Jessica Alba packs on PDA with new boyfriend Danny Ramirez outside his home as sizzling romance takes off
In photos obtained by DailyMail.com, the 44-year-old actress was seen packing on the PDA with her new man outside his Los Angeles home on Saturday—just days after their flirty Italian dinner date.
Dressed down in a grey sweatsuit, black jacket, and baseball cap pulled low, Jessica kept it casual but clearly couldn't keep her hands—or lips—off her new beau.
Danny, 31, matched her low-key vibe in a dark T-shirt, grey pants, and a similar cap, proving they're already syncing up in more ways than one.
Fresh off a crystal shopping trip the day before, Jessica looked recharged and glowing as she locked lips with Danny in a passionate embrace.
At one point, she even leaned in for another kiss as he gazed at her with total adoration.

After their extended makeout session, Danny was spotted receiving a large floral arrangement delivered to his doorstep—romantic gesture, or just good timing?
Either way, it's safe to say this romance is heating up fast.
The PDA-packed sighting came just two days after Jessica was seen stocking up on spiritual essentials at KM Crystals in Venice Beach, a favorite haunt for wellness lovers looking to recharge.
Dressed down in a white tank and matching shorts, Jessica kept a low profile in a baseball cap as she exited the trendy boutique, which boasts on its website, 'We create an atmosphere that helps uplift your internal state so that you'll feel more at home the moment you walk through our door.'
Alba doubled down on her love of crystals in a 2021 Instagram post, sharing a photo of herself clutching a massive purple amethyst and writing, 'Let's be real—I've always been into collecting crystals. They are powerful and healing in their own unique ways and I've found that they help me keep my mind right by making me feel more grounded and connected to myself.'
The Honey star also gushed about her crystal collection in a 2020 interview with New Beauty, saying, 'I love crystals—they hold so much power and energy.'
Now, with a new man in her life, it looks like Jessica is stocking up on good vibes.
The crystal haul came hot on the heels of Jessica and Danny's romantic Italian dinner date on Wednesday night, where the pair were spotted cozying up and looking completely smitten.
Jessica rode shotgun while her 32-year-old beau took the wheel, eyes glued to the road—but the grins on their faces said it all. Whatever started off casual is now heating up fast.
Though the relationship may have begun under the radar, it's quickly showing signs of something more. Despite Jessica's early reluctance, things are clearly shifting.
A source told DailyMail.com, 'Jessica's romance with Danny has taken a surprising turn. What started out as a summer fling feels like it's getting more serious, although she still wants to take things slow.
'But at the end of the day Jessica has never been one to play the field. She's excited to see where this romance is headed.'
The Fantastic Four actress officially confirmed her split from longtime husband Cash Warren, 46, back in January, after speculation swirled for weeks. The pair—who met on set in 2004 and married four years later—filed for divorce in February, though the case is still ongoing.
They share three children: Honor, 17, Haven, 13, and Hayes, 7.
Buzz around Jessica and Danny first kicked off earlier this month when they were seen vacationing together in Cancun, marking the first time they were publicly linked.
The tropical getaway came on the heels of a separate sighting in London, where Alba was caught 'kissing' a mystery man—though it's never been confirmed if that was Danny.
How the two met remains unclear, but a source previously told DailyMail.com that Danny's interest in Jessica has been strong from the jump, even if she's been slower to commit.
'Danny is cool, a nice guy and he is enamored with her, but it is not exclusive,' the insider said earlier this month. 'She's not in that frame of mind. He has a chance to make something out of their connection, but she is taking it all in stride. Right now, she's looking to just have fun.'
Ramirez, a Chicago native, is best known for his Marvel role as Joaquin Torres—the new Falcon—in The Falcon and the Winter Soldier and the upcoming Captain America: Brave New World.
He also played Lt. Mickey Garcia in Top Gun: Maverick and is currently filming Avengers: Doomsday, slated for release on December 18, 2026.

Yet their connection then appeared to take a turn - after Harry pulled Emma for a chat and they enjoyed some new banter about PDA, as fans claimed the brunette's "real mask had slipped." This was exacerbated when she was heard discussing the show's £50K cash prize pot on the ITV2 series. In spin off show Aftersun, host Maya Jama directly asked the TV show star why. She said: "You're one of the few Islanders who have actually mentioned the 50k." Emma replied: "We have broken the fourth wall," to which Maya said: "You did, can you clarify what you meant by that? "I think you said something after like 'ahh play along' something like that?" Emma giggled before she said: "Look I'm glad you brought that up because the whole thing was a complete joke. "Harry and I had nothing else to talk about and we are both really playful but I can confirm there was no game plan and we were just being silly. "None of it was serious."

However, after seeing the clip for herself at the show's Grafties, Helena had said on Friday's episode that she wished she could apologise to her former love rival. She also raged: "I didn't expect you to be sitting with your ex-girlfriend and saying you'll get back into bed with one another on the outside.

'I just wanted to say that she absolutely doesn't, there is no need to apologise to me for how she spoke to me. We both could have handled things better and I'm no angel.' Proving there was no issue between them, she concluded: 'So no need to apologise, all good, no bad blood.' 6 The pair dated prior to finding fame on the ITV2 show Credit: Instagram 6 She told how their discussion was a 'complete joke' Credit: Shutterstock Editorial

Country star causes outrage after singing for women to 'give up rights' and 'tale a slap' in controversial talk show appearance
An American musician sparked outrage after singing she would 'give up a few rights' and 'take a slap' if it meant she'd be treated more respectfully by men - in some divisive lyrics. Country star Jessie Murph, 20, performed the controversial tune on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, with the lines yearning for her beau to 'love her like it's 1965'. Her ballad was also nostalgic for a time period where courting gentlemen were 'handwriting letters' and 'showing up at the door with flowers' instead of 'hit[ting] [women] up on Snapchat ' at 2am. The star donned a Priscilla Presley beehive and a baby pink mini dress with patterned tights as she danced on a stage with a retro sofa in what appears to be a recreation of the 'tradwife' lifestyle, charming husband on hand. The term refers to women who perform 'traditional' gendered roles, often likened to the archetypal 1950s 'housewife'. Recent interest in the aesthetic has seen millions on social media calling for girls to ditch corporate life and instead, dedicate their days to cooking, cleaning, wearing modest and feminine dress, and practicing traditional etiquette - as well as being submissive to their husbands. Jessie's tune attracted fury online, with many branding the remark 'tasteless' for making light of a time in which women endured horrific misogyny. In both England and the US, marital rape was still legal during the era, and women could not open their own bank account, among other restrictions. 'In 1965, it was legal for men to rape their wives. I don't care if this is meant to be ironic or satirical or whatever, I absolutely hate it,' one commenter on social media penned. Another added: 'Like what does loving like it's 1965 even mean? Getting your a** beat? having no rights is romantic? I hate the white woman 50s-60s "aesthetic".' A third simply exclaimed: '"I think id give up a few rights if you would just love me like it's 1965" SORRY?????' 'Call me too woke but "I would give up rights if you love me like it's 1965" at a time where women are actually losing rights is so insane???' another offered. Others similarly agreed, writing: 'Has anyone else heard the song 1965 by Jessie Murph? 'Read the lyrics, it's literally far right propaganda that is encouraging women to give up their rights. People are saying it's satire but given everything going on, why say this while we are literally at risk of losing our rights ??'. She's not the only performer to have attracted backlash for similar aesthetics in recent months. In June, Sabrina Carpenter announced her new album Man's Best Friend - but the cover art for the upcoming release sparked fierce criticism from fans. During an Instagram Live, the 26-year-old pop singer shared a video of herself flipping through a stack of records by Donna Summer, ABBA, and Dolly Parton, before stopping on her own, revealing Man's Best Friend. Jessie's lyrics attracted fury online, with many believing the remark was tasteless and made light of a period of horrific misogyny for women Earlier this year, Jessie turned up at the ACM Awards 2025 in Texas with a baby piglet in her arms The teaser gave a peek at the album cover, showing Carpenter on all fours while a person dressed in black slacks — whose face is not visible — pulls her blonde hair. She also posted a close-up image of a heart-shaped dog collar engraved with Man's Best Friend. The highly sexualized and provocative album art quickly drew backlash, and she later released a more conservative alternative. After her performance, Jessie thanked the Tonight show for a 'dazzling' and 'grand time'. The Alabama-born singer first rose to fame from uploading vlogs and song covers to TikTok and YouTube - which led her on to releasing her two albums: That Ain't No Man That's the Devil in 2024 and Sex Hysteria in 2025. She also received backlash when the music video for her song, 1965, was released - with some accusing the footage of being pornography, Taste of Country reported. In the retro-inspired clips that shows a family around a table - and Jessie forlornly singing to a child - as there is also a brief shot of a couple having sex. The clip - which has to have age verification to be watched - drew comments like 'the fact that YouTube removes videos for way less and this is still up is insane' and having a child in this video, especially just before a sexual scene, is wild'. The track also includes risque lines like 'I might get a little slap-slap, but you wouldn't hit me on Snapchat' and 'I would be twenty, and it'd be acceptable for you to be forty'. Jessie resorted to taking to TikTok to insist that 'the entire song is satire', quipping: 'Are y'all stupid?'. It's not the first time Jessie sparked attention in the media. In May, the singer turned heads at the ACM awards 2025 after she bizarrely rocked up on the red carpet with a baby pig. Talking to Entertainment Tonight before the show, she introduced the 'little guy' as Wilbur. 'I just decided that I wanted a pig, and I've always wanted one my whole life,' she explained. 'I've always wanted a mini pig, and then I find out that miniature pigs don't exist.'

Nicola Benedetti on marrying a man 25 years her senior
As one of the best-known violinists in the world, Nicola Benedetti enjoys a stellar public profile. Yet she has maintained a strict secrecy around her private life, even though it has been long-rumoured in music circles. Now she has confirmed for the first time that she is married to Wynton Marsalis, the celebrated jazz musician who is 25 years her senior, and they have a baby daughter. They met professionally when she was 17 and he was 42, and much later began a romantic relationship. Benedetti has publicly shared the joys of motherhood but did not, until now, confirm the identity of the father. Speaking to the Telegraph, Benedetti, 38, said of her marriage to Marsalis, 63, who counts former US president Barack Obama among his admirers: 'I think it's pretty much out there now. I really don't care any more if people want to write about it or not.' Explaining why she has not talked about her relationship with Marsalis, with whom she has collaborated on musical projects for many years, Benedetti said: 'I don't tend to discuss my private life because people don't come to my concerts because of whom I'm in a relationship with. They come because I play the violin.' Benedetti was 17 when she travelled to New York to attend the American Academy of Achievement summit as a student-delegate. A year earlier, she had won the BBC Young Musician of the Year competition. She performed in the company of Marsalis, a trumpeter who was the first jazz musician to receive the Pulitzer Prize. 'When we met then, I was already a huge fan, and we just kept in touch as good friends,' Benedetti once explained. Marsalis has said they felt 'a certain type of kinship'. Many years later, Marsalis wrote a violin concerto for Benedetti, although in a joint interview they joked about not remembering who had proposed the idea. Marsalis said: 'It's like a scene from When Harry Met Sally. I don't know if I said it or she said it.' They have continued to collaborate and perform together. Benedetti, from Ayrshire in Scotland, is artistic director of the Edinburgh International Festival and had her daughter in May 2024. Marsalis also has a teenage daughter and two adult sons from previous relationships. The 'Pied Piper' of jazz Marsalis started playing the trumpet at the age of six and went on to become a key figure in the jazz renaissance of the 1980s. He has been credited with rekindling interest in the genre, has been referred to as the 'Pied Piper' of jazz and won nine Grammy awards during his career. He is currently the artistic director of Jazz at the Lincoln Center, in New York. Benedetti told the Telegraph that she has begun to question her upbringing, during which her mother made her and her older sister practise the violin for three hours every day during the school holidays. 'My daughter is only one, but my sister has two children, aged three and five, and seeing her experience has definitely made me consider my own childhood,' she said. 'But both of us have a realistic, even a positive view of our upbringing. It was very strict – we feared upsetting our parents, or doing the wrong thing – but we also knew we were loved to death by our mum and dad.' She believes that today's young people are less willing to make the sacrifices required to become a world-class musician, saying: 'I think young people have become used to a lack of basic discipline in their daily lives – and that really worries me.'
