A Hollywood luminary with Israeli heritage made a striking statement about her ex-husband’s loss due to his extramarital affair. Natalie exuded sensuality in a recent photoshoot, just a month after finalizing her divorce from French choreographer Benjamin Milpierre, aged 46.

In the shoot, Portman donned lingerie and a sheer black lace Dior bodysuit, exuding confidence with no trace of heartbreak. Accentuating her chiseled figure, the mother-of-two styled her brown locks in luxurious waves and enhanced her radiant complexion with bold blood-red lipstick. With an inviting glance and a playful air kiss, she flaunted a sizable ring on her right hand.

This captivating photo graced the cover of an Italian glossy. In an interview with L’Officiel, Portman emphasized the importance of looking ahead rather than dwelling on the past. When asked if she often reflects on her past, the Oscar winner remarked, “I tend to focus on the future, not dwelling on what’s behind, though certain themes, like the roles we assume with others versus our true selves, have recurred for me, especially the roles women are expected to play in different spheres of their lives.” The Black Swan star confessed her attraction to projects centered on women’s pursuit of independence and self-discovery. “The theme of women’s liberation and the ability to share their own narratives often emerges in my work, not deliberately, but in retrospect, I realize it’s a recurring theme I’m drawn to,” she revealed.

Portman finalized her divorce in France in March, concluding a 12-year union. The former couple shares two children, 12-year-old Aleph and 7-year-old Amalia. They resided in Benjamin’s homeland for several years. Portman initiated divorce proceedings last July, following reports of Benjamin’s involvement with a 25-year-old environmental activist named Camille Etienne, as reported in the French media.

Milpierre confessed to the affair, acknowledging his grave error, and expressed fervent efforts to seek Portman’s forgiveness and salvage their family, according to the Daily Mail. Initially, Portman contemplated forgiving her unfaithful spouse but ultimately realized she couldn’t trust him or bear the weight of betrayal. A close friend of Natalie revealed that the dissolution of her marriage was profoundly challenging, but with the support of friends, she weathered the storm.
