Scarlett Johansson Shares How Colin Jost Keeps Their Marriage ‘Interesting’

Scarlett Johansson has shared an intimate glimpse into her marriage with comedian Colin Jost. She confessed that her husband has a “naughty side” that keeps their relationship exciting.

The actress also opened up about the “pressure” she feels to get her 10-year-old daughter, Rose, an iPhone, revealing that it’s hard for her to process.

Scarlett Johansson, who recently turned 40, said hitting the milestone feels “so liberating” because one takes no thought to what anybody thinks again.

Johansson can’t just seem to get enough of her husband, Colin Jost, describing him as “kind,” “hilarious,” and “loving.”

However, she admitted that he can get mischievous at times as he has a “naughty side” that helps spice their marriage.

“He’s also got his naughty side, you know. That’s why he keeps it interesting,” Johansson said of the “Saturday Night Live” comic on “Live with Kelly and Mark” Tuesday, per Page Six.

Host Mark Consuelos then quizzed her about the Staten Island ferry that Jost bought alongside pal Pete Davidson in 2022, to which Johansson jokingly replied, “That’s the naughty part I was talking about.”

“It is, yep, still decommissioned,” she added.

The couple has been married for four years and welcomed their first son, Cosmo, in 2021. They went public with their relationship at the American Museum of Natural History Gala in 2017, became engaged in 2019, and got married in an intimate ceremony in October 2020.

In her chat with Ripa and Consuelos, Johansson went on to heap praises on her husband for ingeniously using his pricey Staten Islan ferry.

In September, the boat was used as the site for Tommy Hilfiger’s New York Fashion Week show.

“Fashion people are coming on the Staten Island Ferry?” Johansson said of her initial reaction to the event. “I was like, ‘What’s happening with the bathrooms? Surely you renovated the bathrooms.’ And he was like, ‘No, I don’t actually know…'”

However, she recognized, “It was a big success, though.”

“Huge success, so if anybody has, like, a bat mitzvah they need to throw, yeah, please go to Rent-a-Ferry.com,” she joked. “It’ll really make our family happy.”

Elsewhere in her chat on the show, Johansson revealed the “pressure” she faces to keep her children off social media for as long as she can.

The actress talked about getting iPhones for her children: daughter Rose, 10, whom she shares with her ex-husband Romain Dauriac, and son Cosmo, 3, whom she shares with her husband, Colin Jost.

“I have a little guy who’s three, so he’s not on a phone. He’s into Legos,” Johansson said with a laugh, adding, “My daughter’s 10 and so there’s a lot of that pressure coming around now, especially if she’s hanging out with older girls.”

She added that “it’s hard for me to process” the idea of giving children phones.

“I don’t know, I think social media is hard for young people,” Johansson explained. “It’s hard for me to process. I feel like technology is moving so much faster than our human egos can process.”

She then admitted, “I’d rather her wait until she’s an adult to be able to participate.”

The “Black Widow” actress also weighed in on her new age after turning 40 on November 22.

“Well, it’s only been three days, but so far, it’s great,” she said of how it feels to be 40, per People Magazine. “You also don’t care what anybody thinks, which is so liberating. It’s so liberating!”

Johansson also recounted the surprise birthday party Jost threw in her honor.

“He threw me a humungous bash this year,” she revealed. “It was a surprise. And I had all the martinis for everyone, and I can’t wait to see the photos so I can remember the night.”

Johansson noted that many of her “friends and colleagues came from all over the place” and that “it was just, it was magical. And he put it all together!”

Jost is “very good at gift-giving,” she added. “He always buys beautiful jewelry.” She also called the comedian “a great dad” and said she’s “extremely lucky.”

“He’s a kind person and he’s hilarious and thoughtful and loving… But he’s also got his naughty side. He keeps it interesting,” she added.
