Halle Berry, Olivier Martinez to divorce after 2 years
Halle Berry and actor Olivier Martinez are ending their two-year marriage and say they want to proceed with the best interests of their young son in mind.
The actors released a joint statement announcing the divorce on Tuesday, a day after Berry filed a divorce petition under a pseudonym. Martinez filed his own petition on Tuesday, and both cited irreconcilable differences for the breakup.
Both actors are open to joint custody, and Berry’s filing repeatedly requests that a judge enter orders that are “in the best interest” of their 2-year-old son.
“It is with a heavy heart that we have come to the decision to divorce,” the actors wrote in a joint statement. “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 and Martinez met while making the 2012 film “Dark Tide.” They married in July 2013.
