In a recent interview with The Independent, Benjamin revealed that he and Natalie discussed having another baby as quickly as possible after their son was born. However, they decided to postpone their plans of further expanding their family and wait a while before welcoming another child into the world.

“We thought about going back-to-back but then decided to wait“, Millepied said. Even though the couple changed their mind about going back-to-back, sources say that Natalie is very wrapped up with being a mommy.

“She is super choosy about her projects and taking more time off from acting“, a source revealed.”She has this glow about her these days. There’s been a change in her since the little man arrived. She and Benjamin are so content“, the source added.

Another source confirmed that Natalie Portman is in no rush of having another baby and that she is happy with just the one child for now. “She still complains about how crazy she was during pregnancy. She couldn’t wait to get back to her normal routine and diet, which includes two glasses of wine at the end of the day“, informed the source.

And speaking of wine, Benkamin Millepied also said that he and his wife are frequently hosting music nights together. They like to invite friends over and watch different acts perform at their place. This is how Millepied came to make a video for IO Echo’s single, Eye Father.

Benjamin explained: “We host music nights at our house sometimes, so we had them come and play. I loved their music and was looking for an interesting band to work with, so that’s what happened“.

Meanwhile, Natalie Portman is in Austin, Texas, filming for Terrence Malick’s new project, Knight of Cups. The movie was shot back to back with a yet untitled project also directed by Malick and starring Natalie Portman.

She has clearly been busy during these last few months, so she got very excited when husband Ben and 16-month-old son Aleph paid her a visit in Austin. The cute little man looked delighted as his famous mother fed him spoonfuls of ice cream.

The now-blonde actress looked very happy, too, holding her son in her arms and being accompanied by her husband. The trio cooled off with a sweet Texan treat before mommy had to go back to work.

Natalie Portman and Benjamin Millepied, a French dancer and choreographer, got married. The wedding ceremony took place on the scenic central California coast of Big Sur.

They met on the set of Black Swan in 2009. Benjamin was working as a choreographer on the film and the two started to date during shooting movie. In 2010, they announced they were engaged and expecting their first child.

The couple wanted an intimate atmosphere, so at their wedding they were surrounded by friends, relatives and family. Natalie and Benjamin exchanged vows after dark in a Jewish ceremony at a wonderful private home, nearby the ocean.

It’s not surprising that the wedding ceremony was discrete as Natalie Portman is very discrete with her personal life: “Nothing is more important than my personal life. It’s something which comes first, always makes sense, and compared to the happiness of a successful family life, everything else is practically superficial.”

For her wedding, the actress chose a traditional white gown from Rodarte, the fashion house that designed her dress for 2010 Oscars and also a crown of white wildflowers. The groom wore a midnight blue tux. The menu was strictly vegan and the ceremony featured only wildflowers instead of flowers flown in.

The ceremony lasted 45 minutes and it’s said to be coordinated by Stefanie Cove and Yifat Oren. It took place under a rustic and beautiful Jewish chuppah made of twigs. The two were wrapped in a tallits, which is a Jewish prayer shawl and at the end of the wedding ceremony, Benjamin smashed a glass to shouts of “Mazel Tov”.

Additionally, instead of choosing the traditional wedding cake, the two opted for French macarons. At the wedding were approximately 100 guests and party favours consisted of packages with wildflower seeds that their guests took home. The packages were inscribed with “Merci”.

Natalie Portman may plan now to become a French citizen: “I now have the possibility of taking on French nationality. It would accomplish the Francophile dreams of my father and myself. I lived in Paris when I was 12 and my father gave me the name Natalie as an homage to Gilbert Becaud’s song. Everything in my life has drawn me towards a French family.” As she is married to a French, it seems that her dream will come true and she will be very happy.

Does anyone hear wedding bells? I know Natalie Portman does, since she and her fiancee, Benjamin Millepied, are to be married in California in August, said some U.S. media sources. The couple became engaged in 2010. In February that same year, the American press assumed that the two had secretly married, since they were spotted wearing wedding rings at the Academy Awards ceremony in Los Angeles.

The rumors proved to be false, since a source told U.S. tabloid In Touch Weekly that Portman and Millepied intend to marry on August 5, during a private ceremony that only relatives and close friends of both families will get to attend. According to the source, the lucky couple will not even send out invitations and Natalie might even not wear a wedding dress. 

Natalia and Ben will get married in the Big Sur region of California, which is one of Natalie’s favorite places. She goes there to relax and escape the L.A. pressure every time she gets the chance to.
