Natalie Portman’s ‘New Life’ With Her Boyfriend Amid Third Pregnancy<\/p>\n
Earlier this month, Natalie Portman<\/a> excitedly confirmed<\/a> that she is expecting a baby with her partner, musician Tanguy Destable.<\/p>\n \u201cTanguy and I are very excited…I\u2019m just very grateful,\u201d Natalie, 44, told Harper\u2019s Bazaar<\/a> in an interview published on April 17. \u201cI know it\u2019s such a privilege and a miracle.\u201d<\/p>\n As it happens, Natalie\u2019s father is a fertility doctor, so she\u2019s deeply aware of how difficult it can be to get pregnant, particularly as you get older. Discussing this with the outlet, she said, \u201cI grew up hearing about how hard it is to get pregnant. I have so many people I love who\u2019ve had such a hard time with it that I want to be respectful around that as well. It\u2019s such a beautiful, joyous thing, and it\u2019s also not an easy thing.\u201d<\/p>\n For context, this is Natalie\u2019s third child. She already shares two children, aged 14 and 9, with her ex-husband, Benjamin Millepied. She and Benjamin quietly separated<\/a> after 11 years of marriage in 2023. Their divorce<\/a> was finalized last March.<\/p>\n Like Benjamin, Natalie\u2019s new partner, Tanguy (also known as Tepr), is French. In the Harper\u2019s Bazaar interview, the actor talked about living in Paris, where she and her kids have been based on and off for many years now. \u201cThere\u2019s been beautiful spring weather,\u201d she said, \u201cso it\u2019s been pretty amazing to just walk in the incredible parks here and go see art.\u201d<\/p>\n Now, following the surprise news of her pregnancy, we have some updates on Natalie\u2019s \u201cnormal Parisian life\u201d \u2014 and why she decided to stay there, even after her split from Benjamin three years ago.<\/p>\n \u201cHer French is good and confident and shows how comfortable she has become here,\u201d a source told People<\/a> this week, following the confirmation of Natalie\u2019s pregnancy.<\/p>\n \u201c[She] decided to stay here for her children’s education and built herself a new life around them and her businesses since her divorce from Benjamin,\u201d the insider continued. \u201cAnd the result is that she’s fallen in love with Paris.\u201d<\/p>\n Another bonus of being pregnant in Paris? There\u2019s an extra week to enjoy. \u201cIn France, they consider full-term to be 41 weeks rather than 40,\u201d Natalie previously told Harper Bazaar, \u201cso I guess I get an extra week to be pregnant this time around.\u201d<\/p>\n
