Halle Berry and Olivier Martinez are over as she files for divorce
Halle ‘The Body’ Berry
has called it quits with her French husband Olivier
Martinez after just two years of marriage. Well, I say
“just” – it probably works out as fifty years in
Hollyweird, but what do I know?
The 49-year-old actress was the one who filed for
divorce, and while the public statement would suggest
that there is no going back on this decision, she is
quoted as having said that the marriage had simply
run its course and it was not an acrimonious split.
The couple have a 2-year-old son by the name of
Maceo , so here’s hoping that all that is left to sort out
is a mature understanding of how best to look after
the child as opposed to the circus that happened with
her daughter Nahla after her split with Gabriel
Aubry.
Martinez and Berry said in a joint statement to the
media:
It is with a heavy heart that we have come to
the decision to divorce. We move forward
with love and respect for one another and the
shared focus of what is best for our son. We
wish each other nothing but happiness in life
and we hope that you respect our and, most
importantly, our children’s privacy as we go
through this difficult period.
Berry has been spotted without her ring for months,
but at the time, she claimed she’d lost it in Mexico
way back in January. Today, the split has been
ascribed to irreconcilable differences according to
TMZ who initially broke the news. We certainly wish
them all the best as they go about their separate lives.
This will be Ms Berry’s third divorce when finalised.
Now, I’m no Oprah and I’ve never even been married
before, but I can’t help thinking perhaps if the
ravishing Ms Berry could learn how to cook party jollof
rice…lol
