Jessica Alba expecting a baby

Jessica Alba is expecting a baby with boyfriend Cash Warren.

The 26-year-old has been dating Warren since he worked as a director's assistant on the set of her 2004 movie Fantastic Four.

The couple broke up in July, but were believed to have reunited a few weeks later.

Alba's spokesperson Brad Cafarelli said: "I confirm that Jessica and Cash are expecting a baby in late spring, early summer."

The actress recently revealed that she wants to develop a "tough girl" image so she is regarded as more than a pretty face.
