EXCLUSIVE Jessica Alba's new romance with Top Gun's Danny Ramirez 'takes a surprising turn' as they enjoy date night

She may have been embracing life as a single woman following the end of her marriage earlier this year, but Jessica Alba 's love life has recently taken a shocking twist. In new photos obtained exclusively by the actress was spotted enjoying dinner with new boyfriend Danny Ramirez at the Italian restaurant Alba in Los Angeles on Wednesday evening. Jessica, 44, sat in the passenger's seat as her boyfriend, 32, maneuvered the car out of the area his eyes focused on the road. And neither could keep themselves from smiling as they made their exit together. While the relationship reportedly began as a casual one for the actress, these new photos indicate the romance may be on the way to becoming something significant. And an insider told that the relationship does appear to be headed in that direction - however the star isn't keen to rush things. The source said: '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 pair shared grins once inside their vehicle, and while Danny's face turned serious as he entered driving mode, Jessica's smile lingered for at least a moment longer. The duo appeared to keep it casual for their night out, but Jessica still looked radiant as usual. The Into the Blue star coated her gorgeous face with a touch of makeup yet injected a bit of glam with chunky gold earrings and a dainty French tip manicure. Danny, meanwhile, sported a denim jacket, glasses, and a 'Pendry' cap. Jessica, who had not been pictured wearing her wedding rings for months, confirmed her separation from Cash Warren, 46, in January, following weeks of speculation about the state of their relationship. They filed for divorce in February - it has not yet been finalized. The pair met on the set of the Fantastic Four in 2004 and married in 2008. They share two daughters, Honor, 17, and Haven, 13, and a son, Hayes, 7. Danny and Jessica - who have an 11 year age gap - first raised eyebrows after they enjoyed a trip to Cancun together earlier this month. Their sighting came two months after she was spotted 'kissing' a mystery man in London, however it is unclear if that was Danny. It is unclear how Jessica and Danny met. A source previously revealed to that while Danny has been 'enamored' with Jessica, she is not in a 'frame of mind' for an exclusive relationship. '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.' Danny, who was born in Chicago, Illinois, is best known for his role in the Marvel Cinematic Universe as Joaquin Torres/Falcon in the Disney+ show The Falcon and the Winter Soldier and the film Captain America: Brave New World. The handsome actor also starred in Top Gun: Maverick as Lieutenant Mickey Garcia. He is currently in the midst of filming Avengers: Doomsday, which is set to drop December 18, 2026. Danny studied acting at New York University Tisch School of the Arts, after deciding to switch his focus from becoming an athlete to an actor due to injuries. Danny got his start in 2016 after making his acting debut in The Affair and also Blindspot that same year. TMZ was the first to report his identity. However, it was reported earlier this month that Jessica is not dating anyone 'seriously,' according to People's sources. 'She's been getting a lot of attention since the divorce. She's flattered and definitely enjoying being single again,' an insider insisted. 'She's gone on some dates, but it's nothing serious - she's focused on herself and her kids. She's not interested in a relationship right now,' the source added. Jessica announced her split from Warren in January with a statement about embarking on a 'new chapter' as an individual. 'I've been on a journey of self-realization and transformation for years — both as an individual and in partnership with Cash. I'm proud of how we've grown as a couple and in our marriage over the last 20 years and it's now time for us to embark on a new chapter of growth and evolution as individuals,' she posted to Instagram. 'We are moving forward with love and kindness and respect for each other and will forever be family. Our children remain our highest priority and we request privacy at this time.'

The couple were perfectly coordinated in matching linen shirts as they cuddled up at a bustling waterfront restaurant.

The pair reportedly met in Aspen, Colorado, while Willow was holidaying with her father and brothers over Christmas, and they went public with their relationship in May this year. 'Willow has fallen for a wealthy Argentinian polo player who works in business banking and finance – his name is Genaro Abdala, and if she's smitten, he's head over heels!' a source told the publication. 'His family have a place in Spain, and he's been treating her to lavish trips to Ibiza – she's living the high life.' Friends and family took to the comments section to gush over the photos, including her stepmother Jasmine Stefanovic, who wrote: 'Love these.' Others chimed in with compliments like, 'Wow, you look so good' and 'Oh my!' Willow has been documenting her enviable travels across Europe with her 11,000 Instagram followers, most recently attending a dreamy Italian wedding in June. The social media star recently embarked on an overseas venture, moving to London to study fashion. She began her studies in the UK last year and is currently undertaking a degree at the London College of Fashion. It recruits on a global scale and its list of alumni reads like a Who's Who of the creative industries, from illustrator Quentin Blake to Florence Welch of Florence and The Machine.

Pizza Bros

✍️ Time Out Sydney never writes starred restaurant and bar reviews from hosted experiences – Time Out covers restaurant and bar bills, and anonymously reviews, so that readers can trust our critique. Find out more, here. In case you were wondering, the bros behind 'Pizza Bros' are actually real-life brothers, Joey Pepperoni and Marty McFly. And I'm not joking about their names, either – they got them legally changed to live and breathe the dream. The bros have worked at a bunch of top Sydney pizza joints – including Bella Brutta, Gigi's and The Dolphin Hotel – before starting Pizza Bros as a pizza truck in 2019. Their first bricks-and-mortar venue opened on the rooftop of T he Imperial Erskineville at the end of 2023 – and I say: long may the good times (and slices) continue. The vibe By 6pm on a Saturday, every table at Pizza Bros is pretty much full, plus there's a bunch of people hanging by the bar knocking back Spritzes and ales and just basically having a whale of a time. Under the red-and-white striped awning at the back of the space is where the magic happens. You'll see the chefs cooking the pizzas in that bedazzled gold wood-fired oven – a wink to their home in the fabulously queer safe space, The Imperial Erskineville. It's a pretty casual, laid-back affair, and that includes the service, with ordering done by QR code, and you head up to the bar to get your table water. It feels like you're at a pizza party at your friend-of-a-friend's house – and (mostly) anything goes. The food The guys use a combination of Australian and Italian flour to create their pizza dough, which is then left to ferment for 72 hours before it's topped with quality ingredients and cooked in the wood-fired oven at 400°C. The result is an excellent puffy and chewy crust with trademark charred leopard spots. One of their signature pizzas is the hot honey, which comes dotted with 'nduja, melted fior di latte, ricotta, a sprinkle of toasted and nutty sesame seeds and a drizzle of hot honey. It hits the sweet, salty, creamy and fiery notes, but – and I can't believe I'm saying this – it's too ricotta-heavy for me. Better is the quality beast, which features a tomato base, slivers of sweet red onion, LP's salami and pork sausage fragrant with fennel. Elsewhere, there's the Rick and Morty, which sees LP's mortadella paired with pesto and garlic oil; the waterword, which has a kick thanks to fermented chilli alongside prawns and pancetta; and if you feel like going all out, the cacio e pepe comes with double cream, black truffle, pecorino and parmesan. There's also a Margherita for those who like to stick to the classics. Snacks on the menu wouldn't go astray, nor would a salad or a garlic and cheese pizza in lieu of garlic bread – but these bros are serious about pizza, and the proof is in the (excellent) pie. The drinks The booze menu features all your usual suspects, including a bottle of sparkling from South Australia for a steal at $50, and a solid selection of wines by the glass for $10 (in this economy?!). The cocktail menu has all the cheeky classics – including a Pornstar Martini – and there's a bunch named after popular Sydney drag queens, like the Etcetera Etcetera, made with Beefeater gin, Limoncello, orgeat and Peychaud's, for a sweet and citrusy punch. Time Out tip: Firstly, you gotta book – I've tried to walk in a bunch of times and every table was full (which I love to see – go Sydney hospitality, you good thing). And if it's your first time, make sure you enjoy a drink or two at The Impy's downstairs bar. It's one of the best places in Sydney to see wonderful drag queens in action – just be sure to wear your favourite colours.
