Spotted without her wedding ring at glitzy galas and even during her book club, where she mused over Nora Ephron's 'Heartburn,' Natalie seemed to hint at her own heartache.

From 'Black Swan' to solo flight
Remember 2009? That's when the stars aligned on the 'Black Swan' set, leading to wedding bells in a dreamy Jewish ceremony in 2012. But even a fairytale move to Paris couldn't keep the love alive.
When 'Vanity Fair' pried into her private life, Natalie's response was pure class: "It’s terrible, and I have no desire to contribute." Mic drop!
