Natalie Portman and ex Benjamin Millepied met while working together on the set of The Black Swan in 2009. While Benjamin, then a New York City Ballet dancer, provided choreography, Natalie would ultimately fall for him and go on to win an Academy Award for the role of a lifetime as a tortured ballerina named Nina. The couple married in 2012, after welcoming their first child, son Aleph, in 2011. Their daughter Amalia joined the family in 2017.
Though they’ve kept their family life intensely private, Benjamin and his Oscar-winning wife have been a favorite of red carpets all over the entertainment industry throughout their relationship. However, in mid-2023, reports of Benjamin’s alleged affair circulated, and the couple eventually split.
In April 2026, Natalie announced that she was pregnant with her third child, her first with partner Tanguy Destable.
