Natalie Portman is pregnant with her third child at 44. The Oscar-winning actress announced the joyful news while in Paris, where she currently resides with her partner, Tanguy Destable.
Portman expressed her excitement, saying, “Tanguy and I are very excited.” This marks a new chapter for Portman, who has two children from her previous marriage to Benjamin Millepied: son Aleph, 14, and daughter Amalia, 9. After finalizing her divorce in 2024 following 11 years of marriage, she began dating Destable in March 2025.
Reflecting on her pregnancy, Portman shared a sense of gratitude. “I know it’s such a privilege and a miracle,” she said. Growing up as the daughter of a fertility doctor, she has always been aware of the challenges many face when trying to conceive. “I grew up hearing about how hard it is to get pregnant,” she noted thoughtfully.
Despite the physical demands of pregnancy, Portman feels surprisingly energetic. She is swimming and practicing Gyrotonics to maintain strength during this time. In France, where full-term is considered to be 41 weeks rather than the typical 40 weeks elsewhere, she quipped about getting an extra week to enjoy her pregnancy: “I guess I get an extra week to be pregnant this time around.”
Professionally, Portman remains busy with two completed projects: The Gallerist, set for release in late 2026, and Good Sex, expected in early 2027. Her passion for storytelling continues even as she embarks on this new journey into motherhood.
Observers are eager to see how this pregnancy will influence both her personal life and professional endeavors. As she navigates these changes, there’s a palpable sense of warmth surrounding Portman’s growing family.
Details remain unconfirmed regarding any further plans or projects as she prepares for the arrival of her third child. For now, the focus is on family—an ever-expanding circle filled with love and anticipation.
