Natalie filed for divorce in July, following reports of an extramarital affair by Millepied in May 2023.

Despite a challenging year, Portman emerged stronger, finding joy in family, friends, and work.

Millepied made efforts to reconcile, while Portman focused on protecting her children and privacy.
