Scarlett Johansson and Colin Jost are “Jost married.”
The couple, who announced their engagement in May 2019, tied the knot in an intimate ceremony over the weekend after three years of dating.
The “Black Widow” star and the “Saturday Night Live” comedian broke the news via the Meals On Wheels America Instagram account on Thursday, which noted that the wedding had taken place with their “immediate family and loved ones” under “COVID-19 safety precautions as directed by the CDC.”
“Their wedding wish is to help make a difference for vulnerable older adults during this difficult time by supporting @mealsonwheelsamerica,” the organization captioned a photo of the Staten Island Ferry with wedding cans edited onto the rear of the vessel.
Just to drive it home, the words “JOST MARRIED” were splashed across the image.
The pair, affectionately or otherwise known as ScarJost, first met on the set of the late-night sketch comedy series back in 2006. At the time, she was returning as a host and he was just a newbie writer, but the two successfully collaborated on a parody sketch of MTV’s “My Super Sweet Sixteen.”
“I remember her being beautiful, smart, sweet, and intimidatingly sophisticated,” Jost said of his first impression of his future fiancée in his recently published memoir. “And she had a grace and a smile that I’ve still never seen in any other human.”
But their connection was strictly platonic at the time, as Johansson soon started dating actor Ryan Reynolds, whom she would later marry before the two divorced in July 2011.
After the “Avengers Endgame” star remarried and then divorced her second husband, Romain Duriac, with whom she shares her 5-year-old daughter Rose, she returned to “SNL” to host once again and sparked a romance with Jost.
