Natalie Portman flashed a glimpse of underboob in a figure-hugging black dress with a racy cutout across her chest while attending the 14th Annual Governors Awards at The Ray Dolby Ballroom in Los Angeles, California.
As she arrived to the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences on Tuesday, all eyes were on the actress, 42, who seemingly confirmed the end of her nearly 12-year marriage to husband Benjamin Millepied during a chat with WSJ. Magazine.
The Black Swan star looked nothing short of sensational in her sleeveless halter neck gown with a gold chain detail, which draped across her shoulders, and coordinating clutch.
For makeup, she rocked a bright red lipstick, black winged eyeliner, which made her hazel eyes pop, and blush for a radiant and youthful glow.

Missing accessory: Portman was seen, yet again, without her wedding ring
Her scarlet pout matched her freshly manicured nails, but did not distract from the missing accessory on her left singer.
Portman was seen without her wedding ring at the Golden Globes over the weekend, and did not bring Millepied as her date.
In a new interview, released on Tuesday, the performer stated that she lives in Paris with her two children, while making no mention of her spouse, following rumors he had an affair with a much-younger woman last year.
Despite speculation of her and Millepied’s marital woes, both he and the Star Wars alum have stayed tight-lipped about the allegations.
According to WSJ. Magazine, their reporter spoke to the movie star at her home in Paris, where they said she resides with her kids Aleph, 12, and daughter Amalia, six.
Since the cheating allegations were first made public, Portman has been seen without the piece of jewelry on numerous occasions.
The last time she was spotted with it on her finger was in early June – days after his alleged infidelity was revealed.
At the time, a French outlet called Voici released an explosive report that claimed the choreographer had cheated on Portman with a 25-year-old climate activist named Camille Étienne.

People reported at the time that his romance with Étienne was ‘short-lived’ and is now ‘over’ – and that Millepied was ‘doing all he could’ to get ‘Natalie to forgive him and keep their family together.’
‘He knows he made an enormous mistake and he is doing all he can to get Natalie to forgive him and keep their family together,’ a source told the publication.
‘Natalie is incredibly private and has no intention of playing this out in the media. Her biggest priority is protecting her children and their privacy.’
In early August, however, an insider told Us Weekly that the pair were separating after failing to repair their relationship amid the bombshell cheating allegations.

Seemingly separated: In a new interview, released on Tuesday, the performer stated that she lives in Paris with her two children, while making no mention of her spouse; seen in July 2022
‘After news of his affair came out, they’ve been trying to work on their marriage but are currently on the outs,’ the source said.
However, someone close to the mom-of-two told DailyMail.com days later that the reports of them ending their marriage were just ‘rumors’ and ‘speculation’ – and that no firm decision had been made.
The insider said that Portman ‘still doesn’t know’ if she wants to get a divorce, despite the rumors of his infidelity leaving her feeling ‘powerless.’
‘[Natalie] hates that [Benjamin’s] infidelity has made her feel powerless,’ said the source.
‘She doesn’t know if she can regain her power by staying with him or leaving him. It is really a struggle to have to continue to deal with it.’
But the source insisted that ‘deep down,’ Portman and the French dancer are still ‘really in love’ and are trying to work through their problems.
Is it over? The pair met back in 2009 on the set of her psychological horror film Black Swan, for which he did the choreography, and they married in 2012. They’re seen in 2022
‘They are really taking it day by day because deep down they are really in love, and they are trying to figure out what has caused the distance between them,’ they continued.
‘She wants to stay with him, and he really wants to be with her. They both know that breaking up and staying together forever are still on the table and only time will tell what direction they will actually take.’
Portman and Millepied were seen together for the first time following the rumors in August, when they attended the FIFA Women’s World Cup final in Sydney, Australia together along with their son.
They also stepped out together in Paris with their two kids in September. They looked tense as they exited their apartment and escorted their children to school.
