Last month, Alba shared photos of the family's spring break trip to Hawaii. The couple and their kids posed for photos together, and the actress included snaps of the family's excursion to a waterfall to see a rainbow and a sweet selfie with Honor. Back in September 2021, Alba spoke with PEOPLE about how she and Warren have sustained their marriage over so many years. "At different times, there were different things that we needed. Around the time I had the kids, it was like, 'I need [date night] once a week,' " she said. "And he's been like, 'I need you to be present on the weekends and not work.' Over-communicating, maybe that's it." "I don't think we have a secret at all," she added. "We just have to check each other."
