Scarlett Johansson And Husband Colin Jost Took Date Night To The White House
It truly sounds like something out of a movie, but Scarlett Johansson met her husband, Colin Jost, 14 whole years before they got married. The duo first connected on the set of Saturday Night Live, but didn’t kindle a serious flame until about a decade later. Their story is definitely admirable when it comes to celebrity relationships! Scarlett and Colin now share a son and have been happily married since 2020. Let’s dive into their relationship timeline!
Scarlett and Colin actually met for the first time behind the scenes on the set of SNL. Colin had been a writer for the show when Scarlett hosted.
Now let’s transport to nearly 11 years later! Though they’d known each other for a while, it wasn’t until May of 2017 that Scarlett and Colin had sparked rumors about their relationship.
Scarlett had guest starred on the SNL season finale and joined the cast and crew for a celebratory afterparty, in which Colin was in attendance.
According to Page Six, the duo were seen talking, flirting, and canoodling.
At the time, Scarlett was going through a divorce with a French journalist named Romain Dauriac, with whom she shares one daughter.
Colin confirmed the rumors that he and Scarlett were dating at the 2017 Emmy Awards, telling Entertainment Tonight: “She’s pretty cool… it’s hard to have a lot of complaints, she’s pretty awesome. I’m very happy. I feel very lucky.”
They made their very first public appearance together that November at the American Museum of Natural History Gala in New York City.
Scarlett had settled her divorce and custody over her daughter with Romain Dauriac around this time as well.
Scarlett and Colin stepped out together to many events in 2018, but they looked exceptionally elegant at the 2018 Met Gala. The theme for that year was “Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination.”
Scarlett wore a Marchesa dress with a deep red gradient while Colin sported a classic black tuxedo.
Scarlett’s publicist confirmed her engagement to Colin toAP in May 2019.
Scarlett herself later addressed the engagement during her sixth time hosting SNL, sharing: “This place means so much to me. I have so many friends here and I met the love of my life here.”
