Scarlett Johansson may have shared a gorgeous, surprise kiss with her Jurassic World Rebirth co-star and Bridgerton sweetheart Jonathan Bailey at the premiere for their blockbuster movie, but her romantic life lies elsewhere.
The Black Widow star is actually married to comedy writer Colin Jost, whom she met on the set of Saturday Night Live and has collaborated with many times. Couples who work together stay together.
Has the Queen of Love Island… found love?
Here's what we know about ScarJo's current relationship status and a brief rundown of her dating history.
Who is Scarlett Johansson married to?
The actor is married to Saturday Night Live co-head writer Colin Jost, whom she first met in 2006 when she hosted the comedy show. They began dating in 2017, got engaged in May 2019, and married in October 2020. They also share one son named Cosmo.
"The first time she hosted was the first year I was a writer on the show," Colin previously said. “So, we've kind of known each other since then … she's the best.”
Last month, she hosted SNL in a rather cute full-circle moment. At the end of the show, when she joined her castmates for closing credits, Colin ran out and handed her a bouquet of roses and gave her a kiss.
During a sketch inspired by her upcoming film Jurassic World Rebirth, they even shared a couple-related joke. “Hey, babe. I had a sketch idea I wanted to pitch you. Maybe it’s one where we, I don’t know, finally kiss?” Jost asked. To which Johansson screamed, “No!”
She opened up on the Goop podcast in April 2023 about her journey before her relationship with the SNL writer. "I didn't know what I wanted or needed from somebody else. I think identifying those things was a game-changer for me," she said, adding that her relationship with Colin has worked because they "move around the world in the same way." Adorable.
Who else has Scarlett Johansson dated?
Here's a brief rundown of ScarJo's dating history, including some seriously famous exes:
Jack Antonoff: She dated Taylor Swift's producer of choice back in the early Noughties, having met in school and even went to prom together. He's now married to Margaret Qualley.
Josh Hartnett: Scarlett dated the Hollywood heartthrob for 2 years between 2005 and 2007, but they ultimately split due to the pressures of a long-distance relationship. In an interview with Allure in 2006 she spoke of her fondness for him: “Josh is very sweet, he's a good boy. A great person. I'm very lucky, and I'm very happy."
Ryan Reynolds: She started dating the Deadpool star in 2007 and by 2008 they had got engaged and married. They kept their relationship pretty private, but ultimately split after 2 years of marriage in 2010. A statement to People from the couple said: “After long and careful consideration on both our parts, we've decided to end our marriage. We entered our relationship with love, and it's with love and kindness we leave it. While privacy isn't expected, it's certainly appreciated."
Starring Dakota Johnson, Pedro Pascal and Chris Evans, it's very much about the relationship between love and money, and the inevitable connection between the two.
Sean Penn: Scarlett had a brief fling with the actor after her divorce, and attended the White House Correspondents' dinner with him.
Romain Dauriac: The actor made a very chic choice and began dating French journalist Romain in late 2012.
“We met through friends in Paris. It was very romantic. And we became friend," she said in an interview with Parade. "When I'd come back to Paris I would see him. We started dating. He tells me that he learned English in one night! I barely spoke English when we met,' he said. I don't remember that at all. I felt like we were [always] talking the same language. Maybe it was the language of love."
