Public Reveal of the Bump
On June 18, 2025, Natalie Portman posted an Instagram carousel from her birthday week in Italy and Paris. One image shows her in a New York Knicks hoodie before the Eiffel Tower, her baby bump clearly visible. The caption read, “The best birthday week ever–thanks for all the birthday wishes and to Italy for being the greatest. And if you look closely, in pic 12 you can see Venus and Jupiter almost touching.” The post was her first visual pregnancy update since the April announcement.
Background & Current Family Situation
Portman married choreographer Benjamin Millepied in 2012; the couple moved to Paris in 2014 when Millepied became director of the Paris Opera Ballet. Their marriage ended with a divorce finalized in 2024. They share two children: son Aleph (now reported as 14 or 15) and daughter Amalia (9). After the divorce, Portman remained in Paris, citing her children’s schooling and personal projects. In March 2025 she was first linked to French musician Tanguy Destable (stage name Tepr), who has two sons—Étienne (born 2016) and Vadim (born 2020)—from a previous relationship with actress Louise Bourgoin.

Portman turned 45 on June 9, 2025; her pregnancy is in its final weeks as of June 2025. Aleph is reported as 14 or 15, Amalia is 9. Destable’s sons are Étienne (born 2016) and Vadim (born 2020).
