Yesterday we covered the news of Halle Berry switching lawyers in an attempt to get the judge in her custody battle to grant her request to move to France, thus cutting her ex off from their daughter by default. I mentioned that I was awaiting Gabriel’s response in Radar, and that I thought he had stooped to Halle’s level. A lot of you took me to task for that, which is fair. Gabriel is only responding to some incredibly strong-arm tactics to separate him from his daughter. The thing that kind of soured me on Gabriel is an earlier story in Radar, after he was investigated for battery and interviewed by CFS, that he felt like he was living “in a police state.” He may have been unfairly targeted in that instance, and maybe the nanny was acting under instruction from Halle, but the whole thing didn’t sit right with me. I just seemed like both parties were in the wrong. Well now we have Gabriel’s inevitable response to Halle Berry’s lawyer switch. He says that this latest move by Halle to get a ruthless lawyer may backfire on her. I hope he’s right. Here’s some of the report from Radar, with more at the source:
Halle Berry’s decision to dump her long time trusted and respected attorney, Neil Hersh, for legal pitbull, Stephen Kolodny, in her ongoing custody battle with Gabriel Aubry over their daughter Nahla, isn’t fazing the Canadian model and he feels this could actually help his case, RadarOnline.com is exclusively reporting.
Halle was unhappy that the family law judge hasn’t made a ruling about her request to move to France,” an insider told RadarOnline.com. “The judge has indicated that more time is needed and more information needs to be gathered before a ruling is made. This wasn’t good enough for Halle, in Gabe’s opinion, so she fired Neil Hersh, who is greatly respected, and hired Stephen Kolodny because he is known as a bulldozer.
“Neither Gabe nor his lawyer are scared or intimidated by Stephen. Gabe thinks this will help his case, because he thinks it shows how desperate and impatient she is. He doesn’t believe either that Halle is afraid for her safety, when was the last time you saw her taking Nahla to school with a bodyguard? He believes it’s just another plot she is hatching to keep Gabriel out of Nahla’s life.”
A formal ruling on Halle’s request to move to France could take up to a year, meanwhile, Gabriel is doing everything he can to be the best parent possible and to spend as much time as he is permitted with his daughter.
“Gabe’s attending his court ordered anger management sessions and parenting classes,” the source says. “He isn’t a bad guy, he is trying to be the best dad possible to Nahla. He feels that Nahla is the collateral damage in all of this, and that breaks his heart.”
[From Radar]
I buy that Gabriel is a good dad, but I also buy that he could benefit from anger management courses, and I’m glad he’s complying with the court order. All in all, this is a convincing story by Gabriel’s side, and I hope that he’s right that Halle will get shut down in court. If it takes a whole year before the judge will rule on her request to move to France she’ll probably be broken up with Oliver Martinez by then anyway. Where is she going to move then, and what will her excuse be? Sure she fears the paparazzi, but she could move an hour or two from L.A. and have a lot more privacy. Or, as many of you have mentioned, she could also just move to a gated community or get more security. Problem solved.
After I wrote all that, another story came out in Radar about how “Gabriel is being urged to write a no-holds barred book about what his relationship with Halle was really about.” He swears he’s not going to write it, but he’s putting it out there very strongly anyway. This pretty much solidifies my earlier opinion of him. Someone needs to take the high road and he’s not doing it! He could have left it with the earlier story, which I thought sounded too mature for him. Here’s part of Radar’s story.
“Gabriel is being urged to write a no-holds barred book about what his relationship with Halle was really about,” a source close to the situation tells radarOnline.com. “From what I can tell, Halle has to be in control at all times, period. It’s the reason that they broke up, because he just couldn’t handle being under her thumb like that. Gabe feels that relationships are about treating each other equally, but in it seems that in Halle’s romantic relationships, this isn’t the case.
“Gabe’s friends want the world to know the real Halle Berry. However, Gabriel has had many offers to write books and give interviews in exchange for a big payday, but he has turned them all down. One day, Nahla is going to be old enough to understand what was going on between her parents, and he wants to be able to look his daughter in the eye, and say everything he has done, has been for her. Writing a book would be a great way to get back at Halle, but what would that get him? Gabe always thinks of his daughter when making any decision. Halle should count her lucky stars that her ex is being a gentleman, especially under these circumstances.”
[From Radar]
Gabriel needs to just STOP. We get it, Halle is manipulative and controlling. And he’s petty and whiny. There’s legitimately defending yourself and there’s being threatening and passive aggressive. At least he’s not actually writing a tell all. Time will tell though, because it sounds like he’s really considering it and is trying to use it as leverage.
Update: A lot of you are pointing out that Gabriel is being pushed in a corner and threatened with having custody of his daughter taken away, and that he’s responding in a way that’s pretty reserved and understandable given the circumstances. I see what you mean and think I did come down too hard on him above. There’s been a lot of back and forth in this case and hopefully Gabriel will retain his parental rights.

Go for it, Gabriel! Tell it..
like gabriel said (( another plot she is hatching to keep Gabriel out of Nahla’s life
I feel for the poor kid.
Used to feel bad for Halle years ago, now its pretty obvious that’s she’s nuts.
That poor, poor child. Neither parent seems very stable.
Berry doesn’t seem to realise that having a child with someone actually links you to that person. It never stops, no more than being a parent stops.
I am the world’s biggest Daddy’s Girl. But everyone I know who grew up without a father is hurt in some way by that lack. So it’s puzzling to me that she would try to deny her daugter a father.
How many women would lovelovelove it if their baby daddies wanted to step up? (I think a better way to step up is to marry your kids’ mother and stay with her, but that ship has sailed in this case.)
Liz -you are so right! I grew up w/o a dad and it was awful. Nothing can fill that void. To deprive this little girl of her doting father, out of malice, blows my mind.
These two jerks do not seem to care that their DAUGHTER is the focus of all this spite!
I have to thoroughly disagree with you on this one. Halle IMO is clearly manipulating her daughter and nanny in order to get Gabriel out of the picture. She wanted a sperm donor and ended up with a man who actually wants to be apart of his child’s life. I think Halle is disgusting and acting horribly. If he wants to play ‘passive aggressive’ in all of this, I say more power to him. There is only so much ‘high road’ you can do when someone is making life so miserable for you.
He should take the high road as long as he possibly can. Having said that, I do believe that he will get down and dirty if he has to and he should. You just cannot alienate a parent the way that Halle is trying to do and expect them to stand meekly by while you do. I can’t imagine anyone would lose their child w/o a true fight.
I think that the source is just putting it out there, that if he WANTED to, he could do some damage to Berry’s reputation with the truth on her private life.
A scare tactic to try and get Halle’s side to back off and let him be a father.
It won’t work however, you would think that he knows her well enough to know that. He better have a high powered attorney himself… she will claw until she gets what she wants.
I agree with everything you just wrote.
So do I. When you’re faced with someone who is willing to do whatever it takes to get what they want, taking the “high road” pretty much equals “nice guys finish last”.
I’m not sure there’s a way to play nice with Berry. When there is a psycho involved there is no rationale.
She is SO cute with the pink kitty-wearing-shades t-shirt! Every time I see pics of her, my heart hurts because I truly think that both parents love her dearly and she obviously loves them back. I just don’t understand how pettiness and vindictiveness can cloud their judgment when it comes to that adorable little one. It’s just such a tragedy..
I so agree with you on every point that you have made.
Seriously Gabe has to start playing dirty and threatening a tell all is the first step.
Anyone remember a blind item about a mother who has bad relationships with men and then blames the men who was strung out on drugs??? Halle?
She needs to play FAIR!
Halle doesn’t see Gabriel as a father at all, just a sperm donor. So in her twisted and self-obsessed little mind he doesn’t deserve to feel love or have “fatherly” feelings for the poor little girl. Agree that this will take a long time to iron out and she’ll probably have broken up with Martinez by then, her track record at maintaining relationships is pretty bad, and he’ll probably be sick of her histrionics and the accompanying media circus by then anyway.
Agree, Asli.
I actually don’t think Gabriel is being whiney and stooping to her level. What would you do if you were being publicly smeared? I think you would also speak out and set the record straight. Halle has the money here and with money comes power. The only thing Gabe has is the media. So he’s using his resources. It’s very sad that it has to come to this but I’m very sure if Halle stopped her smearing campaign, it all would go private again.
I agree. a friend of mine had a crazy woman who put his name up on stdcarriers.com and accused him of giving her HPV and Hep C. He is a fairly popular public affairs officer in the military and she was a one night stand that stalked him for a while. She got angry that he got a restraining order on her so she submitted that false information to the website and it takes FOREVER to get that information off the site. Like lawyers have to be involved and STD tests etc. He made a website during that time to explain why someone is accusing him of an STD just in case someone googled him and that std website popped up. Sometimes you have to fight fire with fire. I know in Gabriel’s case I’d have a hard time keeping my mouth shut if my ex tried to take my child away from me for good
Halle chose him to be the FATHER of that baby. He will always be the Dad so the crazy woman needs to face that fact and quit trying to manipulate the courts to get what she wants which is total control of THEIR baby. She is a lying, crazy woman who thinks she can control everything and everyone. GABRIEL AUBREY WILL BE THE FATHER FOREVER
As someone who’s husband just finished an expensive custody battle with his ex-wife, I can understand why Gabriel would be tempted to write a tell-all. Firstly, when one person tries to take the high road but the other ex-partner refuses to do so and starts mugslinging(Halle), it is almost impossible to stay on that high road especially when these lies or half-truths or whatever are made public. Unfortunately, when your ex loudly mudslings and you say nothing, people believe the mudslinging because that’s all they hear and figure if you are not vigourously defending yourself, then it must be true.
Secondly, I cannot understand some women who think that fathers are interchangable. Why does Halle think that she can exchange Gabriel with Oliver or whatever man of the moment and it won’t matter to Nahla. While you may be able to replace a male role model, you cannot replace a father, especially a loving one.
And he may be considering writing a tell-all because he may need the money to pay for lawyers. Custody battles are extremely expensive and Halle has deep pockets.
I wish she would just suck it up and realize that she can’t have her way everytime and start thinking about putting her daughter first. She needs to wake up and stop wasting her energy on hating and focus her energy on making that little girl happy and fulfilled.
I always feel for the child(ren) of 2 a**holes. Especially when they split. That little girl is gorgeous and I wish she could get away from BOTH of her parents until they learn what it really means to be a good parent.
I always love how a guy or woman for that matter id blamed for causing strife in a child’s life when an ex acts crazy. It takes one parent to make a family system dysfunctional. You can’t change the situation because you wish it was different.The tension and dysfunction become part of your life. And nothing you do can change it.If you have never dealt with an ex partner with a personality disorder. You need to stop putting your spin on it. Stop telling the victimized parent they are bad.You are clueless.She is crazy. He is a victim of her crazy because he is the other parent.What I would like to know is why Mr Martinez is going along with this. He is one sick dude. To watch your girlfriend destroy her ex is beyond sick.
You have NAILED this. Dealing with someone who has narcissistic personality disorder doesn’t follow the
normal world accepted rules of common sense.
(Been there, too.)
Martinez…I don’t get it. I don’t think Halle hides the crazy very well publically, I can’t imagine the crazy overdose that he has to have witnessed. Get out man, get out!
“What I would like to know is why Mr Martinez is going along with this. He is one sick dude. To watch your girlfriend destroy her ex is beyond sick.”
Or, alternatively, he’s hearing from Berry what an aggressive, manipulative, lying scumbag Aubry was, and he believes it because he loves her, and he thinks he needs to stick by her.
Maybe she IS a psycho, I don’t know; and maybe when she and Martinez eventually split up, he’ll be on the receiving end of her bitterness. Right now she’s got Aubry to aim all her bile at, so Martinez just has to be sympathetic and loving. He’s getting Nice Halle Berry. The minute he does something she doesn’t like, he’ll see the Nasty Halle, and maybe wonder if all the horrible stuff she said about Gabriel Aubry was actually true.
The point is, right now, Martinez isn’t being a sick enabler – he’s just being supportive of his GF.
Or maybe she IS a saint and Aubry is a scumbag. Really, only they know the reality of their relationship.
I think he’s an attention whore. No one would take his photo if it wasn’t for his connection to Berry.
are you kidding, everyone should look as good as he does and loads of people would love to take his picture. He is one fine-looking man
Um…what? The man is a professional model. People actually pay him alot of money just to take his picture. Please don’t respond to a thread when you obviously have no idea what you’re talking about.
Really? I don’t think he was on anyone’s radar before he hooked up with Halle. I also doubt his lifestyle was as luxurious before his relationship with Halle. And, do you seriously believe he’d be on gossip pages that frequently without this custody battle? Men who hook up with so-called “crazy” women usually aren’t that great themselves.
Thank Anne; you couldn’t have said it any better. Guess what everyone she is also paying Gabriel attorney fees. So if he is making all of that great money then why isn’t he paying for his own attorney fees? Why is she paying for them? Plus he is the one who keeps taking for to court for every little thing. This has everything to do with her money and nothing to with their daughter. I know you all want to hate Halle, but we only know what the media is putting out there. None of us really know what is going on in this matter (behind closed doors). All that I am hoping that they can come to some agree for their child sake.
Show me all his jobs he has done in the last few years. I doubt many.
He models regularly for a fashion company that I work for. He just did a spread last month for us. He’s one of the most sought out models in the fashion industry. Don’t slam him or his occupation until you do some research first.
I read the way Halle originally saw GA was because he was in a huge ad/photo on the side of a bus in NYC. Right after that, he “coincidentally” ended up in a photo shoot with Halle. GA is wealthy in his own right. He’s been a working model for years. I saw him not long ago in my son’s Maxim, for True Religion AND for another company at the same time, in the same mag! The Judge ordered Halle to pay GA’s Court fees, as she is the one who keeps wanting to come back to Court every week. He only wants to be a good Dad. Halle’s the problem. Hope the Judge has this figured out finally.
@Jayna – He has just covered ads for HUGO BOSS and TRUE RELIGION in 2011.
I also think he met Halle on a VERSACE ad shoot.
In the past he has done everything from CALVIN KLEIN to DKNY. He gets major campaigns every year going right back to 2001.
He really is one of the top male models at the moment. I think only David Gandy out earns him.
That said, model money isn’t movie star money.
He’s a model. He was getting his picture taken long before Halle came along.
Petty and whiny? Because he can’t see his daughter? How is that petty and whiny? Halle seems to be the petty and whiny one in this scenario. I don’t see what her issue is. Let him see his child. She doesn’t even have to look at his face, just have her little bags ready and waiting when it’s his turn to visit. It’s how I deal with my ex…he gets his kids who wait for him outside, and I don’t even have to give him a head nod or hello.
I do not believe that Gabe would be so stupid as to announce his intention not to write a book. This feels like more of Halle’s camp spewing crap aimed at getting a court order to prevent him damaging her already tarnished image. It has been OK for Berry’s camp to leak stories to TMZ destroying his reputation but there was NOTHING leaked about them having joint custody and court ordered monitor/nanny/snitch at BOTH homes until the nanny stated it in her complaint/report.
Gabe is just trying to be a good dad to a kid with a psycho muther with more money than sense or love for her kid.
I thought it was pretty obvious that that little bit was a plant too- I don’t know why anything given to Radar has to be attributed to G.A.- it’s always a “friend”, or an “informed source”.
I don’t understand if Gabe has all these bad things to say about Halle why is it not coming out in Court. The judge is the one who needs to hear it so why the threat of a tell-all? Unless the tell-all is more to embarrass her publically and isn’t enough to affect child-custody issues then I can see him trying to blackmail her and if that is the case go ahead. She deserves it. And Halle never looks very loving or motherly in any photo I have ever seen of her and her daughter whereas with Gabe you can clearly see an affection there. And as I said before I know some people just aren’t all warm and fuzzy like Jen Garner but it is worth pointing out just the same.
I feel for Gabe, I see shades of my ex sis in law in Halle. My brother is going through a custody battle of his own, and the lies that his ex is telling people about my brother and my family have completely left us heartbroken and fuming. We did everything short of rolling out a red carpet for her and she in turn has been saying horrible things about us and him. My heart aches for my niece because we all adore her and want her in our lives but her mother is doing everything to sever that tie. It’s baffling to me.
How sad. They made the decision to have a child together, and yet it’s become all about them and their power struggle. The poor kid’s just a pawn.
Halle seems to be the bigger problem here though. If she wanted freedom to take her child wherever and not have to share parental rights, she should have had a child on her own or adopted. Again, she made this choice, now she has to accept it and play by the rules.
Seriously. Both sides need to grow up and be mature responsible adults. Why does their 3 year old daughter seem more mature than they do?
Maybe Halle should take some anger courses instead of Gabe. What a spiteful, vindictive b*&%)
How is this his problem-that a “source” talked about this? Not every story a tabloid gets is from the persons directly involved. Is he getting offers to write a book? I’m sure he is. It specifically says “Gabe’s friends” -I’m sure its them turning in the story whether he wants them to or not.
Also she’s trying to move their daughter to France-I’d SKIP the “Source Stories” and go straight to
sh!t blowing up like the Godfather if someone was trying to move halfway around the world with my children.
Sorry-he does NOT come off like he’s whining-its his frickin’ CHILD!
Don’t think he’s being whiny & petty. I am glad he’s taking the anger management classes because he is in a highly stressed position of wanting to be with his daughter & being denied/subverted by her mother.
I actually think putting it out there that he might write a tell-all is pretty smart. It might force Halle to petition for a gag order or the judge might take it upon himself to institute one. Either way, Gabriel would win because neither side would be able to provide Radar or TMZ with any inside information.
I can’t tell from the outside who is right and who is wrong in this case … I just feel so sorry for Baby Girl. Whatever is the root cause of the drama in this little girl’s life, the chaos is likely to leave some lifelong scars. It’s hard to watch celebrity children grow up. At least the grown-up parents had some choice about life in the cray cray fishbowl.
What does GA need to STOP? Trying to fight for his daughter? The only reports I see attached to GA is in response to HB’s actions. He’s the one on the receiving end, so to call him petty and whiny is just twisting the knife. What is the high road in this situation? Staying mum about being constantly publicly villified? Will that result in Nahla turning round in 12 years and asking why he didn’t fight for her?
THIS all day.
Ugh yes! My husband is going through this and has been for the most part of his daughter’s life. He hadn’t talked to her in a year and finally his daughter got in touch with him and the first thing she asked was “why didn’t you fight for me”. The only answer he had was “why should I HAVE to fight to see my daughter?”. He told her that he had fought for so many years that he eventually was worn down. I totally see how frustrating this is for GA. He’s going to anger management probably because he’s been pushed so far that he lashed out. My husband has been there and then these women use it against them. But when you get a phone call from your child saying “mommy told me if you aren’t there on time next time, that you won’t see me anymore”, how angry would you be? Being a mother myself, I would NEVER take my son’s father away from him. I know how it will affect my child in the end. Children should never be used as a pawn to get back at eachother. The psychological scars never go away.
I do get your point Feebee and I agree with you guys that he is just fighting for his daughter. The tell all stuff went too far, but I see what you mean about how he’s been pushed in a corner. I came down too hard on him in the final paragraph.
It’s ok CB…some of us have personal experiences with situations like these and so we often get heated. 🙂
All the picts with him and his daugter show her looking very comfortable and happy with him. The the pict with Halle and her it looks like she is trying to pull away from her and would rather be anywhere but there. Sure it is not what it looks like, but still. Telling? Lol 😉
That is what I have noted several times on here if you look at the history of photos of Halle and her daughter and the ones of Gabe and his daughter you can see who seems to have the better connection. And as someone said above and I have mentioned several times I think she is a classic narcissist and he is in for the fight of his life because those kind of people have no moral compass.

I’ve always thought that Halle appears in photos very often to be dragging the child along. Not walking WITH her but actually walking her. I thought that before this custody thing even happened.
Hmmm, maybe that’s why she is pulling out all the big guns in this custody battle, because she’s extremely jealous of the good relationship Nahla has with her daddy. Sever the relationship and she gets her daughter’s affection all to herself.
Petty and whiny? Why? Because he’s doing whatever he can to continue being a parent? I’d roll up with flamethrowers and pitchforks if my ex was trying to take my child to away. Halle is a crazy, selfish woman who needs to be brought back to reality. Kudos to Gabe for threatnening a tell-all. Maybe it will scare her enough to make her back off.
Yeah, you’re totally off the mark this time. I’d say he was being smart and (finally) responding appropriately.
I get your point Cidee and others who have commented with this. See my comment above, I came down too hard on Gabriel for this. It just seemed like more back and forth to me, but I get it now that he’s behaving appropriately and even in a reserved way to the crap he’s been dealing with. We’ll have to see how this plays out, and hopefully little Nahla will still be able to see both her parents.
Thanks for explaining your positions nicely and clearly on this and have a good weekend you guys. 8)
Well I think she is an ice-queen BITCH!
And I am willing to tell it to all!
Nahla’s little hand on his face, so sweet, cute picture. Nahla is getting big.
Why does everyone hate Halle sooooooo much? Is she really that bad? All I have heard is her bad relationships with men, but those men were dogs. Exhusband were abusive and cheaters. Why does Halle have such a bad rep?
Because she’s a pathological narcissist. Because she is willing to smear her daughter’s father and try and set him up for abuse allegations, so she can move to france with whoever that french dude is.
I honestly believe nothing that comes out of this clearly vindictive woman. I don’t believe she was abused (unless someone else admitted it); she wants the world to see her as a victim when in reality she victimizes anyone who dares to not give her what she wants.
I think she is the equivalent of LeAnn Rimes in terms of dangerous crazy, and I think she would have no problem harming GA (physically or mentally) if it meant getting her way.
her child has no part in this drama. Her daughter is not in danger when with her father (IMO) and she genuinely seems to adore him.
Anyone who is such a piece of garbage as to purposefully try to ruin a father/daughter relationship for no other reason than selfishness and hurt feelings is a poor excuse for a mother and a poor excuse for a human being.
This is why I hate her (and I use that term very loosely.
Oh, and I am very disappointed in whoever wrote this article. He is being lambasted, and he’s the bad guy? what is he supposed to do; give up custody and his daughter, and let her be brought up by a nut job with no moral compass? Is that the high road you speak of? Ridiculous
@Britobsesses, Celebitchu wrote the article and has since posted a few responses. Read those and then if you can still come back and post you are disappointed, more power to you. Personally I believe her responses were wonderful especially since she was stating her opnion, which correct me if I’m wrong, that is what we all do. :-):-)
I don’t think that Gabriel will write a “tell-all” book, simply because of the person he is. He has said many times that he does not like being in the spotlight, the paparazzi,etc. Gabriel is truly an angel that has been pushed to far by a scorned woman. I feel so sorry for him, for ever getting involved with Halle. His relationship with her has been a nightmare and brought out the worst in him, which is, getting very angry at the way he is being treated, and depicted in the media. I mean, who wouldn’t get angry under the circumstances of what she is doing. I don’t think Gabriel would do anything to hurt his child, or his reputation. He is MUCH NICER than I, because if it were me, I would have written a book a year ago, exposing this vicious tramp for whom she really is. But for Gabe, he is a gentleman and I respect that so much, in him. I want him to find a nice girl and have more babies, while he is waiting for justice with this witch.
If he did later decide to write a book,I would 100% support him and be the first to buy the book. I think thousands of people that are in his corner would.
Actually, this man is so gorgeous that he could make movies and become another Brad Pitt. He is just too beautiful and really doesn’t need Halle for anything, i.e, except to give him fairness with his gorgeous little baby girl. That’s what is obviously driving Halle crazy, the fact that this gorgeous man doesn’t want her, but will fight for his little girl!
“Gabriel needs to just STOP.”
HE needs to stop? What about Halle!?
If putting it out there he is being urged to write a book is taking things too far, then how about her using a stalker as an excuse to cut her daughter off from her father?
Sorry, I don’t think Gabriel making it known that others want him to write a book is pushing it. The man is up against a wall with a well known star that has a lot of money who hates him. He is fighting for his daughter and so far I haven’t seen him do anything as underhanded as try to whisk Nahla so far from Halle that it would cut her off from her daughter. Your perspective on this is skewed.
I think Halle knows if she can just push the right buttons on him, she will get him to snap and have more reason to go back to court to get the kid away from him. You don’t think it has not crossed his mind he *could* possibly lose his daughter?
Gabriel has been much more contained than most would have been in his position.
If he leaked the book thing then I don’t blame him, hopefully Halle will see it as a threat ‘back off b*tch or I will tell all.
In all pics of him and Nahla I see a little girl who adores her father.
I don’t think Gabriel is petty and whiny at all. Stop what? That’s ridiculous. People believe what they read in the last media gossip about him. He is attending anger management courses right now even after the bogus claims from the nanny. He’s got a tough battle ahead of him with less money for pitbull lawyers and the fact courts favour the mother in custody issues.
He said he will not be writing a tell-all book as he has enough problems right now without throwing that into the mix.
Do it Gabriel – tell all – please.
Even if I don’t read the book, I swear i will buy at least ten copies just to help him out
I would too…remember Halle herself said he was a good father just a month before they broke up.
w/e team halle and her nanny
I think it proves his true class and love for his daughter that he wont even consider writing a tell all, that he could get ALOT of money for, because even thought it would expose Halle for the crazy, controlling person she is, it would hurt his daughter because that is her mother.
I think you guys are giving him a waiver because you think he’s “hot”. Since none of you know either him or Halle personally, why would you know that Halle is a “crazy bitch”? It’s sad how jump on that band wagon.
A waiver because he’s handsome? I don’t think that at all. He could look like the ugliest troll in the world and I would still be sickened by the way Halle is trying to destroy her daughter’s father. Deprive her of the love of one of the most important people in her life. That is just beyond selfish.
As for how we know Halle? Even giving a miss on just HALF of what has been said about her crazy behavior when she is in a relationship there is more than enough evidence that she’s just as bad as she is being pictured. This man has done nothing but try to hang onto his daughter and she will tell any lie possible to sever that relationship.
And if you don’t think that couples in custody battles lie then you haven’t seen any. He hasn’t resorted to saying she’s a bad mother, as she had done to him. He only repeats what she does to HIM and tries to defend himself. Everyone screams at him to take the high road. Hum. That is no guarantee he’ll win in a custody battle. Too often the nice guy with the nice guy loses.
Don’t know jack about Sperm Donor Aubry but it goes without saying that Berry is Cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs. It can’t be a coincidence that every single one of her relationships falls apart and ends acrimoniously. She scares the shit out of me. For real.
WRITE THAT BOOK!!!! I promise to buy two cases and hand them out as presents!!! GO GABE!!!!!!
This situation disturbs me. Aubry is facing the loss of two very significant elements of his world – his child and his reputation. The outcome of this dirty battle will effect his entire life for the rest of his life. I don’t doubt he’s angry and defensive – how could anyone not be unless they’re emotionally dead? Although I do think he’s still managed to remain remarkably restrained in all this.
I stand by my earlier conclusion that Berry is bitter and vindictive over the break up (by several accounts he dumped her despite her PR campaign to the contrary), but I also wonder too if she’s not threatened by his close relationship with Nahla? Does it usurp her sense of power and entitlement as the mother to see him form such a close bond with their child? I realize she’s trying to make her fiancee into the new daddy here but that is different – the fiancee will have no actual rights to Nahla if they split. I feel something is seriously awry with Berry, regardless of whether or not Aubry is squeaky clean in all his actions. I hope he does write a tell all at some point. Or at least I hope he never gives in to her mission to eradicate him from his child’s life. That would be a great tragedy, not least of all for Nahla.
Why do you think he would benefit from anger management classes? I know several women who had their husbands arrested for domestic abuse and the men never touched them. One of the guys was being abused by the wife! Courts tend to beleive the wife if she says she has been hit or if the children have been hit. And most lawyers tell the men to plead out because it is almost impossible to win that kind of case. especially when it is a He said/She said. You think because the babysitter said he shoved her, it must be true? Who pays the babysitter’s salary? Anyone else besides Halle’s people seen him be violent? Or call her a n1gger? Or sexually abuse their daughter? You can only cry wolf but so many times. If she gets caught lying, she could lose her parental rights all together. I have seen that happen too!
I think Halle is bat sh. t crazy. I feel like Gabe is being portrayed as a bad dad because she’s rather not deal with him
When she took of from that hit and run I lost respect for her
Halle Berry wants to move to France with her boyfriend but I doubt that relationship will last long if she is really that control freak. Gabriel seems to be a good father if he didn’t care he would just be like any other absentee father and wouldn’t bother to fight for his daughter.
I just find it strange that when she’s with her mom she looks very unhappy but when she’s with her dad she’s smiling. Even when she’s with Oliver she’s smiling. I think it’s just her mom that she isn’t happy with.
@chi chi:
I don’t know him any more than you do. All any of us know is what we see in the media. All we can base our opinions on is the actions of the people we are reading about.
This situation is a good example of why people should not go on national t.v. and say “I want a baby and whomever I’m dating, I’m just gonna say “Wanna have a baby?”
First comes love,
Then comes marriage
Then comes baby
and the horse and carriage
Her plan backfired because she is now having to deal with a daddy that is fighting to be in the life of his child.
We need to do things in order, I’m just saying.
I don’t think anyone publicly knows what happened to these two, and it’s very sad because everyone deserves to have love in their lives without a lot of unnecessary “issues”. Hopefully they can get it together and try to get along for the sake of their little girl.
Not normal to hold a 3 year old all the time. Like GA does. Of course it looks like they are close in photos. Maybe they are. Just pointing that out. He probably caries her cause she is slow and lags behind. Ala the pic with Halle.
I mean, when we think we’re in a position to explain how the law works to its practitioners we’ve crossed a threshold. Now we’re psychoanalyzing a baby based on personal sympathies and claiming it to be as admissable as any legitimate proof. What’s that about?
‘We’re through the pumpkin patch here, people’ isn’t a great opening argument.
Hate who you want, but don’t let it turn your reasoning into mush or prompt you to form random vigilante sympathies rush into attack mode whenever it suits your fancy.
Whatever you may think of either of the parents, it’s pretty hollow to chastise others for printing things that could be devastating to the girl when she’s old enough to read them whilst doing that same thing. In what galaxy does that make sense? Are insults (legitimate or not) more noble coming from here than say, TMZ? They look identical on the superficial level.
I know I sound like a scold, but would it really make any difference to her if someone told her, ‘Well, it is called Celebitchy, so…’
