In a twist that has left Hollywood and fans around the world completely speechless, Scarlett Johansson has just confirmed she is three months pregnant — but in a shocking confession, she admitted that the baby’s father is not her husband, comedian Colin Jost. The revelation came only minutes after photos of Johansson with a visible baby bump spread like wildfire across social media, sending the internet into total meltdown.
The 40-year-old actress was spotted in New York earlier today, walking casually in a loose black dress and oversized coat. At first, fans thought it might have been a wardrobe choice to hide weight gain or perhaps a movie costume. But the truth emerged when Johansson stopped to greet fans and reporters — her visibly rounded belly was undeniable. When one paparazzo called out, “Scarlett, are you pregnant?” she paused, smiled nervously, and said quietly, “Yes… three months.”
That simple confirmation sent reporters into a frenzy. But it was what she said next that turned a simple pregnancy announcement into one of the most shocking Hollywood moments of the year. “This isn’t Colin’s baby,” Johansson reportedly said, her voice trembling. “It’s complicated, and I don’t expect anyone to understand right now. I’m just trying to do what’s right.”
Witnesses at the scene described the moment as “heart-stopping,” with fans gasping and murmuring in disbelief. Johansson, clearly emotional, refused to answer further questions and quickly got into a black SUV, leaving everyone stunned. Within minutes, the video of her statement went viral on X (formerly Twitter), racking up millions of views and sparking an avalanche of speculation about who the real father could be.
Colin Jost, Johansson’s husband since 2020, has not yet issued a statement. Sources close to the couple, however, say that their marriage has been “under strain” for several months. “They’ve been living separate lives for a while,” one insider told Page Six. “There were arguments about priorities — Colin’s comedy schedule versus Scarlett’s filming commitments — and a growing emotional distance. But nobody saw this coming.”
As the news spread, Hollywood insiders began whispering names — including a famous director Johansson recently worked with, and a mysterious businessman she was seen having dinner with in London earlier this year. Though no confirmation has been made, several tabloids claim that the other man “has deep ties to the entertainment industry and was a frequent visitor on the set of Scarlett’s latest film.”
Friends of Johansson describe her as “torn” but determined to face the truth. “She’s scared, but she’s not hiding anymore,” said a close friend. “Scarlett’s been through so much — fame, heartbreak, constant media pressure. This time, she wants to live honestly, even if it means facing criticism.”
Meanwhile, fans have flooded social media with mixed emotions — shock, disappointment, but also sympathy. One user wrote, “If Scarlett says it’s complicated, it probably is. People forget she’s human too.” Another, however, was less forgiving: “If she cheated on Colin Jost, that’s heartbreaking. He’s one of the good guys in Hollywood.”
Colin Jost, known for his sharp wit on Saturday Night Live, reportedly found out about the pregnancy only recently. According to one source, “He was devastated. Colin truly loved Scarlett. He thought they had weathered the storms. To find out this way — in public — must have crushed him.”
The revelation also reignites memories of Johansson’s tumultuous romantic past — from her high-profile marriage to Ryan Reynolds to her on-again-off-again relationships with several A-list figures. Yet this time feels different. The tone of her statement — raw, emotional, almost confessional — suggests that Johansson may be preparing for a major life change, both personally and professionally.
As of now, Johansson’s representatives have declined to comment further, saying only that the actress “asks for privacy during this deeply personal time.” However, given the intensity of public reaction and the relentless curiosity of the entertainment press, privacy may be impossible to maintain.
For now, fans are left with more questions than answers. Who is the father of Scarlett Johansson’s baby? What does this mean for her marriage to Colin Jost? And how will one of Hollywood’s most beloved actresses rebuild her image after a revelation that has shaken the industry to its core?
Whatever the truth may be, one thing is certain — Scarlett Johansson’s story has just taken a turn no one could have predicted, and the world will be watching every step that follows.
