Natalie Portman's husband had an affair with a woman in her 20s "trying to solve it"

Hollywood actress Natalie Portman's marriage was in jeopardy after an affair with her husband, ballerino Benjamin Milepeed.

Page Six said on the 2nd (local time), “The two, who were married in 2012, separated last year, but are working to overcome their relationship. However, as Milefeed's affair became known recently, their marriage is shaking."

Former New York City Ballet principal dancer Milefied's affair is environmental activist Camille Etienne, 20 years his junior. Étienne has made a number of short films about the environment and has written a book titled 'For an Ecological Rebellion'.

A source told Page Six: "They haven't broken up and are trying to work things out. Ben is doing his best to get Natalie to forgive him. He loves her and their family.” "Portman's biggest concern right now is protecting children," he added.

French magazine Boyce recently reported that "in early March, Portman discovered that her husband was having an affair with a younger woman."

Portman and Milefeed met on the set of the movie 'Black Swan,' and got engaged in 2010 and married in 2012. The two have one son and one daughter.
