We’ve already heard various tabloid reports about Halle Berry and Olivier Martinez’s relationship straining under the weight of Halle and Gabriel Aubry’s no-longer-balls-out custody battle, not to mention reports of Halle wanting Olivier to be Nahla’s new “daddy”. I remarked during the height of the back and forth between Halle and Gabe that Olivier was probably taking a good, hard look at the woman he was in a relationship with, and examining how she was treating her last love. Of course, men are dumb when they’re screwing a beautiful (crazy) woman, so Olivier hasn’t packed his bags yet. Now In Touch Weekly reports that while Halle and Olivier are still together, they are having issues, and they’ve already gone into therapy.
Halle Berry’s custody battle with her ex Gabriel Aubry is affecting her romance with Olivier Martinez. According to a source, Halle and Olivier are struggling to stay together now that Halle’s in a nasty fight for custody of her daughter, Nahla.
“All of the drama hasn’t helped the relationship,” the source said.
Halle and Olivier were both at the Women In Film pre-oScar cocktail party in LA on February 25.
“He was sitting two couches away, but I never saw them touch or talk or even look at each other once,” a witness says.
According to another source, the couple has consulted a therapist, but a friend says, “They are just fine.”

Here’s the thing: while I’ll believe pretty much any and every crazy story about Halle at this point, Olivier is a blank slate. He comes across as kind of dumb, but he also comes across like he’s down with some hustling, meaning that he knows how to survive and thrive, to a certain extent. If you made me wager money on it, I’d say that Olivier and Halle are together for now, but that Olivier is seriously considering his exit strategies. I also think that Halle and Olivier are both such professionals that they wouldn’t “officially” breakup until they promoting that movie Dark Tide they did together – which doesn’t have a release date as of yet, but will hopefully come out by the end of the year (or whenever Olivier starts blinking out “SOS” when he’s being pap’d).

What’s in the well will always come out in the water, I guess.
I don’t buy that they are going to therapy…this guy is cut and run when the going gets tough/crazy.
Run Olivier Run!!!
Pycho bitch needs to keep her hands off of my man!!!!
I think Halle needs to change the couple therapy to INDIVIDUAL therepy if this story is true.
@Jemshoes too true. I might need to borrow that saying at some point.
@brin -I T A
I agree with Kaiser; Unless she goes batshit crazy on him, he’ll wait until the move comes out- neither of them have red hot careers right now. I’d love to know what his financial situation is….maybe he’s up for being Nahla’s sugar daddy. Also- it takes a legitamate therapist about ten minutes to assess if one person in therapy is just along for the ride. That part sounds more like Halle is planning her next, “Woe is me”, speech for Oprah’s show.
I don’t understand some people. Whatever happened to dating. You go out and feel each other out and continue to see how things go. The word relationship get’s thrown around to casually these days. Therapy, less than a year, that’s ‘dating’, or am I confused. It seems that everyone is trying to prove they are over someone by jumping to the next person. Is it wrong to be single and have great sex and not turn it into a ‘relationship’.
No amount of therapy can assist Olivier with Halle issues. That’s a whole other ballgame
@ Tiffany
That’s what i’ve been wondering for awhile! Celebrities meet, have sex, move in together, hop from coast to coast, whatever. What happened to dinner and dancing? To going home to your separate homes? Geez.
ITA agree with Kaiser and Marajalane. Especially when you realize he’s seen how psycho she’s been with Gabriel. If and when he leaves he’ll make sure that all ties are cut and he does’t have to deal with her at all.
Halle is beautiful but ever wonder why she can’t keep a man?
I’m betting she’s a full blown diva with major security issues.
Anyone ever heard of her having a friendship?
CRAZY!!!
Actually, I’m suprised he’s still with her given his track of record. If she was as mad as media portray her, he’d be rid off her already. I mean, he’s boned her already over and over for months now so there’s not much novelty left in that relationship. Would it really be unimaginable if these two stayed together for long years? Interesting idea. Let’s see what happens.
…or whenever Olivier starts blinking out “SOS” when he’s being pap’d.
LOLOLOLOLOL!
What a bunch of nonsense! The people who write this crap always gets ignorant people to believe them.
I agree with brin, I can’t see him doing therapy. He looks like the type if the relationship is going bad he will bail rather than salvage it. I don’t blame him in this circumstance cause Halle is a cuckoo bird.
He’s losing his hotness. Not sure if it’s her or (gasp!) aging, but he’s looking less vibrant.
Halle is insane, sure, but Olivier is no prize. I don’t want to waste a google on him, but I’m fairly certain he’s always had a jumpoff/ overlapping timelines for new relationships. Hard to forgive him for leaving a sick Kylie Minogue!
Martinez has lost his looks.
KAISER
It’s obvious that you HATE Halle Berry based on hearsay but I would send her ALL of the crap YOU’VE written about her so that she can SUE YOU for LIBEL.
You need to take a month OFF and NOT write about Halle Berry.
People are SICK and TIRED of the Berry bashing!
ENOUGH ALFARKINGREADY.ENOUGH!
I love that combover look she has in the 2nd picture I really hate her flame shaped hair these days – its driving me batty
I think only one of them needs therapy, the other is an opportunistic manwhore who seems perfectly happy with that and good for him, why would he need therapy?
@fred – isnt this whole site for celebrity bashing?? LOL, dude take an exlax, and breathe.
Give it a rest, Fred. Kaiser and CB can write about whatever subject they want. Don’t read it if you’re not interested.
Somehow Olivier doesn’t seem like the “let’s go to therepy and work out our issues” kinda fella. i think the story’s bull
Oh come the fuck off it @ Fred!
Halle is a nutjob who’s been steamrolling the men in her life for years- it can’t ALL be hearsay! I believe that she’s got severe control issues and it speaks volumes that she can’t maintain a romantic relationship let alone leave one without ill will towards the other. She has a track record of dragging men through the mud after her relationship with them is over.
Sure some of these tabloid stories embellish quite a bit but I still think the running theme is that Halle has issues when it comes to men and their prescence(sp?) in her life.
halle, jen, diaz a list of women that cant keep men….. all that money yet they will still end up alone.
Mmmmm . . . Fred? You don’t have to send anything to Halle. She can come here and read anything she wants. See how that works?
I was watching a show recently and the man said “if you need to go to therapy the relationship is over”. I agree somewhat, but if you just started dating, give it up!
@Marjalane and Kaiser: ITA with you both 100%. Once the movie promo is over, these two will be dunzo like so many other movie PR couples before them.
That’s what you get for drinking from the crazy cup, Olivier. RUN FAST.
