Who’s that guy?

When paparazzi pictures emerged of Jessica Alba looking cozy with a brown-haired gentleman in a London park back in May, people were left scratching their heads.

The individual in the blurry photos was wearing a cap and kept his face turned away from the camera, so it was hard to tell.

“They were hugging and holding hands as they walked through the park together,” an insider told UK’s The Sun. “They rented out some deck chairs and they were sitting on them kissing.”

Now we know the mystery man’s identity, thanks to the investigative team over at TMZ.

Alba, 44, was photographed coming back from a Cancun vacation headed to LAX Sunday with none other than actor Danny Ramirez, 32.

The Chicago native is best known as Lieutenant Mickey “Fanboy” Garcia in “Top Gun: Maverick” and Joaquin Torres/Falcon in “Captain America.” Like his Marvel character (the first Latino Avenger), Ramirez was raised in the 305.

Ramirez moved to Miami at a young age and attended Pitbull’s alma mater Coral Park Senior High School in the Westchester area. He was a big Hurricanes fan growing up, he told Jimmy Kimmel in 2022, while throwing up the “U” with his hands.

As per his official website, Ramirez played soccer at Oglethorpe University in Atlanta, before being sidelined by an injury and pivoting into acting. His first role was as an extra for 2012’s political thriller “The Reluctant Fundamentalist,” which was shooting on the field next to his soccer team.

Ramirez is a frequent visitor to his hometown and we saw him at the Miami Grand Prix at Hard Rock Stadium last year. So we’ll keep an eye out for Alba going forward.

The Honest Company founder filed for divorce from her husband, Cash Warren, after almost two decades together in January. The exes share custody of their three children.

“We are moving forward with love, kindness and respect for each other and will forever be family,” the “Dark Angel” star wrote in a statement at the time. “Our children remain our highest priority and we request privacy at this time.”
