Jessica Alba's husband, Cash Warren, recently revealed that he and his wife briefly broke up in the past due to his jealousy issues. The film producer appeared on the "Whine Down with Jana Kramer" podcast where he admitted that the pair broke up four years into their relationship due to jealousy. Alba and Warren's relationship began over 20 years ago, but Warren admitted that it wasn't always smooth sailing. He opened up about the time he and Alba first began dating saying he was "really jealous of other guys and the attention that she was getting from other guys." He continued by saying, "It just wasn’t making me feel good. I was always a pretty confident person… And next thing you know, I’m looking up and just feeling jealous all the time. I was like, I hate feeling like this, it doesn’t make me feel good and I know it doesn’t make you feel good. 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." The pair made it through their rough patch and tied the knot in 2008, celebrating 15 years of marriage this May. They share three children together: Honor, 15, Haven, 12, Hayes, 5.
During his appearance on the podcast, Warren was also asked if he ever felt envious of Alba's success, starring in films such as "Sin City" and "Fantastic Four" along with founding her billion dollar household goods brand, Honest Company. "I’m her biggest cheerleader," Warren said. "I’ve never felt jealous of or resentment towards her for working hard. If anything, when we got together, I was like, ‘pursue your passions, pursue your career, don’t make sacrifices because you feel bad for leaving the kids for this week or that week. Eventually they’ll grow up and they’ll forget that you were gone for these three days or five days. We live, we forgive, we forget.’" When asked to give his insight on their long-lasting marriage, Warren said "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."
