Natalie Portman, who is currently starring in the box-office hit &#8216;Thor&#8217;, is expecting her first child with choreographer fiance Benjamin Millepied.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span id=\"intelliTxt\"\/><\/p>\n<p><span>During an interview with The Sun&#8217;s Buzz Magazine, Portman spoke of her desire to emulate Hollywood icon Audrey Hepburn, who left Hollywood to begin a family. The actress said, &#8220;Audrey made some good choices in life&#8230; More and more I realise how unimportant it is to be in the history books or anything like that. Putting time and energy into your children, that&#8217;s valuable&#8221;. Portman has often spoken about the emotionally draining experience of filming &#8216;Black Swan&#8217;, in which she played a psychotic prima ballerina in one of the most demanding roles of her career. Despite winning an Oscar for the role, Portman insists it was a relief to begin work on the more light-hearted &#8216;Thor&#8217;, saying, &#8220;It probably delayed the onset of a total breakdown from the efforts of doing Black Swan, which is going to hit at any moment&#8230;.We got nice long breaks and I got to read in my trailer which was very comfortable and has a bed. I could eat whenever I wanted and train whenever I felt like it&#8221;.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span id=\"intelliTxt\"\/><\/p>\n<p><span>Natalie Portman also scooped a Golden Globe, Screen Actors Guild and Bafta award for her role in &#8216;Black Swan&#8217;. Her first child is due this summer and she currently has no further movie roles scheduled for 2011, other than already completed films.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Go here to read the rest:<br \/>\n<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.contactmusic.com\/news.nsf\/story\/natalie-portman-quitting-acting-to-start-family_1217384\" title=\"NATALIE PORTMAN - NATALIE PORTMAN QUITTING ACTING TO START FAMILY?\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">NATALIE PORTMAN &#8211; NATALIE PORTMAN QUITTING ACTING TO START FAMILY?<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> Caption: Natalie Portman (Picture) 2011 Vanity Fair Oscar Party at Sunset Tower Hotel &#8211; Arrivals West Hollywood, California&#8230;.
