OK! previously reported the ballet dancer's romance with the environmentalist wasn't significant for Millepied.

"It was short-lived and it is over," a source close to the couple noted of his tryst. "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."

The pair met while filming the 2010 movie Black Swan, and Portman previously discussed the beginning of their courtship.

"I met my husband on it, so I think I was in, like, dreamland," she said of the Oscar-winning film during a 2018 interview. "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.'"
