A massive congratulations to them.

Scarlett Johansson and husband Colin Jost have welcomed their first child together.

Jost, best known for his work on Saturday Night Live, shared the news on Instagram just a few days after confirming that Scarlett was pregnant. 

He said: “Ok ok we had a baby. His name is Cosmo. We love him very much. Privacy would be greatly appreciated.”

Jost also included the hashtags ‘wegotawaywithitforalongtime’ and ‘nokidspolicy.’

Black Widow star Scarlett, who is also mother to six-year-old Rose from a previous relationship, married Jost in 2019. The pair had dated for two years.

The couple opted to keep news of their first child quiet throughout the pregnancy, with Scarlett deciding not to attend the world premier for Black Widow in London. She had also been carrying out all press events through Zoom.

“Scarlett is pregnant but has been keeping it very quiet,” a source told Page Six earlier this year. “She has been keeping a very low profile.

“She hasn’t been doing many interviews or events to promote ‘Black Widow’ which is surprising since it is a huge Marvel/Disney release and she is both the star and an executive producer.”

Scarlett shares her daughter, Rose, with ex-husband Romain Dauriac. Cosmo is Jost’s first child.
