Scarlett Johansson 'files for divorce' from French husband Romain Dauriac

After weeks of speculation about the state of her marriage, Hollywood star Scarlett Johansson has filed for divorce from French husband Romain Dauriac.

The New York Post's Page Six broke the news Tuesday stating that the actress's attorney Judith Poller had served the divorce filings on Dauriac’s lawyer Harold Mayerson.

The publication claimed that the formal end of the marriage might lead to a 'nasty custody battle' over the couple's three-year-old daughter Rose.

The NY Post quoted Mayerson as saying that Dauriac 'would like to move to France with his daughter and Ms. Johansson does a lot of traveling.'

'It will be an interesting process,' the attorney added.

Johansson and Dauriac started dating in late 2012 and wed on October 1, 2014, in Montana, following the birth of their daughter.

'The kid was bouncing back and forth,' a source told PageSix.com.

When Dauriac complained that Johansson's schedule was taking precedence, he was allegedly told that 'this is what they do in Hollywood,' the website's source claimed.
