They were spotted passionately locking lips during a night out in New York earlier this week.

And Scarlett Johansson is said to have celebrated her 33rd birthday with love interest Colin Jost.

The Avengers actress, 33, was seen enjoying a romantic dinner for two with the comedian at the Tavern in East Hampton, New York on Tuesday, according to Page Six.

An insider told the website the pair mingled at a corner table and that Scarlett was 'pleasantly surprised by a birthday candle on her dessert.'

Rumours of their romance took flight after last year's season finale of Saturday Night Live - where Colin is the head writer.

Since then, they have been spotted out together around New York City, but have never publicly confirmed they are an item.

However, on Sunday, they were spotted kissing in the rain as they wrapped their arms around each other in the Big Apple.

Meanwhile, Colin heaped praise on Scarlett when he hit the red carpet for the Emmy show in September.

'She's wonderful. We're - she's working, so otherwise she'd be here,' he told Lauren Zima of Entertainment Tonight.

'Well, like, she's, you know, she's pretty cool,' he continues. 'We're, you know, I - it's hard to have a lot of complaints. She's pretty awesome.'

Colin, who has never been married before, recalled that 'The first time she hosted was the first year I was a writer on the show, and so we've kind of known each other since then. And she's, you know, she's the best.'

And Scarlett had finalized her second divorce earlier that month.

She and her latest ex-husband, French ad man Romain Dauriac, married in 2014 and separated last year. They have a three-year-old daughter called Rose.

Before Romain, Scarlett was married from 2008 until 2011 to Ryan Reynolds, who has since gone on to marry Blake Lively and have two children with her.
