Natalie Portman is expecting her third child at age 44.
The actor told Harper’s Bazaar she is “very grateful” to be welcoming a child with partner Tanguy Destable, 45, a French electronic music producer known by his stage name, Tepr.
“Tanguy and I are very excited,” she told the outlet. “I’m just very grateful. I know it’s such a privilege and a miracle.”
The actor shares two older children, son Aleph, 14, and daughter Amalia, 9, with ex-husband Benjamin Millepied. Portman and Millepied divorced in 2024.
A publicist for Portman, Keleigh Morgan, confirmed news of the pregnancy but did not give further details.
Portman has spoken about how she grew up the child of a fertility doctor.
“I grew up hearing about how hard it is to get pregnant,” she told Harper’s Bazaar. “I have so many people I love who’ve had such a hard time with it that I want to be respectful around that as well. It’s such a beautiful, joyous thing, and it’s also not an easy thing.”
She also said she is feeling good physically, with “more energy than I thought I might.”
Portman’s upcoming projects include Cathy Yan’s “The Gallerist,” about an unusual art world caper, and Lena Dunham’s “Good Sex” on Netflix.
