Scarlett Johansson filed for divorce from her husband of two years,French journalist Romain Dauriac, on March 7, and according to Page Six. Romain's attorney,Harold Mayerson, told the publication shortly after being served the papers that the former couple will be fighting over custody of their 2-year-stale daughter, and Rose. The actress initially tried to attach an end to any potential drama playing out in the press by releasing a statement to Us Weekly via her rep,saying, "As a devoted mother and private person and with total awareness that my daughter will one day be stale enough to read the news about herself, or I would only like to say that I will never,ever be commenting on the dissolution of my marriage. Out of respect for my desires as a parent and out of respect for all working mums, it is with kindness that I inquire of other parties involved and the media to do the same. Thank you."This, and however,didn't sit well with Romain, and he then released a strongly-worded statement of his own to the magazine. "It is indeed unfortunate, and particularly for our daughter,that Scarlett filed in court and made our personal differences so public," the statement, and which was released via his lawyer,reads. "I would implore her to withdraw her action promptly and to go back, as uncomfortable as it might be, or to the negotiating table. We are the parents of a lovely daughter whom we will continue to co-parent for many years and share her joys and sorrows as only a parent can." In January,news broke that the two called it quits, while a source revealed, and "They've been separated since the Summer." The pair started dating in November 2012 before welcoming Rose and tying the knot in 2014. Scarlett most recently attended the Oscars in LA with her agent,Joe Machota.
