Story summary

Natalie Portman, 45, has given birth to her third child, her first with partner Tanguy Destable, a French electronic music producer. She had previously spoken about being grateful and aware of the privilege of becoming pregnant again, given that she grew up hearing how hard it is for others to conceive due to her father's work as a fertility doctor. This is Portman's third child overall, following two children Aleph (15) and Amalia (9) with her ex-husband Benjamin Millepied. The baby's birth was announced after she had finished working on some acting projects and has been focusing on her family lately.

Why this leaning score
This article does not take a side on a contested political question, so it has no leaning score. That is an answer rather than a gap: a match report or a rescue can be warmly or critically written without being left or right, and scoring it anyway is how approval of a subject gets recorded as a political position.
