Halle Berry won’t walk through the bad relationship ever, since she had twice divorced and having bad experiences with those. She is now a mother of a 15 months old, Nahla with model Gabriel Aubry her partner.
Her experiences in marriage had change the way she look on that marriage thing. She believes more in the healthy relationship.
“I’m much clearer about what a relationship is, which is why I will never marry again. Gabriel and I have a great partnership and a lovely daughter. But I once was stupid enough to say, in a previous relationship, ‘I’m going to be with this person for ever,’ and realised, as I grew, that I don’t know if for ever is possible.”
“Gabriel and I don’t look at our relationship in terms of for ever, we look at it as right here today. And today means being the best people we can be, the best parents we can be. It’s wonderful, but neither one of us feels the need to attach ourselves to each other for life – because it may not be that.”
Perhaps Gabriel Aubry is not a husband to her but he is a good father for Nahla, and a responsible one. “When I’m not filming, I’m pretty hands-on with Nahla, and so is Gabriel; so much so that he’s my nanny – that’s what I tell him,” she says, laughing. “I’m just kidding. But we work together so well on the childcare.”
The Cat Woman has credited motherhood with helping her land the title of Sexiest Woman Alive. It was handed by men’s style magazine Esquire at her age of 42. Yet she is happy and convinced that the sexy she had is from the motherhood, since her daughter cheering her days.
“I think those things are kind of silly because nobody is the sexiest anything, so I asked them to let me write my own article to poke fun at the label. What I thought was interesting about them choosing me was that I had just had a baby, so it was all about saying that motherhood can be sexy – that was the important thing.”
“I do feel sexier because I’m now more in line with my purpose for being on the planet. When you feel empowered, to me that’s sexy.”
Becoming sexy caused of motherhood, might change her in seeing the whole world and for sure her priority change until she had the little Nahla, “My priority had been myself for a long, long time, but now it will always be Nahla. You think you know what love is – until you have a child and discover that unconditional mother love.”
Although the greatness of motherhood attrack her much but she won’t give up on acting then become a full mom. She believe about the balance of life,
“I believe that in order to be a good parent, I’ve got to be happy myself, and making movies is my form of expression – so I will find a way to balance the two.”
Her last vilm Frankie & Alice, she roles about woman with multiple personality disorder. Her next is Nappily Ever After, a romcom about a broody woman finding herself late in life.
She has the youth that can be learnt for her future, and she is becoming wiser and beautifully mature on her 42.
“As a mature woman, you are no longer trying to prove yourself,” she explains. “You pretty much have figured out who you are. And I feel the right to do and say and be whatever I want. I don’t have to make excuses. And I’m no longer so ambitious that I spend every waking moment trying to be something I’m not, which I did in my youth.”
She had the terrific body in the Bond movie, Die Another Day, she tips for regaining the figure after giving birth is breast-feeding. “It’s the absolute right thing to do for your baby – and the right thing to do for your body,” and about giving Nahla little sister or brother, she opens to the idea.
Like another parents, Halle Berry has dreams and hopes for her daughter’s future, since some people did define her by race. Still in positive thinking, that the things will continue to change.
“Now that Barack Obama is president, hopefully more people of colour will find equality at all levels of life. My daughter’s world will be indelibly different to my world, and that’s evolution. Twenty years ago, when I started in this business, it wasn’t like this at all. I’m happy to have been around to be a part of it.”
Another dream for another life, just keep that hope and do not give up.
