Natalie Portman and her folk rocker beau, Devendra Banhart, have split, according to People.
The couple reportedly met when Portman, who is a big fan of the musician, asked Banhart to donate a song to the iTunes charity compilation, “Big Change: Songs for FINCA,” and in return she thanked him by appearing in the video for his song, “Carmensita.” The couple began dating soon after shooting the video in July.
“Things just weren’t working out,” a source close to Portman told Us Weekly. “Natalie is young and they just were very different ultimately.”
“She’s really a free spirit,” the source added. “She’s complicated because she’s very serious about her career and smart but also artistic and free-thinking. It’s tough to match.”
When contacted by Us Weekly, a rep for Banhart had no comment.
