Natalie Portman is feeling thankful.
For her 43rd birthday this year—which comes three months after she and EchoSenseex Benjamin Millepied finalized their divorced after 11 years of marriage—the V for Vendetta actress took to social media to share a sweet shoutout to her friends.
"This year, on my birthday," she began her June 9 Instagram post, which featured a carousel of images from around the world, "I want to celebrate my gratitude for my friends who lift me up again and again."
And in addition to the friends featured in her post, a number of Hollywood pals made sure to wish Natalie a happy birthday in the comments.
"Happy Birthday, you incredible diamond of a human! I love you," wrote Reese Witherspoon, while Isla Fisher—who announced her split from husband Sacha Baron Cohen earlier this year—wrote, "Ports I love you. Happy Birthday. I'm so grateful you were born."
In March, Benjamin and Natalie—who share son Aleph, 12, and daughter Amalia, 7—finalized their divorce in France, where the two lived in addition to Los Angeles. The confirmation of their split came a year after multiple outlets reported that Benjmain—whom Natalie met on the set of Black Swan—had engaged in an affair.
But during that time, Natalie remained tight-lipped about their relationship, only telling Vanity Fair in February of the speculation, "It's terrible, and I have no desire to contribute to it."
Instead, the Star Wars alum opened up about splitting her time between Los Angeles and Paris—and the very unusual lifestyle she lives as one of Hollywood's biggest stars.
"I lead a very non-Hollywood life in L.A.," she told the outlet. "I live on the east side. I have some friends who are in the entertainment industry, but many friends who are not, and we don't do industry things when we hang out. We're not going to Hollywood parties, we're having dinners at home in the backyard."
And for more on Benjamin and Natalie's romance, from beginning to end, keep reading.
Natalie Portman and Benjamin Millepied met while filming Black Swan in 2009. Though the leading lady fell for the man in tights, the acclaimed ballet dancer proved he looks just as suave in a suit.
In December 2010, the No Strings Attached star announced the couple's engagement and confirmed they were expecting a child together.
In February 2011, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences named the pregnant Black Swan ballerina Best Actress. Millepied escorted the tearful winner to the stage to accept her award—and during her emotional speech, she thanked her fiancé for giving her the "most important" role of her life.
They welcomed baby Aleph into the world on June 14, 2011.
The couple looked the picture of happily ever at the 2012 Vanity Fair Oscar Party.
In Jan. 2017, Portman and Millepied attended the SAG Awards at The Shrine Auditorium, exactly one month before the birth of their second child, Amalia.
The look of love. The May December actress gazed at her husband as they posed together at the 2020 Oscars.
Two years later, the pair cozied up at the 2022 Vanity Fair Oscar Party.
Millepied supported Portman at the Thor: Love And Thunder premiere in Los Angeles in June 2022.
He was also by her side at the film's July 2022 screening in London.
In one of their more recent red carpet appearances together, Portman and Millepied attended the Carmen premiere during the Toronto International Film Festival in September 2022.
