Overview
- On Wednesday, July 29, Portman posted a maternity photo on Instagram captioned “Counting the days until we meet you,” crediting photographer Shelby Duncan and drawing supportive comments from friends including Julianne Moore and Jennifer Garner.
- She first announced the pregnancy in April in an interview with Harper’s Bazaar, and her representative confirmed to Reuters that she is expecting her third child.
- This will be Portman’s third child and her first with partner Tanguy Destable, a French music producer who already has children from a prior relationship, creating a blended-family dynamic.
- Portman, 45, has described the pregnancy as “a privilege and a miracle,” cited her upbringing with a father who is a fertility doctor, and said she is cherishing the experience because it may be her last.
- Portman lives in Paris with her family, has emphasized guarding her older children’s privacy, and has signalled she plans to slow down professionally as she prepares for the baby while completing a small number of projects through her MountainA production company.
