The digital world erupted with excitement when a photograph featuring actress Jessica Alba alongside Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow made the rounds on social media on March 7. As is often the case when celebrities are pictured together, the internet was quick to jump to conclusions, speculating about a potential romantic link between the two.
Despite the whirlwind of dating rumors, one crucial detail seems to have been overlooked: while Burrow is indeed single, following his recent split from model Olivia Ponton, Alba is very much in a relationship. The actress is currently dating actor Danny Ramirez, effectively debunking the theories of a new celebrity couple.
Amidst the buzz, people began to seek out more information about both Alba and Burrow. Here’s a look at the real story behind the speculations, along with some insights into their backgrounds.
Joe Burrow’s age and net worth
Joe Burrow, born on December 10, 1996, in Ames, Iowa, is the son of Robin and Jim Burrow. Before making his mark in the NFL, Burrow’s football journey began in college. He initially played for the Ohio State Buckeyes from 2015 to 2016 before transferring to Louisiana State University. There, he made a significant impact as the quarterback for the LSU Tigers in the 2018 and 2019 seasons.
Burrow’s performance in 2019 was nothing short of remarkable. He threw for over 5,600 yards and led LSU to triumph in the College Football Playoff National Championship. His stellar season earned him the prestigious Heisman Trophy, solidifying his status as one of college football’s standout talents.
Burrow was selected by the Bengals with the first overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft.
The team saw success with Burrow under center and rewarded him with a five-year, $275 million extension in 2023. That includes $219 million guaranteed, making him one of the highest-paid players in the league. Today, he has an estimated net worth of $50 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth.
Jessica Alba’s age and net worth
Alba was born in Pomona, California, on April 28, 1981, making her 15 years and seven months older than the NFL player.
She first became widely known in the early 2000s after starring in the television series Dark Angel. Her performance earned award nominations and helped establish her as a rising star in Hollywood.
Over the following years, Alba appeared in blockbuster films such as Fantastic Four and Sin City. While acting brought her fame, Alba eventually expanded her career beyond entertainment. In 2011, she co-founded The Honest Company, a business focused on household and baby products marketed as safer and more environmentally conscious. The company grew rapidly and became one of the most recognizable celebrity-founded consumer brands in the U.S.
Today, Alba has an estimated net worth of $100 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth.
Ramirez shuts down rumors that Burrow is dating Alba
As for Alba’s relationship with Burrow, they’re not dating. Per TMZ Sports, the two were actually hanging out in Vegas as part of a larger group.
And just to reaffirm that he and Alba are still very much together, Danny Ramirez shut down the rumors about his girlfriend and Burrow by sharing photos with the Into the Blue star via Instagram on March 8. The carousel of pics was a collection of dates they went on and fancy meals together.
Alba commented on his post with three heart emojis and shared snaps with her beau via her Instagram Stories, which should definitely put those Burrow romance rumors to rest.
