Scarlett Johansson & Chris Evans News: 'Avengers' Co-Stars Rumored To Be Secretly Dating

"Avengers" co-stars Scarlett Johansson and Chris Evans just recently broke up with their significant others. Johansson filed for divorce from her husband, Romain Dauriac, this March. Incidentally, Evans had just broken up with his girlfriend, Jenny Slate, early this year. Now, there are rumors that the two celebrities are dating after almost a decade of friendship.

A few years ago, "Lucy" actress Scarlett Johansson married journalist Romain Dauriac. They eventually opened a shop together, but Washington Post reported that, recently, Johansson had filed for divorce early this month. Meanwhile, a few months ago, Chris Evans had broken up with his girlfriend, Jenny Slate. Now, both Scarlett Johansson and Chris Evans are single and were spotted together at the 2017 Oscars awards night.

Rumors about the two dating surfaced when the "Captain America: Civil War" co-stars were seated together at the recent Oscars awards night. Sources who were there that night reported that the two asked to be seated together, according to Enstarz. Scarlett Johansson and Chris Evans traded whispered words and smiles all throughout the evening.

The two celebrities have known each other for almost a decade. In fact, they have worked together on several projects like "The Nanny Diaries" and "The Perfect Score" before "The Avengers." Scarlett Johansson and Chris Evans are both good friends so it's not a stretch to imagine the two of them growing closer, especially now that they're both single. Apparently, Johansson's reason for divorce is that the marriage could not be repaired.

The "Her" actress, however, previously told the press that she wasn't ready to jump into another relationship after her divorce. The "Captain America" actor himself has not given an official statement about the Scarlett Johansson and Chris Evans dating rumors. Although their fans would love them to be together, these speculations should be taken with a grain of salt until both parties have given official confirmations.
