Late last week, the news came out that a court order requiring Gabriel Aubry to have supervised visitation with his daughter Nahla was dropped. The the investigation by Child and Family Services into a neglect claim against Aubry has also been closed. That means that Halle Berry’s attempts to block Aubry’s access to their daughter have been thwarted, at least temporarily. (I’ll be honest, I didn’t cover this story because it came out somewhat late on a Friday and I wanted to clock out for the day.) Radar also reported that Aubry was planning to fight back against Halle and would sue her if she kept dragging him to court. Here’s their insider quote on this. They also include the detail we already heard that Aubry would write a tell-all about Halle if she kept trying to limit his contact with their daughter:
“If he gets dragged in again over baseless claims, that are found to be unsubstantiated and lacking evidence, he will sue her,” a source close to the situation tells RadarOnline.com. “Gabe has had enough and is extremely frustrated with Halle. All of the proceedings in their custody case are sealed but if he were to file a lawsuit against her it would be made public. Gabe has had to jump through hoops because of Halle’s accusations when he takes care of Nahla, and NONE of it has been found to have any merit.”
As RadarOnline.com previously reported, Gabriel is also considering writing a tell-all book about his tumultuous relationship with Halle.
[From Radar]
Well now Radar has a follow up that Aubry believes Halle is scheming to have her fiance, French actor Oliver Martinez, adopt Nahla and cut her out of his life entirely. This seems to be the case, considering that Halle has been petitioning the court to approve a request to move to France:
“Gabriel fears that Halle’s ultimate plan is to get him out of his daughter’s life, permanently,” an insider tells RadarOnline.com. “He believes the plan is for Halle to move to France with Nahla and then have Olivier adopt her as his own. She wants a ‘fresh start’ apparently.
“It all makes sense now, the allegations of mistreatment and abuse, the slurs against Gabe in the press, the fight to strip him of custody, he believes it’s all part of a bigger plan to make him appear like an unfit father and get rid of him for good.
“It’s not happening though. Gabe will fight tooth and nail to retain custody of Nahla. He loves that little girl and is determined to always be a part of her life and always be her father.
“Just because Halle is through with him doesn’t mean she can shut him out of her daughter’s life too. Gabe may not have Halle’s money or power but he will not just lie down and take it.”
As RadarOnline.com previously reported, Aubry feels fully vindicated after the abuse allegations that were made against him were dismissed, and has made it known that if he is hauled into court again over unfounded claims, he will sue Berry.
And, that’s just the start.
“It’s been pretty nasty so far, but it’s going to get a LOT nastier!” The source tells RadarOnline.com. “Gabriel is ready to fight and if Halle wants to fight dirty then as far as he is concerned she can bring it on. He will match her punch for punch, slur for slur. His relationship with his daughter is at stake and he will do ANYTHING to protect that.”
[From Radar Online]
I see the point so many of you have been making, that Aubry is just responding to Berry’s strongarm tactics, and that he’s doing it out of love for his daughter. It looks like his attempts to fight for Nahla have been successful, for now. There’s also news that the custody judge won’t issue a ruling on Berry’s request to move to France for at least 6-9 months. Given Halle’s track record with men, her situation may have changed by then. I doubt she’ll ever realize the terrible effect her actions may have on her daughter in the long run.

Why is she making this sperm donor’s life a living nightmare?
I say that cos I never felt she wanted nothing more from him than a baby, she got it, and now its all out war.
If he’s a bad guy you deal with it don’t make a child pay for your stupidity and vice versa. Can’t we all just get along with our baby mama’s and baby daddy’s in 2012 y’all! 😉
She should’ve just used a sperm donor or been smart about it like January Jones and kept her mouth shut…you know she’ll never be in and out of court worrying about this mess.
co-signed
Don’t get it. How is he just a sperm donor? Weren’t Halle and he together for five years?
it’s the worst Hollywood break-up since a long time (even Charlie Sheen/Denise Richards battle was less nasty)
ITA. But I don’t think this is as bad as the epic battle between Kim B. and Alec Baldwin though. It could be if she keeps this up though.
the more i hear, the more Halle Berry sounds like a proper bitch to me. women like that don’t deserve to have kids. sorry but sometimes mothers can be so f-ing concentrated on revenge to actually lose the real point of the matter. i’ll never ever spend a penny going to watch one of her films or anything she’ll be involved with.
When does the family court judge begin to contemplate Gabriel as primary custody parent? Then SHE can fly back and forth from France to visit her daughter.
Halle is doing what she feels is best for herself and not what is in Nahla’s best interest: a relationship with her Dad.
Oh co-sign this!
It is looking more and more like Halle is acting like a self-centered shrew, looking out for her ultimate goal, not nearly close enough to the well-being of her child.
There was a picture in TMZ where Nahla and Halle are riding a wheeler, and Nahla was licking the iron-safety bar without Halle ever noticing: Wouldn’t that be considered child endangerment?
One tit for tat if you please!
There is also a BI that is supposedly about Olivier already cheating on Halle with two women, regularly. Either they have an open relationship, or shit is about to hit the fan. ‘Cause when Halle gets mad, Halle gets violent… And then blacks out and doesn’t remember hitting anything your Honor!
This is the first time a woman is not getting any sympathy from me. Simply put, she gives a woman, working hard for her independence and getting her children away from an abusive prick, a bad name. She is the worst example of spiteful and odious b-tch.
Same here. Half the time I comment on a Berry-Aubry story, I can’t believe I feel this much disgust for a woman, and a mother to boot! It’s sickening but Berry doesn’t deserve better. She’s going too far with this.
Team Nahla
+1
Yo, plus another.
Halle’s an idiot. All this stuff she’s done to cut G.A. out of her daughters life just makes her look like a class A bitch, and I pretty much don’t ever want to see her in anything ever again. I have no sympathy for her and I kind of hope the Frenchman ditches her ass too.
If the Frenchman has half a brain, he’s watching all this and thinking “this could be my future” if he adopts Nahla.
A. The Frenchman only has half a brain.
B. He can’t adopt Nahla who already has a father.
I don’t get Halle at all. As far as I know she doesn’t have a relationship with her father, you would think she would want to work things out with Gabriel for Nahla’s sake.
Yes!! I just said the same thing the other day. Eventually, this little girl will be able to read all about this. So sad.
Which will only matter if she hasn’t been completely brainwashed by her mother. Unfortunately, in cases of alienation of affection coupled with spurious and completely disproved allegations of abuse, the child is told the same lies repeatedly so that s/he truly believes they recall the abuse and do not believe anything other than that. I find it absolutely horrifying that the judicial system would allow this sort of behavior to go on for such a long period of time.
My guess is she thinks that she didn’t have a relationship with her dad and she turned out OK, so Nahla will too.
my theory is that she’s projecting the anger and hurt she feels/felt towards her dad on Gabriel. She’s lost her mind.
“I don’t get Halle at all. As far as I know she doesn’t have a relationship with her father, you would think she would want to work things out with Gabriel for Nahla’s sake.”
QFT. This, so this.
This is so sad and uncalled for. I swear I will never ever support Halle Biotch again.
I think Aubry is jealous of Halle of Olivier and it makes him crazy to think of her daughter bonding with another man. Its not easy to lose your meal ticket and maybe your daughter.
I still maintain he is not what you think he is. Halle is not known as a big bitch and is not as crazy as everyone seems to believe. She has poor taste in men which includes GA. He loves his child, true, but he is no innocent lamb.
Thank you!. The hatred for HB on this site is really too much. She certainly does have men issues; she’s not alone there. How many of us don’t? Just because GA is good-looking, he gets a pass on this site. Nobody knows exactly what went on between these two. We only know they now hate each other with a passion and can’t seem to put their child first. Not exactly new in divorce proceedings.
ETA. I don’t think she will marry OM. There are far too many blind items about him at the moment. He is not the man for any woman who wants a serious relationship.
You should speak factually; your emotionally driven dialogue undermines your credibility.
NOONE on this post (we have all observed Halle’s destructive, self-centered and unconscionable behavior), is supportive of Gabriel Aubry because he is “good-looking”. You “don’t think she will marry OM”; how do you know? And if “he is not the man for any woman who wants a serious relationship” what does this say about Halle?
They are engaged to be married.
interestingly, the only positive comments most people have for Berry are related to her looks. The negative comments relate to behavior/personality issues.
TWICE in the past – not once – Halle has been involved in a hit-and-run with her car. TWICE she has hit people and left them there while she drove off. To me, that is not a good person. She eventually settled both.
As for this custody fight, every bad thing I hear is initiated by HER.
I agree Jen. Just going by facts along – all the court drama has been initiated by Halle…its financially and emotionally devastating – and I am sure thats her point. No one is perfect..its not because he is good looking…I never even see that referenced. Are you sure you don’t work for Team Halle?
Don’t forget that she was going to adopt Eric Benet’s daughter, and yet EB said that Halle completely cut off contact after they split, which is kinda harsh for a teenage girl who had already lost her mom. To a car accident.
Contrast that with Sandra Bullock and Jesse James’ kids.
@tapioca I had no idea! That makes my heart hurt.
@tapioca: YOu might not be correct about Bullock/James. Last I read, Sunny told her mom she hadn’t seen Sandra since the divorce.
Let me get this straight. Gabriel deserves to lose his child because Halle has moved on with another man & because she has more money than him. Is that what you’re saying? That Gabriel loses all rights to remain in his child’s life because he “just jellus”. Are you kidding me?
This has nothing to do with dislike of Halle. This has to do with a father’s right to be in his child’s life, especially when he isn’t a danger to her & because he wants to be in his child’s life. I could see if this was a situation like Jude Law where he wants nothing to do with his youngest daughter, but it isn’t.
I really like what you had to say, and would add to it this:
This is ALSO about a daughter’s right to know and love her father. It’s about her getting to go to daddy/daughter dances. It’s about him teaching her how to do stuff that he does differently than mom. It’s about ice cream BEFORE dinner that no one else knows about. It’s about Nahla having that one dude who is solidly in her corner (and preferably around the corner) no matter how much she screws up. It’s about having someone to cry to who will promise she’ll be his princess forever. It’s about being able to call her daddy to come get her when she gets in over her head and goes to a party with older kids. It’s about having the perfect love a man at least once in a girl’s life.
Shit, Halle. Have some freaking foresight.
@Embee
Beautiful post and so very true…
Except that Halle HAS always been known to be a big bitch. It’s a very well documented fact. Where on earth did you get the idea that she is not?
I’m thinking/guessing that that person is either; on the Berry PR team, just trolling OR is very misinformed.
Jm2c.
It’s textbook. If Halle is anything like my ex, she is supplementing her continuous legal harassment with non-stop badmouthing of Aubrey to the child. “You have a bad daddy (or mommy in my case), but when I marry ____, he’ll (she’ll) be the best new daddy (mommy) ever. And you’ll have more toys and trips than ever!” Swear to God this was a typical illustration. It’s horrific being in the whirlwind of a narcissistic angry ex, and a child is just a possession, and a convenient weapon. Poor, poor Nahla.
I think it’s getting recognized in the courts and/or medicine (not totally sure) as parental alienation. Happens frequently, apparently.
Happens a lot. SO much. And it sucks. I’ve done work as a court appointed psychologist in custody cases and the damage it does to children is really terrible.
‘I doubt she’ll ever realize the terrible effect her actions may have on her daughter in the long run’
ITA with this statement she seems to be a delusional bully. I think when Nahla gets older and becomes defiant towards Halle she’ll do what she’s done to the men in her life and start demonizing her. With someone like Halle she’ll never admit when she’s wrong. SAD.
Oh and I don’t think Gabriel is a prince but he’s the lesser of two evils and does seem to really be a caring father.
min: I think you’re right. Wait until Nahla starts asking Halle questions and refusing to take Halle’s point of view. If they have military boarding schools for girls she’ll be in one.
I have a theory, I believe that Halle’s cray cray came out while Gabriel and her were together and he cut the strings on the relationship. This led to her becoming a vindictive, more than usual crazy, c-nty wunty. I think all of this side show is an attempt to hurt Gabriel. Granted neither of them have behaved too well during this whole debacle however, I think Gabriel honestly just wants to be with his daughter. I find this rather ironic that in this day and age when the majority of moms cannot get their kids dads involved in their lives for shit, that this woman is doing everything she can to stop a dad that truly cares for his daughter and wants to be with her. On a site note, I feel bad for Nahla but also for Olivier. I am sure this poor guy just wants some peace and quiet.
I agree. Isn’t he the one who left? Bet that didn’t sit well with Halle since she’s always been the one to break off the relationship. Either way, no matter what happens and as crazy as it seems, I hope this public battle is because they both love this little girl so much and not because of revenge.
Good to hear he is fighting back, no one deserves to be taken out of their child’s life if they want to be part of it. Perhaps the judge is also a lover of celebrity gossip and thinks that this Olivier being Halle’s night in shining armor is short lived too. Time will tell. But I am starting to get concerned that she has had that cast on for so long. I know she is diabetic so she does not heal well, but this seems excessive, I hope her health is OK. And if not i wonder how that will factor into the well being of Nahla and her custody battle.
I’m really not surprised by any of this. He is certainly taking it a lot better then I would if I was dragged through all of this. I would do anything for the sake of my children.
I don’t understand how in any way, shape, or form, Olivier could adopt Nahla. Courts would have to find Gabriel an unfit parent to the point of terminating his parental rights (which isn’t going to happen) or he would have to voluntarily terminate his rights (again, it’s not going to happen). So I call BS on this side of the situation!
I agree, but I have been aghast with what HB has gotten away with so far. LA County isn’t like the rest of the country (or the world, for that matter).
Friend of mine sees his child for 6 hours every other Saturday, and it’s now scaling up to 6 hours every other Sunday as well. It’s taken 2 years to prove the mother is a lying hobag when alleging abuse, and his kid loves and trusts him – there’s no question but that the parent causing the issues is the mother, but the courts also hold that her happiness and sanity are essential to the child so her wishes and anxieties must be managed and worked with.
Sometimes the mother turns up for visitation and refuses to hand the kid over to the third party, saying the kid is not ready and unhappy, and then just drives away. She did that three times running lately, because she didn’t want him to see their child over the weekend of the child’s birthday. And the court does nothing except try to coax the mother along. It’s attachment theory driving the process; the mother denies all contact with a toddler, so after 6 months the bond with the father is hugely diluted, and that with the mother is deemed so strong anything that causes her stress will harm the child. If the father seeing much of the child does that, then oh dear, better cut back on the contact levels. So basically the system rewards women who behave like Berry. Not in theory (if cases were heard weeks after the split rather than months the attachment wouldn’t be so onesided) but in reality. If a mother in this country makes serious allegations then a father could well end up not seeing his child alone for a year. Interim contact can be 2 hours a fortnight supervised in a contact centre. And to get to that point you need the mother to agree, or an interim hearing. The latter can take 5 months. Oh, and you generally need to be able to show a court that you tried mediation and informal resolution first too, which can take another few months.
If a mother refuses to allow any contact at all in breach of court orders then she will eventually lose residence (custody) but as long as she is just (!) hostile, difficult and obstructive, but basically allows most of the contact ordered, she’ll be pandered to.
I’m a woman and a feminist, but the law on child residence in this country is disgraceful in practice, if not theory. Frankly, CA is looking pretty damn good in comparison.
Yes but she’s already set him up for abuse charges and is planning on leaving the country. I know nothing about French custody laws but if she can get Nahla out of the country she can start a whole other legal battle in a different country with a different set of rules. I think this is why she’s marrying Olivier and turning a blind eye to his roving ways for now.
I wish halle would either give up on the marriage idea or marry up. Marry someone who won’t request financial support in anyway. Stop legally binding these people to., dummy. Anyway let that man see his child…should ve gone to a sperm bank if u didn’t want to coparent.

dont put it past Berry to try to pile on all sorts of new claims of abuse after coaching her daughter (I guess she’ll have to imply sexual abuse soon) – that will be the step she takes to try to terminate his parental rights
…I don’t think Gabriel’s far off with this one.
Time to get the dirt on Olivier! I bet it’s out there!
That was EXACTLY my thought.
Team Gab. Duh hes not perfect, but he loves and cares for his child. She needs to stop.
Look at those pics-little Nahla loves her daddy!
I’m Team Nahla BOTH parents need to stop airing their dirty laundry. Gabriel seems saner but that really isn’t saying much.
I’d normally NEVER say this but… I’m actually beginning to think Nahla would be better off without her crazy Mommy. Nahla is only 3 and look at all the insanity Berry has already created in her daughter’s life?? I have a feeling that that little girl is going to grow up hating her hateful Mommy.
Oops sorry mln76… this was supposed to be a stand-alone comment, not sure how it became a reply to your comment!
Someone should tell Halle to grow up, instead of being a spoiled bitch. The guy loves his daughter, the allegations have been disproved. Let him see his child and learn to be an adult about it!
I think the only person that Ms. Berry loves is Ms. Berry.
What is best for the daughter be damned when Ms. Berry wants revenge.
Agree 1000%!!
Damn, he’s hot
What amazes me from USA is that not only can you change your name to whatever occurs to you but that a child with a recognized father can be adopted by someone else .
For example Heidi’s Klum daughter Leni, she has a biological father no matter what relationship her mother had with him nevertheless Seal adopted her.
Hope for Gabriel and Nahla that courts forbid this, it wouldn’t be appropriate.
What if Martinez adopted her and he and Halle break up , which is most likely in a future having both some bad relationship backgrounds.
Im Argentine and family is important as well as identity and knowing where you come from.
In Heidi Klum’s case the father wanted nothing to do with Leni and gave up his rights THAT is how Seal adopted her.
Halle is trying to set Gabriel up as being abusive (IMO) because that is just about her only way to get full custody of Nahla. I don’t think it will happen even with all of her money because as long as a parent shows they want to do their best to be in their child’s life the court usually does the most they can to allow visitation.
in the US you can not adopt a child unless parental rights have been terminated. In the case of Leni, her biological father did terminate his parental rights and wanted nothing to do with her – that’s why Seal was able to legally adopt her
I am not familiar with adoption laws but I didn’t think that a child with a living biological parent could be adopted by someone else until the biological parent gave up his/her parental rights.
Or had his parental rights terminated by a court order, which the court would only do if he was proven to be a neglectful and/or abusive parent. It doesn’t seem as if either applies in this situation.
Halle is a stone bitch.
Unless it is Malawi and the adoptive parent is Madonna.
Touché!
They cant. Unless Gabriel signed off which is not going to happen or the court did and that would only be in case of extremely PROVEN abuse/neglect over a long period of time (years). Oliver would never be granted adoption of Nahla by any court.
I was adopted by my stepdad when I was 4 and at the time my biological father was still alive and wanted nothing to do with my mother or me. So the adoption was allowed to go through. Mind you, this was done back in 1989. I don’t know if laws have changed about doing this to prevent situations like this.
LeeLoo – even in the 80’s your father would have to have agreed to terminate his parental rights or the courts would have had to terminate them for cause. If your adoption went through, your biological father’s parental rights wer terminated prior to the adoption petition being accepted by the court
It’s just a horrible thing to do. Trying to keep the daughter apart from her father. Halle is such a self centered psycho beach. Unless if you had sex with yourself to produce Nahla then she’s all yours!
Like it has been stated time and time again about Halle Berry, she wants what she wants when she wants it and does not care who she hurts to get it. Before with her other two husbands that she ran through the shredder it didn’t matter because she did not have a child that she could damage so much. Yes I know she claimed to love Eric’s daughter like she was her own but had no problem skipping out on her, so that doesn’t count. The great thing about Gabe is he really is a good dad, something that Halle can’t stand apparently and he will not allow his daughter to be taken from him. I applaud that. But Halle isn’t thinking about Nahla she is thinking about Halle and she is going to play the victim as she always has, because it has always worked for her. But I don’t think it will or I hope any way that it simply will not work this time. That little girl needs her dad just as much as she needs her mom and it’s nice that Oliver loves her but he can’t replace Gabe. If I were Gabe I would be prepared to get down and dirty to fight her because she is already rolling in the mud.
The courts will never stripped Gabriel of his parental rights. Therefore, Olivier will never be able to adopt Nahla. Halle & Olivier are off their F-ing rockers if they think they can legally steal a man’s child from him.
I can’t EVEN with this narcassistic crazy vindictive b-to-the-Iotch! I would have given anything to have my father fight my mother with everything he has to have the right to see his daughter. My heart hurts for GA. If he’s reading this-hang tough and don’t give up! At this point, Halle deserves everything she gets and add another 200%.
Dear Ms. Halle Berry:
Please choose another pair of shorts. Yes, you have great legs but considering how damn often you wear your denim cutoff Daisy Dukes, it must be time for them to walk to the wash all by their onesies. And are you milking the broken foot thing? Yes, you have diabetes but really? If it’s on that long maybe you need to worry about your health instead of focusing on your hate.
What bothers me is that no one is mentioning all of the interviews she did shortly after her breakup with Gabriel, where she said nothing but great things about him as a person and as a father.
There was one she did when she covered a major fashion magazine. Was it Vogue? She was on the cover to advocate her charity, or something?
She was all roses and teddy bears in that article, when it came to discussing her breakup and her relationship. Gabe is a great man, he’s a great father, she said. There was nothing that happened, nothing that caused the breakup, just two people who grew apart, she said. But, this will never get in the way of our parenting our daughter, she said. Blah blah blah.
I’m team Gabe. He has no choice but to start responding to stuff in the press. Family courts are dirty business, and she’s spread nastiness about him throughout the press and the legal system.
He needs to continue to work. As a model, he must maintain a good image, and good name association in order to get the good-paying jobs. I am sure that her smearing campaign has caused him to lose quite a bit of employment opportunities. And of course, he needs to continue making money to pay for the legal battle that Halle instigated against him.
Shame on her.
it was Vogue Sept 2010.
She said that nothing bad happened to break them up, they simply grew apart. She then went on to say that She was so glad she chose him because he was a great father and nothing would stand in the way of the co-parenting situation.
several months later via TMZ and ‘sources’…….he is a racist, possibly abusive danger to his child!!!!
Adoptions by a non blood parent, when the blood parent is in the picture, are impossible unless the blood parent signs off on it and Gabriel isnt going to do this. Oliver will never be able to even come close to adopting Nahla.
I really feel bad for this guy. He only wants to be able to spend time with his little girl. I don’t understand how any woman would want to interfere with her daughter’s relationship with her biological father. He is not a deadbeat dad. He appears to be sincere about wanting to be very active in his daughter’s life and seems to be handling all these obstacles that Halle and her lawyers throw his way better than most would. Halle needs to think more about her daughter’s well being and less about seeking revenge on her ex.
The sad thing about this is that Nahla is at an age where she can be easily influenced. I would be surprised if Halle is starting to brainwash Nahla into believing Olivier is her father. If she can’t push Gabriel out of Nahla’s life in court she can use Nahla to push Gabriel out of her life.
I have to say this and it sucks but I think there needs to be a permanent solution to this problem. The sad thing is that I think this permanent solution is to give Halle what she wants. I’m more concerned about the long term trauma this whole situation can have on Nahla. I don’t like it and I do think it’s wrong but the constant fighting is only going to make the situation worse for Nahla. Gabriel’s intentions are good and pure and Halle has proven to be an evil bitch but should Nahla have to suffer any more from it? As painful as it ia for me to say it now, I think Gabriel just needs to give the stupid bitch what she wants to protect Nahla from more trauma. Walking away is the best way be can protect Nahla and it sucks it has to be that way.
Trust me when I tell you that NOTHING is more damaging than growing up thinking your dad gave up on you and didn’t fight to have you in his life. I speak from experience. You’re saying it would be better for Nallah if she didn’t have her father in her life because the custody fight is getting nasty-and that is a tragedy for both Nallah and Gabriel. No way, no how should he give up-he is her father and seems to be the only parent who is actually wanting what’s best for the girl.
It is a tragedy, no doubt about that. But the thing is Halle is only going to make it worse. It is a catch 22. This is never going to end. If he fights it this will go on into her teen years. If he leaves I think at Nahla’s age it will be less damaging because she is still rather resilent at this age. Halle isn’t going to stop and while the logical argument would be give Gabriel full custody there is no proof Halle is unfit parent. In cases like these the courts normally let the mother win. It’s f***ed up and I think it’s wrong but you have to ask yourself, is it better that she have some semblance of a peaceful homelife with a bitch mother or is it better that she have a parent fight for her. Halle is probably already doing everything she can to turn Nahla against Gabriel. It’s already been rumored she would stoop so low. I think it will be easier for Nahla in the long run to have Gabriel walk away. But I WANT people to disagree with me because I think it’s wrong it has to be that way.
Leeloo, I know you’re thinking that this will end up that way anyway but we should keep rooting for Gabriel. Think about it. In 6 months, a year, she’s gonna break up with her new piece and Nahla’s just gonna have to go through this again. So no matter what, Nahla’s not going to have a happy peaceful life with Mom so Gabriel shouldn’t give up.
Really, I’m kinda hoping Halle Cray-Cray has a huge blow-out with Oliver, so the courts see how out of control she is and Gabriel ends up with at least joint custody.
GO TEAM NAHLA!
No win-win situation, but in my country there is a saying that states that the pushies are/act brave until the coward pushover wants to, until he or she decides to put an end to it.
If Gabriel is a good father, and is pushed out of his daughter’s life, the brainwashing won’t stop there. Halle will Make sure the girl thinks ill of him.
If he fights, well it will be bad but she can make her own mind later, but she will know she was not rejected or abandoned. He is already in disadvantage, having less money and all that. Many children and teens nowadays like “things”, and mommy is the one who can gether more stuff. Also, many childre of divorced parents learn early to manipulate the parents. I really wish this cute girl has all the love and good home education she will need. Really money is not everything.
OM and HB; that is a PR relationship.
they will keep it going until after their movie comes out [yes, these PR stunts last years, now adays…see Gosling and Mendes].
I really don’t care how often they are ‘seen’ together-actors have flexible schedules, and no problem hanging out in thailand or france or wherever, for weeks on end. It’s not a bad gig, you know?
HB may also be using the PR hookup for her own personal needs, as well-ie, custody issue.
There are usually two sides to every story. I will just say, based on body language, the little girl always looks happy and more carefree in the pics with her dad. And more connected with him, than in the pics with H alle.
And, there have been an awful lot of photos with both of them, lately. Enough to notice the contrast.
Who knows what goes on in their private lives-but based on the PR photos, she and her dad certainly are connected and deserving of a relationship!
Are you talking about Halle and Olivier’s movie together?
… Because that one got out directly to DVD last week. Last Tuesday, a week ago, to be exact.
So the PR stunt, could not really PR. Because there were no red carpets, not even DVD promotions. Just from leaked poster, to directly on DVD.
Or I misunderstood your comment and it wasn’t about those 2 people?
wait charlize t heron adopted a baby!?! just saw the popsugar link.
Halle, your a b-rhymes-with-witch.
There is something really wrong with that woman.
GA walking away because it would be to the benefit of Nahla is absolutely crazy. Do we really want another Halle in this world? If he walked away just to end the fight because Ms. Berry can’t share then she would have 18 or so years to mold her daughter in her image and likeness. I have a strong feeling that her mother is exactly this way and I am sure Nahla is learning the same behavior and having her loving father in her life is the only chance this girl has of turning out a decent human being.
With her money and resources, if Gabriel was really doing and saying these things she would have hired a private detective to tape this stuff or plant a microphone on the nanny when picking up Nahla, she’s got nothing on him so she’s decided to go with slandering his image. Halle can only live in the present which is Oliver, and she wants to fly around the world without answering to anyone which is a little hard to do when you share a child, I really feel she has not even put Nahla’s well-being into thought. Do you notice that she is rarely seen out with other people besides Oliver, her mom or a nanny/assistant, I’m starting to wonder how much her mother messed her up. If she gets full custody, how much time will she really spend with Nahla comapred to the nanny spending time with her, I’m betting the nanny would win. I’m all for Nahla having an actual happy childhood with both her parents. As for the whole adoption thing, Oliver should be ashamed of himself to be even involved in any of this, it’s great that he cares for her, but he should know his boundaries. All I have to say is she must be a hell cat in the sack for him to be marrying her.
Halle is disliked because she’s done a lot of horrendous things like hit and run accidents that she’s blamed on others, adopting (or so she says) a child and then turning her back on the child when the marriage broke up (in addition to insulting the child’s father in the press) and insulting and tearing down- publicly- every man she’s ever been with. She’s now scheming to get rid of Nahla’s father because she hates him. Too bad; that’s the child’s father and all she has to do is avoid him. No one sticks up for Gabriel because he’s pretty; people see a pattern and horrendous behavior and know who’s right. She always complimented him as a partner and father and suddenly he’s an abusive racist? She is beautiful and a good actress, but she has some kind of personality disorder.
I believe that the Halle/Olivier relationship was a set-up from day 1. I think that I read somewhere that Halle hand picked Olivier to be her leading man in the movie that they just made. I also read somewhere that Olivier hadn’t been in a movie (worked) in about 5 yrs. That would certainly make him fall for Halle, the fact that she gave him work, when he had none, it seems. People have made remarks that Gabe should work, well it sounds like he has worked a heck of a lot more that Olivier, although he might not make as much money. He’s a model, not a movie star. I would not be suprised if Halle just poured her lies out to Oliver, he felt sorry for her and agreed to help her fight for her child. Halle may have even paid him to do this. I would not be suprised. I also would not be suprised if the marry is a marriage of convenience, for the sole purpose of her trying to take the child totally away from her father, as the father believes. Isn’t it ironic how Oliver is now going into the restaurant business, just as Gabriel did when he was with Halle. I wonder if she financed that, as well.
When I looked at the engagement ring, and saw that it was emerald, rather than a totally diamond ring, my opinion right then, was this whole thing is an arranged situation. Diamonds are forever….and they both know what they are doing, just out to destroy a good man. Halle seems play very dirty, and there’s no stopping her, if she can’t have her way.
I believe Gabriel hit it right on the head when he said that Halle was just trying to get back at him. If that’s true, it sounds like something a scorned woman does, because she was dumped.
I don’t want to see Gabriel write a book about crazy Halle, but I say, “do what you have to do, to fight for your daughter.” If you just have to write the book, for financial reasons, then go ahead and put it out there. I understand, and will be the first one in line to buy it!
When you are defending yourself with someone who plays dirty, then sometimes you just have to drop down to their level, to keep from getting run over! And you know, Halle is good for running over people!
100% Team Gabriel!
public opinion vs. halle berry and her craziness!
Nahla looks like she’s doing community service when she’s with her mother but when she’s with her dad, she looks happy and contented. Of course it could be just these photos.
Martinez will cheat, and he has a good opportunity to do so now that he has that restaurant in Miami Beach.
Man, I feel sorry for Nahla, having to grow up with this witch for a mother. She has her revolving door of men that she’ll bring into Nahla’s life, and each will probably be called Uncle so-and-so while Gabriel will be frozen out. I can see it now. Years later we’ll hear how Nahla resents her mother for ruining her relationship with her father. I hope I’m wrong, but Halle seems so conniving.
