Johansson and the Saturday Night Live star got together in early 2017 after Johansson appeared on the show, playing Ivanka Trump of all people.

It has been rumoured that Kate McKinnon, a fellow SNL comedian and star of the 2016 Ghostbusters reboot, set the couple up and encouraged them to go on their first date.

They've stepped out together plenty of times since then, making their public debut in November of 2017 during an episode of SNL when they were spotted piling on the PDA.

The pair most recently appeared on the red carpet together for the premiere of Avengers: Endgame last month, Johansson starring as Black Widow in the box office hit.
