Natalie Portman weds fiancé Benjamin

Natalie Portman has married beau Benjamin Millepied.

Thor star Natalie Portman has tied the knot to her beau Benjamin Millepied. The pair, who first met on the set of the ballet film Black Swan, married in a starlit Jewish ceremony at a private home in California.

The low-key ceremony was attended by 60 friends and family in the coastal location of Big Sur – famous for its connections to beatnik writers, including Jack Kerouac and Hunter S Thompson.

“It’s one of Natalie’s favourite places – whenever she needs a break from Los Angeles she goes there,” says a friend. The Oscar-winning actress (31) and French-born dancer-choreographer (35) are parents to one-year-old son Aleph.
