Surprise: Scarlett Johansson and Romain Dauriac are newlyweds!

A clerk for Granite County confirms to PEOPLE that the couple married Oct. 1 in Philipsburg, Montana.

Rumors that the stars had secretly tied the knot began when a report surfaced over the weekend that the new parents quietly exchanged vows after welcoming their first child, daughter Rose Dorothy, in September. News of their nuptials comes just after the actress was spotted earlier this month wearing what was speculated to be a wedding band at a fundraiser for Hurricane Sandy victims.

A rep for Johansson declined to comment.

“They kept the wedding a big secret because they both wanted privacy,” a source told the New York Post, adding that the ceremony was held in the States.

It’s a girl!

Scarlett Johansson and fiancé Romain Dauriac have welcomed their first child, her rep confirms to PEOPLE.

Daughter Rose Dorothy was born in New York City. The baby’s middle name is an homage to Johansson’s grandmother, whom she called “the first Francophone in my family” while accepting her honorary César in Paris last February.

“Mother and daughter are doing well,” publicist Marcel Pariseau tells the Associated Press in a statement.

Further information is not being released at this time.

The actress has had plenty to celebrate in her personal life lately, including an engagement that came six months before PEOPLE confirmed in March that the couple were expecting a baby.

“I’m very happy. Being engaged is an exciting time to enjoy and really savor,” Johansson, 29, has said of Dauriac, a French journalist.

While never addressing the pregnancy, the mom-to-be let her baby belly do the talking, debuting her bump days after the news broke and, more recently, while stepping out for ice cream with Dauriac in mid-August.
