The Fantastic Four star confirmed that she is expecting her first child with beau Cash Warren in late spring 2008.
"I can confirm that Jessica and Cash are expecting a baby in late spring, early summer," usmagazine.com quoted her rep Brad Cafarelli, as saying.
This will be the first baby for both Alba and Warren.
The couple met while she was making Fantastic Four in 2004
Alba, in an interview with Cosmopolitan in March 2005 gushed that her beau could very well be 'The One'.
"He might be The One. The first week that we kind of got together, he gave me a note and signed it with a dollar sign, because his name is Cash. It just said, 'I really, really like you.' And that was exactly how I felt at the time."
The two briefly split in July this year, but were back together by August.
