PARIS, FRANCE: Natalie Portman is a mother again. The Marvel actress has welcomed her first child with her French partner, Tanguy Destable. The Oscar-winning actress previously described becoming a mother for the third time as nothing but “full of gratitude.”

According to People, nearly five months after revealing her pregnancy, the ‘Black Swan’ actress gave birth to her third baby in Paris last month. However, she has yet to share any update about the newborn, whether through a picture, post, or any other announcement on her Instagram or X accounts.

In a previous conversation with Harper’s Bazaar, the 45-year-old actress shared, “Tanguy and I are very excited.” She also said, “I’m just very grateful. I know it’s such a privilege and a miracle.”

As the daughter of a fertility doctor, Portman noted during the interview that she “grew up hearing about how hard it is to get pregnant.” She also shared that she has “so many people I love who’ve had such a hard time with it,” adding that she wants to be respectful of their experiences as well.

The ‘Star Wars’ alum also said that while fertility journeys are “such a beautiful, joyous thing,” they’re also “not an easy thing.” Portman added, “I have deep appreciation and gratitude.”

Natalie Portman talks about motherhood and her children

Being a mother is all about balance, and Portman knows it well. As one of the most photographed actresses in the world, she has never forgotten her responsibilities as a mother.

In previous interviews, Portman has shared how much her children influence her life and decisions. Despite welcoming a new baby with her partner, Tanguy Destable, her two children from her previous marriage to Millepied continue to play a huge role in shaping her choices.

“I feel like it's the phase of my career where I'm really trying to just impress my kids,” she once said while discussing her decision to take on roles such as Mighty Thor in ‘Thor: Love and Thunder.’

Portman has also shared that her children are not just observers of her life but people she feels comfortable talking to. “My kids are always a source of excitement, because you just see them develop into the individuals they are,” she shared in another conversation.
