Natalie Portman Addresses Speculations Surrounding Husband’s Alleged Infidelity

Natalie Portman's relationship with Benjamin Millepied has recently been under scrutiny due to rumors circulating about his fidelity.

Last year, allegations emerged suggesting that the choreographer had engaged in a romantic involvement with Camille Etienne, a climate activist.

The absence of their wedding bands in public appearances fueled speculations regarding potential marital issues.

Portman has decided to confront these rumors head-on.

In an interview with Vanity Fair, the acclaimed Black Swan star discussed the swirling gossip about cracks in her marriage and how she initially reacted to the accusations.

Expressing her dismay, Portman stated, “It's awful.

I have no interest in perpetuating it.”

While neither confirming nor denying the alleged infidelity, Portman has made it clear that she does not engage in spreading or entertaining rumors.

In June, French magazine Voici published a report claiming that Millepied, aged 46, and Etienne, aged 25, were engaged in a romantic affair following sightings of them leaving his workplace together.

Sources close to the couple revealed to People that the affair was brief, with Millepied making efforts to seek forgiveness from Natalie and preserve their family unit.

Recent public appearances by Portman without her wedding ring, such as at the Golden Globes, have stirred further speculation about the status of their relationship.

Despite this, both Portman and Millepied have intermittently sported their rings since the rumors surfaced.

Natalie Portman and Benjamin Millepied's love story began on the set of Black Swan in 2009.

Their whirlwind romance led to an engagement within a year, followed by the announcement of their first child on the way.

The couple exchanged vows in Big Sur, California, on August 4, 2012, and now share two children, Aleph, aged 12, and Amalia, aged 6.

Discussing her lifestyle preferences, the Academy Award-winning actress opened up to Vanity Fair about her affection for both Paris and Los Angeles.

Portman highlighted her grounded existence in LA, emphasizing her choice to reside on the east side and maintain a life removed from typical Hollywood extravagance.

Detailing her experiences, Portman shared, “Living there altered my perspective on LA significantly.

Rather than engaging solely in industry-related activities, I embraced the city's diverse offerings, including its natural beauty, cultural scene, culinary delights, and most importantly, its people.”

Renowned in Hollywood circles, Portman clinched the Best Actress Oscar in 2011 for her exceptional portrayal in Black Swan.
