Friendly exes! Scarlett Johannson had made a rare, sweet comment about her short-lived marriage to Ryan Reynolds, calling him a “good guy”.
The two movie stars were married between 2008 and 2011. The Black Widow star, 38, rarely talks about her former marriage to Ryan, 46 or former husband Romain Dauriac, but on Gwyneth Paltrow’s Goop podcast, the mom-of-two briefly mentioned her former love when the host asked about her relationship to marriage.
“You’ve been married two times? Three times?” her Avengers co-star Gwyneth asked Scarlett, who confirmed it was the latter to which Gwyneth then exclaimed: “Oh that’s right! I forgot that you were married to Ryan Reynolds! Goals!”

As Scarlett giggled, she quipped: “We weren’t married very long,” although Gwyneth added: “It counts. We love a good Ryan Reynolds in our house.”
“He’s a good guy!” Scarlett shared before revealing that her marriage to Saturday Night Live star Colin Jost works because she realized she needed “fundamental things”.
“I didn’t know what I wanted or needed from somebody else,” Scarlett said. “One of the things I realized was there are certain fundamental things in your own personality, for me, anyway that I had to share with the other
person. You have to compromise all the time and sometimes your lives separate and then come back together, but I never realized [before], ‘Oh, it’s really important for me – I need to be with a compassionate person.'”
