Amid fervent reports that n and husband Benjamin Millepied are separating, the actress is keeping things more cryptic and casual as far as her social media is concerned.
The 42-year-old took a break from her breathtaking glimpses of her Australian trip, to attend the FIFA Women's World Cup final, to pay tribute to the most doting members of her family – her dogs.
In honor of International Dog Day on Saturday, the noted animal lover shared some professional shots of her three adorable family pooches, Timber, Penny, and her newest rescue, Sunday.
The three looked as picturesque as could be in the black and white photos, leading one fan to comment: "I love them. These pics are amazing." Natalie is also a mom to son Aleph, 12, and daughter Amalia, six, with Benjamin.
In an interview with Harper's Bazaar, the Oscar winner described her work producing and narrating a documentary on factory farming, titled Eating Animals, and how the horrifying findings led to her going from vegetarian to vegan.
"I was vegetarian before, and had eaten eggs and dairy and I thought, 'that doesn't really hurt animals, it's a natural bi-product of an animal' which I still believe if you're on a nice farm and have a few chickens," she explained.
"But the vast majority of animals are raised in such devastating way. It's devastating for the animals of course, but also for the environment. I was changed by it and it made me feel that it was urgent to, not just change the way I was, but also to spread the word."

"The incredible thing with the vision that Jonathan and Christopher put forward is that if everyone just adjusted their diets a little bit – it doesn't have to be taking on a whole different identity and be 100 percent of the time – but if people cut out meat once a day or once a week, it would make an incredible difference to the environment and to the welfare of animals."

"It's all under the same system," she said at a screening of Eating Animals. "It's not an accident that women are treated in a different way in our society, and our Earth is called Mother Earth and it's treated poorly.
