Scarlett Johansson recently shared her personal experience with motherhood, admitting that having a toddler has made her feel like she’s in an “emotionally abusive relationship.” During an episode of The Skinny Confidential Him Her Podcast, the 39-year-old actress discussed some of the challenges she has faced as a mother. Johansson is a mother of two; she shares her eight-year-old daughter, Rose, with her ex-husband Romain Dauriac and has a one-year-old son, Cosmo, with her husband Colin Jost. Johansson explained that her perspective about motherhood changed when her daughter turned three, and it felt like being in an emotionally abusive relationship. She added that it was “crazy” and that she couldn’t reason with her toddler.
She expressed empathy for her child during their mood swings, acknowledging the challenging nature of constantly fluctuating emotions. Scarlett Johansson also reflected on the delightful moments of a child’s baby stage, describing them as adorable and full of love. However, she admitted that raising a toddler can be tough, as they can often be critical of everything you do.
Throughout her journey as a mother, Johansson has been open about the trials and tribulations of raising children, particularly her daughter. In March 2022, she sat down for an interview with InStyle and shared that Rose was in a phase where she loved asking her mom endless amounts of questions.
While discussing some of her daughter’s curious remarks, Johansson shared that her child had questions about common beauty routines such as tweezing eyebrows and curling lashes. Additionally, the actress had to explain the purpose of a tampon and the reason for underwear going up one’s butt crack to avoid visible panty lines. Despite finding it strange, Johansson found a way to answer her daughter’s inquiries.

On The Skinny Confidential Him Her Podcast, she explained why she avoids social media and how it can cause anxiety.
Johansson has revealed that she cannot handle social media due to her fragile ego and vulnerable mental state. She compared herself to a delicate flower and admitted that her anxiety is already overwhelming enough without the added pressure of social media.
