Natalie Portman and her husband Benjamin Millepied are making headlines after the latter was accused of cheating.

According to People magazine, Benjamin had a short-lived affair with a 25-year-old French woman. The claims were made in a French publication called Voici.

"It's over... He knows he made an enormous mistake," the source told People. 

The couple, who celebrated their 10-year wedding anniversary in August 2022, are said to be fighting to save their marriage. 

“They have not split and are trying to work things out. Ben is doing everything he can to get Natalie to forgive him. He loves her and their family," another source told Page Six

Natalie reportedly found out about the alleged affair in March this year. A few days before Voici published the claims, the 'Thor: Love and Thunder' actress was pictured on a dinner date with Benjamin in Paris.
