Jessica Alba celebrates as she and Cash Warren get COVID-19 vaccines following public launch of her The Honest Company.
She has described herself as ‘thrilled’ that her The Honest Company earned a $2 billion valuation after going public on the stock market last week.
And on Wednesday, Jessica Alba had more to celebrate as she and husband Cash Warren got their COVID-19 vaccines.
‘Mom and dad are vaxxed,’ she wrote on Instagram alongside a selfie of the couple wearing masks and holding up their vaccination cards.
Alba, 39, and Warren, 42, married in 2008 and share three children – Honor, 12, Haven, nine, and Hayes, three.
The former Dark Angel and Fantastic Four star had been joined by her family last week in New York City where she rang the bell at the NASDAQ opening to celebrate her brand’s IPO.
Each family member was dressed in a shade of green in a nod to The Honest Company’s much-vaunted ethical approach to consumerism.
On Friday, Alba made an appearance on The Drew Barrymore Show where she spoke about the phenomenal success of the company she co-founded in 2011.
‘I just I feel like this is the beginning of our next chapter and I’m just with my kids and my husband, it’s been such a journey getting to this point and I’m just thrilled.’ Alba, told child star turned TV personality Barrymore.
Asked by Barrymore whether she ever envisioned being a successful business owner as a child, Alba said, ‘No, I mean I had this idea to create this company because it just made sense that people shouldn’t have to choose between what works and what’s good for them.
‘And putting people’s health and wellness and thinking about the planet and sustainability, and then also like diversity and inclusion and representation.
‘And all of those values to me is really I think why we’ve been able to take the business to this point.’
Honest’s offerings include eco-friendly baby products, vitamins, sunscreen lotions and sanitizers that are sold online and through partnerships with brick-and-mortar stores including Costco and Target.
Honest is backed by investment firms Lightspeed, Fidelity and General Catalyst, among others and while Alba has stepped down as chair of the board, she remains a director and also serves as the company’s chief creative officer.
Her 6.1 percent stake in the company is currently worth $124 million.
