“Ok ok we had a baby. His name is Cosmo. We love him very much,” Jost wrote in a text image.
In true Jost style, the “Saturday Night Live” comedian made light of the situation with a funny second message to his fans.
“Privacy would be greatly appreciated. For all inquires please contact our publicist @chethinks,” Jost wrote referring to his longtime SNL “Weekend Update” partner-in-crime, Michael Che.
Che seemed honored to hold the new title after he updated his Instagram bio with “Cosmo’s publicist.” Fans have since been excited about his new baby duties.
According to Fatherly, Che took to his own Instagram Story to share fans’ reactions to the news of baby Cosmo's arrival. “Your buddy married Scarlett Freaking Johansson and you’re mad we are being nosy??” one person asked.
Another fan wrote, “She’s an A list actress of course we wanna know if she had her baby and if her and baby are ok!! When Rose was born it was plastered everywhere and wasn’t some big secret. Don’t gaslight us, tell us the info Mr. Cosmos Publicist.”
The baby news came only after Jost seemingly confirmed they were expecting during a stand-up set in Connecticut on Sunday.
According to Page Six, a source in the audience revealed that Jost said, “We’re having a baby, it’s exciting.”
Johansson is already mother to 7-year-old daughter Rose Dorothy Dauriac. The "Black Widow" star shares Rose with ex-husband, Domain Dauriac.
