Crushable Quotable: Natalie Portman Is No Longer a Vegan

It’s not as if Natalie Portman, expecting her first child with fiance Benjamin Millepied, will be ordering rib-eye steaks anytime soon. But the Your Highness star admitted that she’s put aside her vegan lifestyle to listen to her body’s cravings for eggs and dairy, thus making her vegetarian for the next few months.

“If you’re not eating eggs, then you can’t have cookies or cake from regular bakeries, which can become a problem when that’s all you want to eat. I actually wanted eggs at the beginning and then they grossed me out after awhile. …I know there are people who do stay vegan, but I think you have to just be careful, watch your iron levels and your B12 levels and supplement those if there are things you might be low in in your diet.”

Pregnancy 1, veganism 0.
