Natalie Portman ditches wedding ring on her and husband Benjamin Millepied’s 11th anniversary

No strings attached?
Natalie Portman was recently spotted in Australia without her wedding ring on her and husband Benjamin Millepied’s 11th anniversary.
The movie star was photographed in Sydney Friday at the Angel City Equity Summit in support of the National Women’s Soccer League team Angel City FC, which she co-founded.
For the outing, Portman, 42, wore a plaid blazer over a white collared button-up, jeans and a pair of black loafers.
However, her 4-carat, Jamie Wolf-designed wedding ring was noticeably missing from her hand.
Page Six has reached out to Portman’s rep, but did not immediately hear back.
While the reason for the “Thor: Love and Thunder” star’s missing rock is unknown, the poignant choice comes two months after Page Six exclusively reported that Millepied was fighting to save his marriage after cheating allegations surfaced.
French magazine Voici previously shared photos of the French dancer, 46, and Camille Étienne, 25, going into his office separately on May 24 and exiting 10 minutes apart two hours later.
The publication alleged that Millepied had been spending time with the environmental activist and claimed that Portman learned about her husband’s alleged affair “in early March.”
A source close to the couple told Page Six in June that the pair “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,” the insider said, adding that the Oscar winner is “incredibly private” and “her biggest focus right now” is protecting their two kids: son Aleph, 12, and daughter Amalia, 6.

In the days after the alleged affair broke, Portman was spotted out around Paris — sans her beau — on several occasions.
On June 3, she was all smiles while watching a soccer match between Paris Saint-Germain and Clermont Foot 63 at the Parc des Princes stadium.
Four days later, she sat in the stands with friends as they watched the 2023 French Open. The “Where the Heart Is” star was still wearing her wedding ring at the time.
That weekend, the couple reconnected to have a family day at the park, but Portman was noticeably distressed.
In photos exclusively obtained by Page Six at the time, the mom of two and the ballet dancer were seen having an intense conversation while sitting on the bench together.
At one point, Portman appeared to be wiping away tears under her cat-eye sunglasses.
Millepied and the Oscar winner met in 2009 on the set of her ballet movie, “Black Swan,” which he choreographed.
