Natalie Portman soaked up the sun on a beach in St. Barth this week. The 43-year-old mother-of-two showed off her slim figure in a plunging purple one-piece swimsuit. Her bob haircut was pulled into a half-back style as the actress waded knee-deep into the clear blue water. She was makeup-free during the holiday, which marks her first since finalizing her divorce from ex-husband Benjamin Millepied earlier this year. Missing from the scene were the former couple’s two children, son Aleph, 13, and daughter Amalia, seven. Millepied has already moved on from the relationship, and it was revealed that Portman is ‘not surprised.’
The two were married for 11 years before Natalie filed for divorce in July 2023. Their divorce was finalized earlier this year. Their split followed reports that Benjamin had allegedly cheated on his wife with a woman 21 years his junior. He was spotted kissing a woman on October 15 in Paris, according to Us Weekly, with the outlet’s source revealing Natalie’s feelings about his swift return to the dating scene.
The actress reportedly ‘hopes Benjamin is happy’ and it was noted that his ‘dating life doesn’t really have any bearing on Natalie.’ ‘She’s super happy in her life right now and has been prioritizing family and friends,’ the source said.
Portman appeared on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon in July, where she gushed that meeting Rihanna was a ‘formative moment’ in her life. ‘I think everyone going through a divorce should get Rihanna to say to her that she’s a bad b. It was exactly what I needed,’ she said at the time. The run-in with Rihanna came in January, during Paris Fashion Week. The Bajan pop star told Natalie that she was ‘one of the hottest bes in Hollywood.’
The stars crossed paths while en route to the Haute Couture Dior show, with Natalie declaring to Rihanna: ‘I love you.’ Rihanna then returned the compliment, telling the Black Swan actress: ‘I am a proper fan.’

Natalie Portman’s sunny getaway in St. Barth marks her first holiday since finalizing her divorce from Benjamin Millepied.
