Natalie Portman is expecting a baby at the age of 44 with her partner, the French musician Tanguy Destable. The actress revealed the news to Harper's Bazaar, sharing that she feels "lucky" and "grateful" to become a mother of three.

The star was photographed taking a stroll through Paris where her blossoming bump was captured. The mother-of-two wore a black trench coat that covered her growing bump as it was buttoned and a pair of nylon leggings.  The casual ensemble was styled with white snakes, black sunglasses, and a tote bag. 

Natalie opened up to the publication about what she called her "miracle" pregnancy. "Tanguy and I are very excited," she shared. "I’m just very grateful. I know it’s such a privilege and a miracle."

"I grew up hearing about how hard it is to get pregnant. 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. And so I know how lucky it is. I’m very aware, and I’m very grateful. I have deep appreciation and gratitude," she added.

The couple were first linked in March 2025 after they were spotted enjoying a romantic stroll through Paris. The pair were photographed embracing while heading to the Écoles Cinéma Club.

Natalie was previously married to Benjamin Millepied. The Hollywood actress and choreographer celebrated their nuptials in 2012 and share two children –  their son Aleph, and their daughter Amalia. It was reported that the choreographer's extramarital affair in 2023 was the reason for the separation and divorce in 2024.

She continued: "There is a gratitude that when you’re young, you don’t necessarily grasp. And there’s a calm and knowing myself: who I want to spend time with, what kind of energy I want around me that makes the experience so beautiful every day. And knowing it’s probably the last time, I cherish every moment."

Natalie revealed that she is physically feeling great in her third pregnancy. "I have more energy than I thought I might," she admitted. She has been enjoying swimming and doing gyrotonics while spending time with her two children.

Tanguy is from Morlaix in northwestern France. He is an electronic music producer and released his first album in 2015. The music producer was previously in a 10-year relationship with his ex-wife, the actress Louise Bourgoin.
