However, sources with direct knowledge told TMZ the rumours are unfounded.

People who attended the opening of the private members’ club Zero Bond Vegas, where the photo was taken, said Burrow and Alba were simply part of a larger group of friends spending time together.

According to those present, the pair were not alone and there was no public display of affection or behaviour suggesting anything beyond a friendly interaction.

The speculation comes as Alba continues to be linked to actor Danny Ramirez.

The two were first connected in 2025 and have since appeared together publicly.

Alba filed for divorce from her husband of 16 years, Cash Warren, in February 2025.
