• Alba and Warren sat at opposite ends of the seating row at daughter Honor's graduation on Thursday
• The former couple kept their distance throughout the outdoor ceremony in Los Angeles
• Alba shared an emotional Instagram tribute to Honor, calling her growth "one of the greatest privileges" of her life

Jessica Alba and her ex-husband Cash Warren were pictured keeping to opposite ends of the seating row as they gathered to celebrate their eldest daughter Honor's high school graduation in Los Angeles on Thursday.

Sitting apart at the ceremony

The former couple, who announced the end of their nearly 17-year marriage in January 2025, were photographed sitting at opposite ends of the row during the commencement exercises.

Seated between them were various family members, including the couple's eight-year-old son Hayes, who sat alongside his father.

Alba, 45, was dressed for the occasion in a white blazer and white sunglasses paired with jeans. Warren, 47, was later seen separately chatting with friends and family, as was Alba, with the pair apparently maintaining their distance throughout the outdoor event.

Emotional tributes on social media

Following the ceremony, Alba took to Instagram to share a heartfelt tribute to her daughter. Alongside a throwback photograph of Honor as a young child, she wrote: "To my Honorcita, it seems like yesterday I was holding you in my arms, and in the blink of an eye, you're standing here ready for your next chapter."

"When I close my eyes, I can still see the little girl who wanted one more bedtime song, one more story, and endless cuddles. And now, you're graduating," the Sin City actress concluded, adding a teary-eyed emoji.

In a second post, Alba shared a photograph of Honor receiving her diploma dressed in a cap, gown, and lei.

"Watching you grow into the young woman you are today has been one of the greatest privileges of my life. To say I'm proud of you is an understatement," she wrote.

A third image showed Honor posing alongside her mother, sister Haven, 14, and brother Hayes.

Warren also shared a photograph with their three children, writing that Honor was "born for this moment." "I can't think of anyone more prepared for this next phase of life than you," he added. "I love you with every ounce of my being."

Life after the split

Alba, the co-founder of The Honest Company, and Warren announced their separation in January 2025.

At the time, Alba said: "We are moving forward with love, kindness and respect for each other and will forever be a family. Our children remain our highest priority and we request privacy at this time."

Since the split, Warren has been linked to model Hana Sun Doerr, 25, after the pair were spotted at dinner together in Los Angeles in August 2025.

Alba, meanwhile, first sparked dating speculation with actor Danny Ramirez, 33, after the pair were photographed kissing during a day out in London in May 2025.

She quietly introduced the relationship on social media in October 2025, and was most recently seen with Ramirez in Miami on Monday, where the Captain America: Brave New World actor and she were photographed together.
