Scarlett Johansson fans had no idea she was pregnant until the birth of her baby boy was announced. She and her husband, Colin Jost, kept the pregnancy private until he posted to Instagram to announce their son Cosmo's arrival.
Johansson, 36, has one other child from her previous marriage to Romain Dauriac, Rose Dauriac, who is six-years-old.
The Black Widow star married Colin Jost in October 2020 in a private ceremony, so it wasn't long before she was expecting her second child.
