Only recently, "Saturday Night Live" host Colin Jost was supposedly getting cozy with Johansson. The two were seen in full-on PDA mode at his show's wrap party, according to several witnesses. The comedian, however, did not confirm the rumors that he's dating "The Avengers" star. He only stated that he's happy with his personal life.
Meanwhile, the status of Johansson's divorce from Dauriac is still pending in court. The former couple share a daughter, Rose Dorothy, who was born in 2014.
Before her marriage ended, however, Johansson said in an interview with Playboy that she doesn't believe monogamy in marriage works, no matter how beautiful it is to imagine the romance. "I don't think it's natural to be a monogamous person," she said. "It's a lot of work."
She also revealed that she and Dauriac, being a foreigner, went through a lot of struggles and transitions. "Certainly for him—moving here, committing to the States," she said. Dauriac is from Paris, France.
Johansson's marriage to Dauriac is her second. She was also previously married to actor Ryan Reynolds in 2008, until their divorce in 2011.
