The 43-year-old actress was spotted having dinner with Andrea Iervolino, an Italian producer working on her new film, at the Bolognese Restaurant on Monday evening.
The duo enjoyed a tasty meal at the eatery before heading out together in Andrea’s white Audi.
Jessica showed off her bare ring finger, but she’s been seen without the accessory before and wasn’t wearing it last week while soaking up the sun on the beach during her family trip to Mexico.
The star opted for a black coat, turtleneck and flowing long necklace.
Andrea produces Maserati: The Brothers, the sports car biopic starring Alba, Michele Morrone, Anthony Hopkins and Andy Garcia.

The film “chronicles the journey of the Maserati family from its founding in 1914 to becoming a renowned Italian luxury car manufacturer alongside rivals Ferrari and Lamborghini,” according to IMDb. Oscar winner Bobby Moresco directs.
In a statement obtained by TermAndrea said of the project: ‘Working with such an extraordinary cast and filming in an iconic place like Cinecittà is the perfect way to honor the legacy of the Maserati family. Furthermore, with Tuscany Film Studio’s VR technology, we are creating an innovative film experience that is deeply rooted in Italian heritage.”
Production on the project began last month and filming would take place at the Cinecittà studios in Rome, in addition to the Modena and Bologna locations, according to Deadline.
Jessica returns to work after enjoying a getaway to Puerto Vallarta, Mexico with her husband Cash Warren and their children Honor, 16, Haven, 13, and son Hayes, six.
She shared photos from their trip to her Instagram on Monday, which included lots of fun beach shots, along with a photo of Jessica and her daughters posing with Cash as the photographer.
“Mexico with my mains,” she captioned the post.
In June, Jessica revealed that if her children decided to pursue a career in showbiz, she admitted she would prefer them to step behind the camera.
She told me People: ‘The thing is, I think if you tell your child something, he or she will do the opposite, right? If they want to be a performer, they can be a producer and writer, or director.”

She continued, “I think having that leadership role is really important for the arts and being part of the arts in a way where they feel like they can have more autonomy and more dignity.”
While Jessica and Honor are now close, in an interview with Really simple in January, the Fantastic Four star revealed that she and her daughters were going to therapy together, admitting that it “put her under control” as a parent.
“Eer was probably 11, and we fought about stupid things all the time,” Jessica admitted to the magazine.

‘And I thought: I don’t want to live like this. This isn’t fun. I didn’t want a wedge to come between us.
“As her mother, if I say something, she will hear it as an argument or as an attempt to control her.
‘I wish there was someone who could explain things in a way that I couldn’t.
“What I said to Honor was, ‘I want to be a better parent to you, and this is your forum to basically talk about everything you do and everything I do.’
