It had been previously reported that the former couple were trying to work things out, however, it seems like they are now going their separate ways.

The pair met while working together on the set of the 2009 film ‘Black Swan’ directed by Darren Aronofsky. “I met my husband on it, so I think I was in, like, dreamland,” Portman said to SiriusXM back in 2018. “He was teaching me to dance. You know, one of those romantic [stories] … It was definitely exciting and fun. It was beautiful. I don’t know about instant. It was like I really got to know him and that was when it seemed like, ‘Oh this is the person.’”
