Natalie Portman isn't shying away from the spotlight amid the shocking reports that her husband of ten years, Benjamin Millepied, had an affair.
On Friday, June 2, reports circulated that the couple were in the process of repairing their relationship after the 45-year-old ballet dancer allegedly had an affair with a younger French woman, reportedly a 25-year-old climate activist.
Though neither the Thor actress nor her husband have addressed the reports, Natalie isn't in seclusion and was spotted out still wearing her engagement ring and wedding band while in Paris.

Her husband did not appear to be in attendance at any of the Cannes events, and their last major public appearance was at the red carpet for the premiere of his film Carmen during the 2022 Toronto International Film Festival in September.

For the French sportsmatch, Natalie donned an oversized gray blazer over a crisp, white button down paired with classic blue jeans. She topped the look off with bold red lipstick, oversized cat-eye sunglasses, and she styled her brown hair in a sleek blow-out with a middle part.

They welcomed their 11-year-old son Aleph in 2011 – he is named after the first letter in the Hebrew alphabet – and later on they welcomed daughter Amalia in 2016, the same year they moved from Paris to Los Angeles.
