Jessica Alba’s Casual West Hollywood Dinner with Danny Ramirez Stirs Buzz
Avery Sinclair here, your resident skeptic eying every celebrity move with a raised eyebrow.
Well, hold onto your side salads because Jessica Alba and Danny Ramirez decided to give date night a try at her very own Alba Italian restaurant in West Hollywood on July 23. No red carpet extravaganza—just a dark zip-up, a white tank top and enough Hollywood vibes to fuel all the rumor mills.
The 44-year-old Honey star slid into the passenger seat while the 32-year-old Captain America: Brave New World actor, clad in a jean jacket and baseball cap, took the wheel. Witnesses tell E! Online they exchanged polite smiles before peeling out into the night, presumably en route to peeling each other’s opinions about kale.
This low-key outing arrives just a week after the pair returned from a sunburn-free getaway in Cancún on July 14, which first triggered dating whispers. Neither Alba nor Ramirez has confirmed anything beyond a friendly dinner, making this the thinnest veil between Hollywood and true romance—so far.
Alba’s new public appearance comes after her January split announcement from Cash Warren, the film producer she married in 2008. In an Instagram statement she praised their “growth in marriage over the last 20 years” and noted that they would “move forward with love, kindness and respect.” They share three kids: Honor, 17, Haven, 13, and Hayes, 7.
Want to know the real plot twist? In April on Katherine Schwarzenegger’s BDA Baby podcast, Alba confessed that marital date nights became a fond memory once busy schedules took over. She admitted Cash got “the short end of the stick” after weekly rituals fell by the wayside and the couple slipped into roommate mode.
Even amid divorce filings in February 2025, Alba and Warren have shown a united front at family events. They co-celebrated Easter in April 2025, cheered on their son Hayes at a Lakers game and even tackled Super Bowl Sunday with the girls in New Orleans. Sources at People Magazine saw them at Universal Studios in January 2025 for Hayes’s birthday blowout.
Before the split news went public, the family kept it festive—Alba posted holiday snaps from Christmas 2024 and shared moments from a June 2024 screening of Trigger Warning, where Honor rocked a Prada dress from 2007 and Haven sported Dolce Gabbana circa 2010.
No official words have come from Alba or Ramirez’s camps about whether this dinner is the start of a long-term headline or just another Hollywood footnote. If you ask me, it is exactly the gentle public trial run you’d expect from modern celebrity life.
So keep your notifications on. Next time they pop up might be dinner with the kids or a weekend jaunt in Hawaii. Either way, we’ll be there with skeptic goggles firmly in place.
Ready for the next chapter in this low-stakes saga? Stay tuned.
And that is all the bite-sized Hollywood realness you need today.
