It looks like Emma Stone is not the only one who put on a few pounds. The lovely Natalie Portman attended a photo call at the 73rd Venice Film Festival for the 2016 biographical drama film Jackie.

The award-winning actress plays the iconic First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy, going through the aftermath of her husband’s assassination.

Natalie sparked pregnancy rumors as the public noticed the weight gain and a hint of a baby bump in a floral dress that featured ruffle details.

If the rumors are true, this would be Natalie’s second child with husband Benjamin Millepied. Although Natalie has enough natural beauty to carry her by, we’re totally disappointed with her dress choice.

The gown from the Red Valentino Resort 2017 collection does nothing to showcase her beauty.

We get that she might be trying to hide her figure, but there are many more flattering options that would not make her look so matronly.
