Jessica Alba's decision not to sign a prenuptial agreement before marrying actorDanny Ramirezhas reportedly 'stunned' some of her friends, who are said to be worried about theSin Citystar's estimated $60 million fortune and the speed of the relationship, according to Star magazine.
Alba, 44, is preparing for a new chapter after the end of her 16-year marriage to film producer Cash Warren, which concluded in 2025. The pair, who married in 2008, did not have a prenup in place either, a detail that has now resurfaced as she plans a future with 33-year-oldTop Gun: Maverickactor Ramirez, to whom she has been romantically linked for less than a year, according to the outlet.
The report paints a picture of an actress who is almost philosophically opposed to the idea of financial contracts in marriage. A source quoted by Star claims Alba sees prenuptial agreements as fundamentally unromantic and at odds with what she believes marriage is supposed to represent.
'Jessica is a romantic through and through and to her, prenups are the least romantic thing,' the insider said, adding that theFantastic Fourstar, who co-founded The Honest Company, 'cringes at the idea' of signing one.
The source went further, suggesting Alba's position is not simply about sentimentality but her concept of trust. 'She says if she is going to marry someone, it's because she knows their character and trusts them,' the insider explained. 'If she feels she needs a prenup to 'protect' herself, she's not going to get married. To her, that's a sign something is wrong.'
On the face of it, that is a striking stance for someone reportedly worth $60 million, a figure cited in the piece from Celebrity Net Worth and repeated by Star. In a town where contracts are standard, Alba seems prepared to rely on judgement and emotional instinct rather than legal insulation.
Her previous marriage is being quietly used by those close to the situation as Exhibit A. The source noted that Alba did not have a prenup with Warren, and yet, when their relationship ended after more than a decade and a half, 'they were able to solve things.' No details of their financial settlement were given, but the implication is that the experience has only reinforced her belief that such agreements are unnecessary.
The same insider added that Alba is aware of the concerns around her choice and appears tired of the scrutiny. 'She swears she's not worried and she wants people to stop bugging her about it,' the source said.
If Alba feels assured, the mood among some of her friends is described rather differently. According to Star's reporting, the decision not to sign a prenup with Ramirez has surprised those in her inner circle, not just because of her wealth, but because of the relatively short timeline of the romance.
'It's a decision that has left Alba's friends 'stunned',' the magazine's source claimed, pointing to the fact that she and Ramirez have been publicly linked for under a year. In their view, this is all moving too quickly for someone coming out of a long-term marriage.
