Following a string of high-profile romances with Hollywood stars, Scarlett Johansson’s love life seems to be heading in a new direction. Photos of her with Nate, an advertising executive based in New York City, have sparked speculation that she might be looking for a more low-key partner this time.
The 27-year-old woman was seen totally smitten with her new partner as they strolled through town over the weekend. A source told RadarOnline.com that they are keeping their romance low-key. Her significant other isn’t into the limelight, which she finds refreshing. From the looks of it, the couple has a real connection and it’s obvious they’re head over heels for each other.
Scarlett beamed for the paparazzi while taking a leisurely stroll with her new beau, showing no signs of hesitation in flaunting their budding romance. The actress from Lost In Translation was spotted with Nate over the weekend, sharing a sweet moment as they left the gym together. Breaking things off with Sean back in June after a short-lived five months together, rumors swirled that he wasn’t on the same page about settling down.
Scarlett Johansson and Ryan Reynolds finalized their divorce in a specific month after getting married in September 2008 and announcing their separation in December 2010. Currently, Ryan is dating Blake Lively, while Scarlett previously dated Josh Hartnett in 2006 after meeting on The Black Dahlia set. Rumors have also swirled about Scarlett’s relationship with Joseph Gordon-Levitt, although she has not commented on these rumors.
Recent reports claim that she is making efforts to avoid any awkward encounters with her ex-husband Ryan and his new partner in New York City. As a result, she is considering purchasing a property in London. Sources indicate that the renowned actress visited London last week and consulted with a real estate agent to aid her in locating a suitable apartment. A close friend disclosed, “Scarlett is determined to prevent any uncomfortable run-ins with Ryan and Blake in New York.”
Scarlett has always had reservations about Ryan and Blake collaborating while she was still with Ryan. When in New York, she likes to stay out of the limelight and steer clear of the social scene. Filming in Scotland for a project titled Under The Skin, she is open to the idea of meeting someone special. Scarlett has a soft spot for British men and fantasizes about finding love in the bustling city of London. She has even expressed her admiration for Daniel Craig, deeming him the perfect companion. Yet, a representative made it clear that Scarlett has no intention of relocating to London permanently at this point in time.
