Celebrities Who Got Pregnant After 40
Natalie Portman Is Pregnant With Baby No. 3, Her First With Tanguy Destable
Life itself is a miracle, let alone the chance to grow a new one inside your own body.
And, according to even the most modern medical expertise, the chances of getting pregnant—and then carrying a baby to term—diminishes as women get older. As in, reach their mid-to-late 30s.
But waiting until then—or later—to have (or have more) children has become increasingly common in society, just look at Natalie Portman. On April 17, the 44-year-old confirmed that she and her boyfriend Tanguy Destable are expecting their first child together.
“Tanguy and I are very excited,” she told Harper’s Bazaar in an interview shared April 17. “I’m just very grateful. I know it’s such a privilege and a miracle.”
After all, the Black Swan actress—who also shares kids Aleph, 14, and Amalia, 9, with ex-husband Benjamin Millepied—is the daughter of a fertility doctor, meaning she knows not every family is as lucky.
