Newly engaged Scarlett Johansson has been looking to settle down and marry for some time, according to her close pal Roland Mouret.

Despite being only 23 and one of the most desired woman in Hollywood, designer Mouret says Scarlett has had her heart set on marriage as long as he’s know her.

“It's something she's really wanted - to meet someone and get married,” he tells People magazine.

Of her match with Canadian star Ryan Reynolds, Mouret - who was pictured with Johansson this week - comments, “She's just such a great person and I'm so happy for her and wish her every happiness. She deserves it.”
