seem to have lost their love for each other a long time ago, as an old clip of her resurfaced saying they were more like “roommates” years before news of their split was confirmed.

The actress made the remarks about her marriage in July 2021 during an appearance on Katherine Schwarzenegger's Instagram show Before, During and After Baby.

“Everything is rosy for two and a half years. But then you become roommates,” Alba said. Sixth page. “You're just going through the motions. You have responsibilities. It's a lot like checking boxes, isn't it?”

Elsewhere in the conversation, the “Dark Angel” alumna admitted that she often took their partnership for granted.

“Of course we have the camaraderie, the comfort, like, 'you're not going anywhere,' and that's why sometimes you don't treat them the best, do you?” Alba said. “You don't consider their feelings the way you would other people's feelings, so I think that's something that needs to be constantly worked on.”
