Johansson was married to Reynold for two years and despite her lack of desire to do it again, she said she enjoyed her previous marriage.
"I got married when I was young and it was incredibly romantic and I liked being married, actually. But it is different. It's hard to put into words, " she said.
In the same interview Johansson admitted to being in a happy relationship, but said that she did not find marriage necessary and was not looking forward to having children anytime soon.
"I'm not having kids any time soon," she continued. "I'm in a nice relationship, I'm working a lot and, like I said, it's not important to me."
"To me," continued Johansson, "being in a functioning relationship doesn't mean you have to be married."
Rumors that the actress was engaged to Dauriac began earlier this week. But a rep said Thursday that the actress is "not engaged nor close to being engaged." Reynolds recently married his longtime girlfriend, Blake Lively.
