Natalie Portman engaged and expecting
[HMG Celebrity News] – In news that will delight many fans but surprise very few it’s been revealed that Natalie Portman and her ‘Black Swan’ dance coach, Benjamin Millepied are now engaged – and Natalie’s expecting a child.
A principal dancer for the New York ballet company, 33-year old Ben was hired by ‘Swan’s director, Darren Aronofsky to choreograph the challenging dance scenes.
But the attention and focus he lavished on Natalie got many tongues wagging about a possible bond. And it seems they were right.
“I really, really got into it!” he recently told reporters about his role in the film. “I was blown away — especially by Natalie, who was amazing to watch.”
When he began work on ‘Swan’ Ben was already involved with fellow dancer Isabella Boylston. And some acerbic onlookers suggested he dumped her to get cozy with Natalie, and perhaps ‘social-climb.’
“Maybe they have a great relationship. But knowing Benjamin, I don’t think that’s how it is,” one bitter bystander mused.
However their connection occurred this will be the first child for the 29-year old actress, and is due sometime in the Spring of next year.
Meanwhile, Natalie’s next outing on screen will be opposite Ashton Kutcher in the rom-com, ‘No Strings Attached.’ It’s the story of two people who try to keep their bond purely physical, but realize they want something more.
Directed by the singular mind behind Ghostbusters and Animal House – Ivan Reitman – it debuts on January 21.
