NATALIE Portman, 43, looks incredible in plunging purple swimsuit as she soaks up the sun in St Barts

The actress was spotted spending the Christmas period in St. Barts and soaked up the sun in purple while enjoying the warm Caribbean waters.

Natalie strolled across St. Jean beach in her swimwear, while showing off her very impressive physique.

She popped her brunette locks up in a ponytail and embraced her natural beauty with a barefaced look while on her beach day.

The stunning Black Swan actress looked content as she enjoyed her solo dip, before heading back up the shore.

Natalie’s holiday comes after her divorce from husband Benjamin Millepied after 11 years of marriage.

She met Benjamin Millepied — a dancer and director — on the set of 2010 film Black Swan.

He choreographed the ballet-themed movie, for which Natalie won a Best Actress Oscar.

The couple married in 2012 and have two kids.

Israel-born American actress Portman filed for divorce in 2023, and it was finalised earlier this year in France, where the couple lived together.

And Natalie, who made her acting debut aged 12 in Leon, revealed this year that Rihanna shared some kind words to help her through her divorce.

The Star Wars actress met the 36-year-old for the first time at Paris Fashion Week in January and, after fangirling together, the singer told Natalie something that created a "formative moment."

In the clip, caught on camera, Natalie, 43, told Rihanna, “I love you" who in return, received the reply, “I am a f**king fan.”

The Black Swan star continued, "I’m gonna faint. I’m gonna black out.

"I love you and I listen to your music all the time… You’re just such a queen. Thank you," Natalie continued to praise the Fenty founder.

On Monday, Natalie told Jimmy Fallon on The Tonight Show that Rihanna had called her "one of the hottest b****** in Hollywood."

"I think every woman going through a divorce should get to have Rihanna say to her that she's a bad b****," she said.

Jimmy then got to his feet and gave her loud applause.

After they showed the clip of her with Rihanna, Natalie said, "It was exactly what I needed.

"It was a formative moment in my life," she added.
