Natalie Portman is “awed” to be welcoming a third child with her partner, the French music producer Tanguy Destable.

The actor revealed the news exclusively to Harper’s Bazaar. “Tanguy and I are very excited,” she says. “I’m just very grateful. I know it’s such a privilege and a miracle.”

Portman, who is 44, is the child of a fertility doctor and has a keen awareness of the challenges and heartbreak that can accompany a fertility journey. “I grew up hearing about how hard it is to get pregnant,” she says. “I have so many people I love who’ve had such a hard time with it that I want to be respectful around that as well. It’s such a beautiful, joyous thing, and it’s also not an easy thing.” She adds, “And so I know how lucky it is. I’m very aware, and I’m very grateful. I have deep appreciation and gratitude.”More From Harper's BAZAAR
