MANHATTAN — Natalie Portman is pregnant and engaged to her choreographer boyfriend Benjamin Millepied, according to a news report.

The couple met on the set of "Black Swan," a thriller set in the New York City ballet scene, where Millepied, 33, played Portman's dance partner, the New York Post reported.

"I have always kept my private life private but I will say that I am indescribably happy and feel very grateful to have this experience," Portman said in a statement to Entertainment Weekly.
