Natalie Portman and Benjamin Millepied have welcomed their second child together!

A rep for the actress confirmed the news to The Huffington Post Friday. 

The baby girl, named Amalia, was born on Feb. 22 one week before her mom was meant to attend the Academy Awards. However, we’d say a new bundle of joy is a pretty great reason to skip the ceremony, as Portman did. 

“Mother and baby are happy and healthy,” the rep said in a statement. 

Amalia is the second child for Portman and her choreographer husband. The two are also parents to 5-year-old Aleph

Portman and Millepied met while filming 2010’s “Black Swan”; he choreographed and appeared in the film. The two got married in 2012

Congratulations to the happy family!
