In an interview with InStyle for their cover story which was shared on Tuesday, March 11, Johansson opened up about her decision to shield her two children, 10-year-old Rose and 3-year-old Cosmo, from the public eye.
"But if anyone knows me, I definitely over-share. I'm not a closed book, you know?"Johansson, 40, admitted to the outlet. "But I am a private person in the sense that I value my close friendships. My family is very precious to me, as is their privacy."

She elaborated on the importance of protecting her children's anonymity, emphasizing, "The thing about being a public figure is that the idea of being recognizable and celebrated feels fun, but then you can never stuff it back in the bottle. There's a massive loss to that."
Johansson also recalled a conversation she had with Rose, who was eager to make videos for the actress's beauty brand, The Outset. Johansson explained that, at 10 years old, Rose's involvement in the public eye wasn't the best choice yet. "I think preserving that for as long as possible until it's someone's choice, that's the choice I make as far as my kids go," Johansson said.

The Black Widow actress shares Rose with her ex-husband, Romain Dauriac, and Cosmo with her current husband, Colin Jost. Johannsson was married to Dauriac from 2014 to 2017, and started dating Jost, 42, shortly after. The two wed in 2020 and welcomed Cosmo a year later. She revealed in a 2022 appearance on The Kelly Clarkson Show the meaning behind her children's names. "They are both flowers," she stated to Clarkson. "Not a lot of people make that connection. Cosmo is a really sweet little flower that comes in different shades of orange and yellow."
