Halle Berry Brief History
Model and actress Halle Berry never seems to age. She looks as gorgeous today as she did twenty years ago. Her launch to fame came as a Bond girl.
There was no stopping her career once she started, and later won an Academy Award for her portrayal in Monster. It was a historical moment as she was the first African American woman to win the award.
She’s also won Emmy awards and Golden Globes. While her beauty may have opened doors, it’s her talent that keeps her star shining. She’s widely known these days for her role in the X-Man series.
As for her personal life, she’s been paired with many, but nothing seems to stick. Her first marriage to David Justice, baseball player, ended after a couple of years.
Then her next marriage to Eric Benet ended when his sex addiction broke their marriage apart. She shares a daughter with model Gabriel Aubry, but their union ended after five years.
She then married Oliver Martinez, with whom she shares a son, but their marriage split after two years as well.
Her career has lasted longer than all her marriages combined. But today, she has two children to celebrate.
