The actors were first linked in 2002 but made headlines again in 2006 when they were spotted on a date in New York City. Years later, they both starred in the 2009 psychological drama Brothers.

The Star Wars actress was spotted spending time with the Mexico native on several occasions from 2004 to 2007.

The Jackie star was spotted snuggling with the U.K. native at the U.S. Open in New York City in September 2007.

Portman dated the Texas native in 2008, starring in the music video for his song “Carmensita.” The pair were frequently spotted strolling in New York City together during their relationship.

Portman wed Millepied in 2012 after meeting him on the set of Black Swan in 2009. The couple welcomed son Aleph and daughter Amalia in 2011 and 2017, respectively.

While accepting her Oscar for Best Actress for the Darren Aronofsky film in February 2011, Portman, who was pregnant with Aleph at the time, thanked her then-fiancé.

“To my beautiful love, Benjamin Millepied, who choreographed the film and has now given me my most important role of my life,” she said, gesturing to her stomach.

Us confirmed in August 2023 that the couple had separated after 11 years of marriage as rumors swirled that Millepied had an affair. “[Natalie] has no doubt he regrets what he did,” a source exclusively told Us. “It was a really humiliating scenario for Natalie.”

A second source revealed in September 2023 that the duo were “spending time together coparenting” amid their split. “Ben is still wanting a reconciliation, but Natalie is still skeptical,” the insider added. “While she hasn’t ruled it out, it’s not something she wants at the moment.”

The exes finalized their divorce in March 2024. “They’re being very civil toward each other for the kids,” a third insider shared with Us at the time. “Benjamin would’ve love[d] to have Natalie back, but she’s not interested.”

Portman sparked a romance with the French musician nearly two years after she and Millepied called it quits. “Natalie and Tanguy have been seeing each other for a few months,” a source exclusively told Us in March 2025. “[It hasn’t been] too long, but they are having a great time together.”

The source noted that the pair met through a “few mutual friends,” while a second insider added, “Natalie is very happy with Tanguy.”
