On March 7, 2025, the relationship between Natalie Portman and music producer Tanguy D’Estable, who goes by the stage name Tepple, was reported by French media outlet Voici and later confirmed by People.
More than a year later, in April 2026, the actress shared the happy news. The couple is expecting their first child, their third child in total. (Portman has two children, Aleph and Amalia, with ex-husband Benjamin Millepied.)
“I’m so grateful,” she told Harper’s Bazaar. “I know it’s a great honor and a miracle.”
