AceShowbiz - Natalie Portman couldn't hide her true feelings amid the cheating scandal involving her husband. The "Black Swan" actress and Benjamin Millepied looked tense during an outing with their kids in Paris.
On Saturday, June 10, which happened to be the choreographer's 46th birthday, the couple took their children to a Parisian park. The 42-year-old beauty, however, looked upset and dispirited during the outing.
In photos obtained by Page Six, she appeared to be wiping away tears under her cat-eye sunglasses during a conversation with her husband. At another point, the mother of two put her head down on the top of a bench as she and Benjamin were sitting on the bench together. He did little to nothing to console her.
As seen during her previous sighting at the 2023 French Open, Natalie still had her wedding ring on despite her husband's alleged infidelity. The park outing marked the first time the couple was seen together since news broke that he allegedly cheated on her with 25-year-old Camille Etienne.
"It was short-lived and it is over," a source told PEOPLE of the alleged affair. "He knows he made an enormous mistake and he is doing all he can to get Natalie to forgive him and keep their family together," the source added. "Natalie is incredibly private and has no intention of playing this out in the media. Her biggest priority is protecting her children and their privacy."
Natalie reportedly felt "humiliated" by cheating allegations against her husband. Though she's hurt, the actress chose to remain committed to her marriage. "Natalie believes Benjamin’s affair was a brief and stupid liaison that means nothing to him," a source told Us Weekly, adding that she is "willing to see if she's capable of rebuilding her trust" in her husband to ensure that their kids don't "grow up in a broken home."
A second insider, however, said that Natalie "doesn't know" whether she and Benjamin will repair their relationship post-scandal. "Right now, they are talking and working on it together for the sake of their children," the source dished, noting that the French dancer "regrets" his actions.
