Jessica Alba’s husband Cash Warren has revealed the couple once split up due to his jealousy.
Film producer Warren got hitched to the Honey star back in 2008 and shares three children together: daughters Honor Marie and Haven Garner, and son Hayes.
The pair, who met in 2004 during filming of Fantastic Four, may have 15 years under their belts, but things could have been very different, with Warren admitting they went their separate ways four years into the relationship due to his jealousy.

Speaking on the Whine Down with Jana Kramer podcast, Warren said: “When we first started dating, I was really jealous of other guys and the attention she was getting from other guys.
"It just wasn't making me feel good. I was always a pretty confident person in my own [life], walking my own path and really happy there."
He added: "Next thing you know I'm looking up and feeling jealous all the time."
Warren said he knew that the relationship wasn’t working for either of them at that point, so they decided to call it quits.
"We broke up four years into our relationship,” he explained. “It was the jealousy. I was turning into an a**hole, and so we broke up."
Warren went on to say that during their time apart, he vowed to work on himself.
“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,” he said.
With the couple now back on track, Warren shared his tips for longevity in a romantic relationship.
“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 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.”
