The American actress has kept her dating history private due to her commitment to her profession and concern for her privacy. But, Portman is now married to her childhood sweetheart, former co-star Benjamin Millepied, with whom she has two children. But how did she meet and fall in love with her current husband? Let’s know all details about their relationship timeline.

Natalie Portman & Benjamin Millepied Married Life

Natalie Portman married Benjamin Millepied, a former Black Swan dancer and choreographer whom she met on set and began dating in 2009. According to US Weekly, Natalie Portman recently opened up about starring in the twisted ballet drama and her present marriage at the Vulture Festival in Hollywood, California.

The beautiful downplayed her Academy Award and emphasized her significant other when asked about the excitement of meeting her husband and winning an Oscar for Black Swan. “Yeah. More so, the husband, “She confessed. Stars Esme Creed-Miles and Oliver Hudson‘s mother Goldie also own Academy awards.

The couple got engaged in December 2010 and married on August 4, 2012, in a private residence in Big Sur, California. Portman looked stunning in a custom-made Rodarte tea-length A-line gown with an illusion neckline and long sheer sleeves for the midnight Jewish ceremony, which included a vegan banquet to fit her lifestyle.

Portman’s black feather tutu for her Black Swan part was also designed by Laura and Kate Mulleavy, the sibling duo of Rodarte, so she has a charming fashion link from the film. She accessorized her wedding day with a flower crown and a short veil, keeping the ensemble feather-free.

Natalie Portman & Benjamin Millepied’s Past Relationships

Natalie Portman was said to have dated her Star Wars co-star Hayden Christensen in 2000 when the first Star Wars prequel was released. Although they were a central relationship in the prequel franchise, there was no indication that they were dating at the time. Hayden Christensen and his ex-wife Rachel Bilson, with whom he has a child, are divorced.

In his 2019 book, musician Moby revealed that he dated Natalie for a short time in 2001. Natalie insisted she did not date the artist in an interview with Harper’s Bazaar the following year. Natalie alleged that in his book, he claimed she was 20 years old when she was just 18. (At the time, the musician was 36 years old.) She also asserts that his book was not fact-checked because she never received a call to confirm that information.

Natalie Portman & Benjamin Millepied’s Children

Natalie Portman and her ballet-dancing husband have two children together right now. Aleph Portman-Millepied, the couple’s 11-year-old son, was born in 2011, and Amalia Millepied, their 5-year-old daughter, was born in 2017. Amalia Portman was born just days before the Academy Awards, where Portman was nominated for Best Actress for her portrayal in Jackie. It’s no wonder that Portman’s maternity style was notoriously to-die-for if her wedding gown was any indication of her killer style.

The 1.6 m tall Oscar winner devoted her acceptance speech for Black Swan to her “wonderful love, Benjamin, who has now given me the most significant role in my life” (wearing yet another Rodarte design). This accomplishment occurred only a few months after the birth of their son. You won’t find a love story cuter than theirs, from on-set dancing partners to real-life companions.
