“I understand why her husband cheated on her”: the Internet criticized Natalie Portman’s photos in a bikini (6 photos)
Natalie Portman was caught by the paparazzi while on holiday in Saint Barthelemy. The 43-year-old actress spent her first holiday season after her divorce from French choreographer Benjamin Millepied. She showed off her toned figure in a black bikini, but that wasn't enough for her ill-wishers.
Some even suggested that it was her figure that caused the divorce.
"I understand why her husband cheated on her," wrote a viewer.
And each attack was offensive. Some shamed Portman for not looking feminine enough, while others suggested that she was suffering from an illness.
"Something is wrong with her boobs. They're not even flat, they look like melted wax," another netizen added.
Some hinted that the actress had an eating disorder or was using aggressive weight loss drugs like Ozempic.
Fans defended Natalie: "The number of negative comments shows that humanity is going through hard times. People who leave such comments poison our world with their stench"; "No woman enjoying her vacation wants to appear in front of the paparazzi cameras in her best form, especially if she is unaware of the shooting. This is not a photo shoot. How else should she look?"; "How can you write such nasty things about a woman?"; "She has the body of a young girl."
The actress went on a trip to the Caribbean a few months after she officially filed for divorce from Millepied. Portman broke up with her husband after learning about his infidelity with 26-year-old Camille Etienne.
Portman and Millepied got engaged in 2010 and tied the knot in August 2012. In June 2011, their son Alef was born, and in February 2017, their daughter Amalia.
In 2022, the couple briefly separated, but on their 10th wedding anniversary, they tried to improve their relationship.
