Jessica Alba and Danny Ramirez Watched Spain Beat Argentina in the World Cup Final Together in New Jersey

By

Jessica Alba and Danny Ramirez capped a summer of near-daily sightings by turning up together at the biggest match on the planet. The couple sat in the stands at the New York/New Jersey Stadium as Spain took the trophy from Argentina.

The 2026 World Cup final landed on July 19 at the New York/New Jersey Stadium in East Rutherford, and Jessica Alba and Danny Ramirez were in the crowd for it as Spain beat Argentina. Javier Bardem was in their suite.

Alba, 45, and Ramirez, 33, live in Los Angeles, and they’ve spent the summer racking up frequent-flier miles to be together anywhere but (or do think she has enough money to fly private?). They flew cross-country into JFK on July 2, then kept going to Italy, where they spent days on swimming and paddleboarding off a luxury boat, sunbathed at Hotel Il Pellicano in Porto Ercole, and had an alfresco dinner at Pierluigi in Rome.

The Italy stretch came right after they turned up at Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s wedding weekend, joining the roughly 1,000 guests before heading to Europe.

Back in New York this month, the two power-walked through SoHo on July 18 and hit the Raising Cane’s party at Zero Bond that same night, then returned to Zero Bond again on July 19 before the match.

The travel schedule is a flex on top of a real estate flex. Alba dropped $4.75 million last September on a Spanish-style estate in Beverly Hills, nearly 5,000 square feet with four bedrooms and five bathrooms, terracotta roof tiles, arched doorways, and patios built for golden hour. She’s barely been in it this summer.
