Actor-producer Natalie Portman took to her Instagram handle to call out a tabloid for speculating her pregnancy. The headline of the article read: "Natalie Portman steps out seemingly with a baby bump in Sydney" and this definitely didn't go down well with the Black Swan actor.

Slamming the tabloid, Natalie wrote, "Hey. So I’m totally not pregnant…" and in the following story added, "…But apparently it’s still OK in 2021  for anyone to speculate and comment on a woman’s body shape whenever they want? Do better." [sic]

Portman and husband Benjamin Millepied are proud parents of two children, son Aleph (8-year-old) and daughter Amalia (almost-four-year-old).

On the work front, Natalie will be seen opposite Chris Hemsworth in Thor: Love and Thunder.
