A wave of divorces recently flooded the Israeli swamp, but there is one Israeli woman who already experienced this firsthand last year.
At the beginning of 2023, rumors spread that Natalie Portman 's husband, French dancer Benjamin Millepied, had cheated on her. The two kept quiet about it, but earlier this year the world learned that the rumors were true and that the two divorced after 11 years of marriage and two children together.
Since then they have moved on - especially Millepied, who already has a new partner; And she's not the one with whom he cheated on Portman.
Last month, photos were published of him kissing an unknown woman on the streets of Paris, and now Portman's confidants are revealing how she feels about her ex's new relationship. "She's not surprised that Benjamin has moved on, given the circumstances of how their marriage ended. She figured he would move on quickly," one insider told US Weekly.
While some would make a voodoo doll of the unfaithful ex, Portman is probably less vindictive - at least on the outside. "She wants him to be happy," said the insider. Another relative of Portman said that "Benjamin's love life does not interest her and she does not care who he dates. She moved on a long time ago. She is very happy in her life and focuses on her family and friends."
At the same time, another insider clarified: "It took her a while to recover after the separation, but she got better after the divorce became final. She regained her self-confidence, and the light and joy returned to her eyes."
Portman and Millepied became a couple after they met on the set of the movie "Black Swan" in 2009. In 2011, their oldest son Alef was born, and a year later in August 2012 they got married in a Jewish ceremony in California. In January 2014, it reports surfaced that Millepied had begun a conversion process, and three years later the two expanded their family and with the birth of their daughter, Amalia.
At the beginning of last year, rumors spread that, shortly after the couple moved to live in Paris, Portman discovered that Millepied had cheated on her with a young French star named Camille Etienne. After failed reconciliation attempts, the two officially divorced earlier this year.
Portman referred to the divorce in an amusing way when she was a guest on Jimmy Fallon's show in July and told him that she ran into Rihanna , who called her "one of the hottest bitches ever in Hollywood." Portman said on the show: "I think every woman going through a divorce needs Rihanna to tell her she's a bad bitch. That's exactly what I needed.
