Regular Guys Who Had Kids With Famous Celebrities

We read so much gossip about high-profile couples that it's easy to forget that some celebrities date just normal or significantly less famous people. With the strains that celebrities go through because of their public images, it seems to make sense that they would date people who understand the struggles of the industry.

However, some celebrities end up finding love with low-profile citizens that most of us have never heard of. Here are some regular guys who ended up having kids with famous women:

Scarlett Johansson's ex-husband and father of her daughter Rose-Dorothy was pretty unknown prior to marrying the actress. She started dating Romain Dauriac in 2012, and they married in 2014 shortly after the birth of their daughter.

Dauriac was born in France, and he owns a creative advertising agency. The couple divorced in 2017, with Scarlett stating that she doesn't think she believes in marriage. However, she is currently engaged to SNL writer Colin Jost.

Christina Aguilera has been in the spotlight since her first gig on the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse in 1993, so dating outside of the limelight might be a bit of a relief. She's had two children with non-stars. She had her first child, Max, with 2005-2011 husband Jordan Bratman, a marketing executive.

She's currently engaged to Matthew Rutler, who she met in 2010 when he was working as an assistant on her film Burlesque. The two share five-year old daughter Summer.
