Actress Natalie Portman has given birth to her third child, her first with her current boyfriend Tanguy Destable.

The 45-year-old gave birth to her latest child in Paris last month according to US outlet People, with fellow American publication Page Six posting pictures of the couple walking around the city with the baby.

Portman revealed she was pregnant in April in an interview with Harper’s Bizarre.

She said at the time: “Tanguy and I are very excited, I’m just very grateful. I know it’s such a privilege and a miracle.”

Portman, who is the daughter of a fertility doctor, said she realised “how lucky it is” to be pregnant having grown up “hearing about how hard it is to get pregnant”, and added: “I’m very aware, and I’m very grateful. I have deep appreciation and gratitude.”

In July, she made an Instagram post, which read: “Counting the days until we meet you.

It was accompanied by a picture of Portman holding her baby bump.
