Their paths first crossed in 2006, when Johansson presented an episode of the legendary sketch comedy show. Although their first meeting was brief, it created the groundwork for a deeper bond. Fast-forward to 2017, when Johansson returned to host Saturday Night Live, and the fireworks between Johansson and Jost truly erupted.

Their on-screen chemistry was evident, and whispers of their romantic involvement began to swirl. However, for several months, the pair kept their relationship under wraps and out of the public, allowing their soul connection to grow naturally.

The spark of love

Scarlett’s first divorce was with Ryan Reynolds, and it was a challenge for her. Her 2nd divorce was in 2017 with her ex-husband Romain. Despite the hardships, Scarlett thrived and continued her life by moving on.

She and Colin Jost made their first public appearance as a couple in November 2017 at the American Museum of Natural History Gala in New York City. The occasion verified what many people had suspected, their romance was official. But there was no confirmation since everything was low-key.

Jost describes Scarlett, saying, “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.”

Solidifying their love into lifetime one.

Scarlett Johansson and Colin Jost confirmed their engagement in May 2019, after two years of dating. The pair kept their wedding plans private, and they married in a modest ceremony in October 2020. Their wedding was a key milestone in their relationship and cemented their love for one another.

In December 2019, Johansson graced the stage of SNL for the sixth time, taking the opportunity to express her heartfelt feelings towards her beloved fiancé saying, “This place means so much to me. I have so many friends here, and I met the love of my life here.” She ended her thoughts with a hug and a kiss to Jost.

The continuation of their never-ending happy story.

When Johansson sat down with Drew Barymore’s show, she said, “The timing was just right.” As she and Jost met a long time ago, fate brought them back together once again but this time, they are lovers for life. As Johansson continues to dominate the silver screen, starring in highly anticipated films, while Jost continues to write and entertain audiences with his wit and humor on Saturday Night Live, their love only grew more and more.

Ever since the start of their love, it grew even more. In August 2021, they welcomed their first baby together named Cosmo. As they slowly build their own family, their commitment to love and passion for one another never faded. They are still happily together, attending events and bonding outside Hollywood life making their lives happier than ever.

Divorces are difficult to accept, especially for celebrities, because everyone is watching, but Johansson got through it with the support of her love, Jost. They thrived together because they supported one another. Experiencing a divorce or a hardship is not easy to handle but for Drew Barrymore, it doesn’t mean failure but embracing will open new doors for happiness to come in.
