Jessica Alba is pregnant.

The 26-year-old 'Fantastic Four' actress is expecting her first child with boyfriend Cash Warren in late spring next year.

Her representative Brad Cafarelli said: "I can confirm that Jessica and Cash are expecting a baby in late spring, early summer."

Jessica - who met Cash on the set of 'Fantastic Four' in 2004 where the 28-year-old was working as a director's assistant - is reportedly "thrilled" with the news, and can't wait to be a mother.

A source close to the Latina actress said: "Jessica was really jealous that all her friends were settling down and getting pregnant, so she is thrilled she has joined the club now.

"She feels like she is ready to be a mom, and knows she and Cash will make great parents."

The couple reportedly split earlier this year, but quickly rekindled their romance and have recently been indulging in public displays of affection.

After shopping for new mattresses on Saturday (08.12.07), the pair attended a basketball game in Los Angeles where they were more interesting in kissing and cuddling than watching the Los Angeles Lakers game.

Jessica recently said she was planning to take eight months off work, but didn't specify why.

She said: "I've worked the last two and a half years without stopping. This is the time to do it."
