Jessica Alba traded Hollywood premieres for quality time with her youngest this weekend, sharing a series of joyful snapshots from their mother-daughter escape in New York City. On Instagram she wrote, “Mother daughter weekend in NYC with my sweet Havie 🤍💫 We shopped, ate all the things & went to see @curvesmusical (if you’re in town, go see it before it’s too late!!!). Beyond grateful for my girl and these precious memories 🫶🏽.”
Mom-daughter Quality Time In Nyc
Alba, 42, and her daughter Haven Garner Warren—affectionately nicknamed “Havie” and now 11—spent Saturday exploring Manhattan’s trendiest neighborhoods. The pair tackled a lineup of must-visit boutiques, with Alba later posting in her Stories that they uncovered “boutique gems” and indulged in local eats. Fans spotted them posing outside a vibrant storefront and sampling classic New York street food, from soft pretzels to artisanal pastries.
In a nod to keeping balance, Alba has previously emphasized the importance of self-care. Earlier this year she shared a post about breathwork and friendship, writing “Channeling chill – breathwork – friendship and selfcare,” a reminder that even busy moms need downtime amid packed schedules. This mother-daughter weekend clearly delivered on both fun and relaxation.
Broadway Bound
The highlight of the day arrived when Alba and Havie headed to Broadway’s newest show, Curves the Musical. Trending for its fresh choreography and uplifting score, the production seems to have won over the duo: Havie couldn’t stop smiling in an image captured mid-curtain call. Alba urged followers to “go see it before it’s too late,” confirming that the show’s energy is one not to miss.
A quick glance at Alba’s résumé shows just how far she’s come since her breakout role in the early 2000s series Dark Angel. Today she runs The Honest Company, balances a packed acting slate—most recently appearing in Netflix projects—and juggles life as a mom of three. Daughter Haven joins big sister Honor Marie, 15, and little brother Hayes, 6, in front-row seats to their go-go family life.
Beyond the stage, the duo made time for sampling neighborhood cafés. One snap shows them enjoying frothy lattes at a sunlit corner table, while another catches them browsing colorful racks of kid-friendly apparel. Alba’s feed celebrated the simple pleasures: a shared scoop of gelato, matching smiles over a shopping haul, and a spontaneous moment of laughter on a busy sidewalk.
Fans quickly flooded the comments with hearts and praise. Many called it “the sweetest escape,” noting that Alba’s authenticity makes her snapshots feel like a visit with a friend rather than a Hollywood highlight reel. The actress’s ability to share genuine family moments has always been part of her appeal—whether she’s showcasing a new skincare secret, unveiling Honest beauty drops or treating followers to “long weekend vibes.”
As the city lights flickered on, mother and daughter paused to take in the skyline from a rooftop perch. Alba posted a final frame—herself and Havie framed against a dusky skyline—captioned simply with heart emojis, a quiet testament to time well spent.
Across the span of a single Instagram story, Jessica Alba reminded fans that fame and family go hand in hand. In between business meetings and upcoming premieres, these are the slices of life she’ll cherish—and share—with her audience.
Here’s hoping this NYC chapter becomes one of many cherished real-life tales from Alba’s calendar, with many more mother-daughter weekends on the horizon.
