Career as a Journalist and Editor
Romain Dauriac started his career as a reporter and journalist for various French publications, covering topics such as urban culture, art, and politics. He became the editor of Clark Magazine, a French magazine that focuses on street art, graffiti, and contemporary art. He left Clark Magazine after a few years and founded his own creative advertising agency, which he still runs today. He also co-owns a popcorn shop in Paris called Yummy Pop with his ex-wife, Scarlett Johansson.
Romain Dauriac Relationship with Scarlett Johansson
Romain Dauriac met Scarlett Johansson in November 2012, in Paris, through a mutual friend, tattoo artist Fuzi UVTPK. The two hit it off right away and went on a lunch date in New York. Despite the language barrier, as Dauriac barely spoke English at the time, the attraction was strong and the couple soon became inseparable. They made their relationship official in 2013 and got engaged in September of the same year. Johansson was spotted wearing a vintage Art Deco-style ring at the Venice International Film Festival.
The couple welcomed their first and only child, a daughter named Rose Dorothy Dauriac, in August 2014. They tied the knot on October 1, 2014, in a secret ceremony in Philipsburg, Montana. They tried to keep their marriage and family life private, but the media attention was inevitable. They were often seen together at red-carpet events, art galleries, and vacations. They also collaborated on their popcorn business, Yummy Pop, which they launched in 2016.
However, things started to go downhill for the couple in 2017, when rumors of their separation surfaced. Johansson filed for divorce in March 2017, citing irreconcilable differences. She also requested primary custody of their daughter, Rose. Dauriac contested the request, claiming that he should be the primary caregiver, as Johansson was too busy with her acting career. The divorce and custody battle became bitter and public, with both parties accusing each other of being unfit parents. They finally reached a settlement in September 2017, agreeing to share joint custody of their daughter and co-parent her amicably.
Scarlett Johansson’s Real-Life Divorce Echoed in ‘Marriage Story’ Movie
Scarlett Johansson, the Hollywood star who plays Black Widow in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, has opened up about how her own divorce from French journalist Romain Dauriac influenced her performance in the Netflix drama ‘Marriage Story’. The movie, directed by Noah Baumbach, depicts the emotional and legal struggles of a couple going through a coast-to-coast divorce. Johansson plays Nicole, an actress who leaves her husband Charlie, a theater director played by Adam Driver, to pursue a career in Los Angeles.
In an interview with Vanity Fair, Johansson revealed that she was going through her own divorce from Dauriac, her second husband, while filming ‘Marriage Story’. She said that the movie helped her process her feelings and heal from the painful experience. She also said that she related to Nicole’s character, who felt like she lost her identity in her marriage and wanted to rediscover herself.
“I was actually going through a divorce,” Johansson said. “I didn’t know what we were going to talk about… I just kind of blew into the room, ordered a glass of white wine and started complaining [to Baumbach]. And he was just listening and very attentive. And then he kind of cut it short and said, ‘Funny you should mention it.’”
“It’s funny, because the first time I got married I was 23… I didn’t really have an understanding of marriage,” Johansson said. “Maybe I kind of romanticized it, I think, in a way. It’s a different part of my life now. I feel like I’m in a place in my life, I feel I’m able to make more active choices. I’m more present, I think, than I’ve been before.”
‘Marriage Story’ has received critical acclaim and several awards nominations, including six at the Academy Awards. Johansson and Driver have been praised for their performances, as well as Laura Dern, who plays Nicole’s lawyer. The movie is available to stream on Netflix.

His Ex-Wife Recently Sued AI Generator for Using Her Likeness Without Permission
Scarlett Johansson, the Hollywood actress who plays Black Widow in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, has filed a lawsuit against an AI generator company for using her likeness without her permission. The company, called DeepFace, claims to offer a service that can create realistic faces of celebrities, politicians, and other famous people using artificial intelligence. The company charges $99 per face and claims to have over 10,000 customers.
Johansson alleges that DeepFace has violated her right of publicity, privacy, and trademark by using her name, image, and voice to promote and sell their product. She also claims that DeepFace has caused her irreparable harm and damage to her reputation, as the generated faces are often used for pornographic, defamatory, or fraudulent purposes. She is seeking an injunction to stop DeepFace from using her likeness, as well as unspecified damages and attorney fees.
DeepFace has not yet responded to the lawsuit but has previously defended its service as a form of entertainment and artistic expression. The company argues that it does not infringe on any rights, as it does not use the actual photos or videos of the celebrities, but rather creates new images based on their features. The company also states that it has a disclaimer on its website that warns users not to use the generated faces for illegal or unethical purposes.
