At the time, another source told the publication: “Natalie believes Benjamin’s affair was a brief and stupid liaison that means nothing to him.”

During her SiriusXM interview in June 2018 with host Hoda Kotb, Natalie, 42, described their first meeting: "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.'"
The duo got engaged in December 2010 and officially tied the knot at a private home in Big Sur, California in August 2012.
In 2011, the actress dedicated her Oscar win to her "beautiful love, Benjamin, who has now given me my most important role in my life."

NO WEDDING RING?

In March 2022, Natalie spoke about her children instead of her marriage to The Guardian.
She said: "Watching my son idolize players like Megan Rapinoe and Alex Morgan the same way he did Lionel Messi or Karim Benzema, I realized that amplifying female athletes could rapidly shift culture.
"Our dream is to make women’s soccer as valued as male soccer is throughout the world."
