Colin Jost has reportedly confirmed a rumor that’s been floating around for weeks – he and Scarlett Johansson are expecting their first child together!

Over the weekend, Colin did a stand-up show over at Ridgefield Playhouse in Connecticut where he reportedly let the audience in on their exciting news.

According to Us Weekly, a member of audience dished that during his set, the Saturday Night Live comedian happened to share: “We’re having a baby. It’s exciting.”

Scarlett and Colin wed in a “small and intimate” ceremony back in October. The actress, who’s also mom to six-year-old daughter Rose whom she shares with ex-husband Romain Duriac, began sparking pregnancy rumors sometime around June – fans noted that she was noticeably absent from in-person events leading up to the release of her film Black Widow and the virtual interviews she did were also framed with close-up shots that only showed her from the shoulders up.

At the time, a source told Page Six, “Scarlett is actually due soon, I know she and Colin are thrilled.”

And another source added that the actress has been “keeping it very quiet,” noting that, “She has been keeping a very low profile.”

LA, who’s a doctor of physical therapy, has been candid about her pregnancy journey with fans, revealing that she struggled with extreme morning sickness.

“I got so incredibly sick,” she said in the video of her pregnancy. “I started violently throwing up all day, every day.”

Doctors diagnosed her with hyperemesis gravidarum, and was put put on medication. While the meds “kind of helped, ” the vomiting lasted for over two and a half months.

She also opened up about how Grant supported her through what she described at the time was “the hardest thing physically I’ve ever experienced in my entire life.”

“He just did absolutely everything,” she said, adding, “Support is very important in making it through that.”

At the time, LA shared that she hoped sharing her pregnancy journey could send some encouragement to moms-to-be going through a similar experience.

“To all the women who went through or are going through HG or fertility problems,” she captioned the video. “I feel you. You are a badass. You got this.”
