Scarlett Johansson’s Marriages
Being married three times, Scarlett Johansson has had her fair share of ups and downs in the marriage department. Her first marriage was to Deadpool star Ryan Reynolds back in 2008. Subsequently, Johansson’s second husband, and little Rose Dorothy Dauriac’s father, was to Frenchman Romain Dauriac. Currently, Johansson is married to Colin Jost, the Weekend Update Anchor, on Saturday Night Live. The couple has been married since October 2020.
As Johansson’s first and third marriages were to men in the public eye, you probably know a bit about them. But like so much of her personal life, it’s Johansson’s second husband and baby daddy you probably don’t know as much about.
Getting to Know Rose Dorothy Dauriac’s Father
Rose Dorothy Dauriac’s father, Romain Dauriac, was born in 1982 in France. Romain was at one time the editor of the French urban art magazine Clark. He now owns an independent creative advertising agency in France. He has a net worth of over a million dollars.
Johansson and Romain Dauriac met through a friend and quickly began dating. The couple would date only ten months before marrying in October 2014. The couple wed in Philipsburg, Montana, at the Ranch at Rock Creek. Rose Dauriac was born earlier that year in August in New York City.
The couple seemed a perfect fit together. Besides having a child together, Johansson and Dauriac would become business owners when they founded the gourmet popcorn shop Yummy Pop in 2016 in Paris, France.
Consequently, the couple’s marriage would end in 2017. What seemed to be a lasting relationship appears to have been undone by Scarlett Johansson’s busy schedule, the fact that Romain Dauriac wasn’t a solid English speaker, and Johansson’s reported reluctant feelings toward monogamy.
Rose Dorothy Dauriac’s Personal Life
Rose was born on the 30th of August, 2014, in New York. Her mother, Scarlett, known for her acting role in Black Widow, made efforts to keep her out of the limelight and still keeps her life private. She wants her daughter to live a normal life away from all the attention from media outlets. However, Scarlett talks about Rose on rare occasions, like during interviews or talk shows, where she openly gushes over her.
Rose is currently seven years old and attends the child school. According to some online sources, she weighs sixteen kilograms and is two feet and nine inches tall. During her free time, she loves engaging in hobbies like listening to movies and watching movies. Some of her favorite movies are those with fairy tale themes which make her adore her princess-like costumes.
Apart from her parents, some of the known members of her extended family include her grandparents, great grandparents, and her aunt. Her grandparents are Melanie Sloan, Karsten Johansson, and Jean-Francis Dauriac, while her great grandparents are Barbara Togman, Ejner Johansson, and Leornard Togman. Vanessa Johansson is her mother’s sister, which makes her Rose’s aunt. Also, Scarlett’s new partner, Colin Jost, is part of her daughter’s life.
Scarlett and Romain’s Fallout
Johansson and Duriac started their relationship in October 2012 and swiftly engaged after ten months. The couple was quick to get a baby, and their daughter was born in August 2014. Due to the swift nature of their relationship, they did not get to know each other better before starting a family. Their love burnt out as quickly as it had come up, and the two fell out of love.
In one of the interviews conducted by Parade, Johansson confessed that their differences are what brought them together. However, from the look of things, it seems the contrasts between them led to their fallout. One of the differences between them was the language barrier since Romain only spoke French while Scarlett spoke English. Scarlett made efforts to learn French so she could communicate better with him.
The couple had different career paths that were exact opposites. Scarlett got the peak of her acting career after getting married in 2013, and her schedule became packed. That meant less family time which only made the situation worse. Balancing between work and family life became difficult for her due to her work schedule.
Due to irreconcilable differences between the two, they parted ways in mid-2016. After going separate ways, the two finalized their divorce in 2017. Even though the two had separated amicably, Scarlett went ahead to file court proceedings that led to the legal divorce. After the divorce, Romain asked to have full custody of their daughter.
Custody Battle
According to Romain’s lawyer Mayerson, the French journalist wanted to raise Rose Dorothy Dauriac in Paris, making him request full custody. Romain argued that Scarlett’s work schedule was tight making parenting difficult. On the other hand, Romain’s schedule was suitable for their daughter because he had more time off compared to Scarlett. The journalist went to court to fight for the primary custody of his daughter.
Since Scarlett is a person who loves her privacy, she refrained from talking about her marriage woes and child custody battle with the public. She made a public statement asking the media and other parties involved to refrain from commenting on the issue. After a series of court proceedings, the two finalized their divorce and custody case. However, the details of Rose’s custody were not revealed to the public.
Sharing Custody of Rose Dorothy Dauriac
After the couple’s separation, the pair agreed on an informal co-parenting arrangement. It would not be long till Scarlett Johansson began requesting shorter scheduling periods due to her career. This would cause a rift to develop between Johansson and Dauriac, and the two would go to court to fight for custody of their daughter Rose Dorothy Dauriac.
Romain Dauriac would claim that his and his daughter’s life began to revolve around Scarlett Johansson’s busy acting career. Moreover, he went on to claim that it wasn’t fair to him or Rose to live this way, and Dauriac sought to be the primary guardian of his daughter.
Putting Rose First
Both Johansson and Dauriac did all within their power to shield their daughter Rose Dorothy Dauriac from the public eye amid the custody battle. Johansson would go on to release this statement.
“As a devoted mother and private person, and with complete awareness that my daughter will one day be old enough to read the news about herself, I would only like to say that I will never, ever be commenting on the dissolution of my marriage. Out of respect for my desires as a parent and out of respect for all working moms, it is with kindness that I ask other parties involved and the media to do the same. Thank you.”
Divorce and custody proceedings would be settled later in 2017, though all details remain sealed from the public. The couple seems to peacefully share custody of little Rose Dauriac, both working together to raise their daughter in as much normalcy as possible.
Scarlett Johansson is well known for her shunning social media and choosing to live as low-profile a life as possible. What could have potentially become an incredibly ugly and contentious custody battle with Romain Dauriac over their daughter Rose Dorothy Dauriac, instead ended with Johansson and Romain putting the little girl’s privacy and well-being over their personal feelings for one another. The couple understood and set a good example for others to follow. They show that the child didn’t choose this situation at the end of the day, and they deserve all of the support and love possible.
Conclusion
Sometimes people fall in love quickly and have the perfect relationship that later morphs into engagement and consequently marriage, and the case of Scarlett and Romain is no different. The two fell in love and were later blessed with an adorable daughter, Rose Dorothy Dauriac, born in August 2014. Nevertheless, the French journalist and American actress began to have irreconcilable differences that led to separation and later divorce.
The battle for custody of their daughter started, after the divorce, when Romain wanted full custody of his daughter, citing Scarlett’s busy schedule. Even though the details of the conclusion of the custody case were not made public, it was concluded amicably with the two settings on co-parenting, and now Rose lives with her mother.
