Natalie Portman marked her 45th birthday with a sunny Instagram post celebrating travels in Italy and Paris. The actress, who turned 45 on June 9, described the week as her “best birthday week ever.” Her update arrives amid her pregnancy announcement from April.
Portman posted the photos on June 18, showing a birthday cake, Italian scenes, the Eiffel Tower and a sky view of Venus and Jupiter nearly touching. She wrote: “The best birthday week ever – thanks for all the birthday wishes and to Italy for being the greatest.”
The Oscar winner is expecting her third child, her first with partner Tanguy Destable. She shares Aleph, 15, and Amalia, nine, with ex-husband Benjamin Millepied; their divorce was finalized in 2024. Portman has lived in Paris since 2014.
Sources cited by People described Destable, who performs as Tepr, as “very respected in the music scene” and “no drama.” Portman told Harper’s Bazaar in April she and Destable were “very excited” about the pregnancy.
She is also set to appear in Good Sex, directed by Lena Dunham, and Photograph 51.
