Earlier this year, the tabloids (mostly Star/Radar and the NYDN) kept claiming that Halle Berry and Olivier Martinez were already on the rocks, less than a year after they got hitched in France and just months after they welcomed their son, Maceo. The rumors percolated for a while, but Halle’s people half-heartedly shut them down. Then, a month ago, Halle and Olivier made a big show at the premiere event for her CBS show Extant. Olivier wore a creepy mustache and Halle looked tired, but their body language seemed comfortable enough to put many of the rumors to rest. Well, Round 2 is here. Star says Halle and Olivier have been living separately and Olivier doesn’t even care that he’s gained weight. Damn, bro.
Halle Berry & Olivier Martinez seem to be on the fast track to splitsville. Star can reveal that the couple, both 48, who are parents of son Maceo, 10 months, have been living separately for months.
“They don’t talk to each other much,” dishes a source, “and when they do, it’s only about their son.”
Friends also say that Olivier’s recent weight gain is a bad sign.
“He’s let himself go a bit,” says the pal. “She works hard to stay beautiful, but his blatant lack of interest speaks volumes about his feelings for her.”
[From Star Magazine, print edition]
I’ll buy that they’re living separately, but I’ve always thought their relationship was much more combustible and dramatic than the “happy couple at peace together” image Halle wanted to push. To be fair, I think Halle only does relationships that are full of drama and nonsense. And she might have found her equal in Olivier. But here’s what I don’t buy: that he’s gained weight?! And that somehow his weight gain (??) is a signal that he and Halle are done…?

I have a feeling Halle is no picnic to live with and has a hard time maintaining relationships.
And somewhere on the other side of town, Gabe is saying “told ya so.”
Haha +1
I still remember that time they had a fight in public, so ridiculous.
Funny that you talk about it like it’s way in the past. For me it’s like it happened yesterday!
lol! So true.
Somewhere Gabby is waiting on his check. Why he gets to sit on his butt and the women around here cut him tons of slack is beyond me.
wonder how long before she starts claiming physical and mental abuse .Her usual claims
It’s sad because children are involved, but seriously – it’s just a matter of time. Plus Olivier is not such a nice guy like Gabriel. If she fights, he will probably fight back. I mean metaphorically, but with these two you never know I guess! 😉
Totally! This Beeotch is cray to the 10th power. First time I bought it, second time I questioned it, third time I didn’t believe it, and now I just think she’s absolutely nuts. She may have bad taste in men, but no, they are not all abusers, considering their track records. She needs help. This is going to end up War of the Roses style.
@Cali,
What cray things has she done? Please elaborate. It seems like one person said she’s crazy and everyone just nodded.
@Beckyr
Do you really, really, really, really, really!!!!!!!!! Believe this trash?
What if next week it turns out they are still together, would that make you Think? or be disappointed that Halle betrayed you and forced a magazine/bible to lie to you?
I thought, generally speaking, men gained weight often after a marriage. More of a ‘comfort’ thing than a death knell.
However, with these two, I doubt it’s sunshine and lollipops. Halle is pretty much perfect physically, but she be cray cray, and Olivier, well… Eurgh.
The only thing I took away from this story is that Olivier is being shaded for gaining weight…which I find hilarious yet don’t believe it’s true. So Olivier lost his hotness because He gained weight? Noo… He lost it after hooking up with Halle
He was never hot to begin with. Look at his sallow complexion and arrogant attitude. Sorry, he is not very handsome. Not ugly, but certainly no one to swoon over. Halle can keep him.
She is a crazy bitch and he is a firstclass douche they were perfect together, if they split I will be very sad.
He lost his hotness due to not aging well.
Well he’s 48 and he’s not addicted to fillers. He’s just aging naturally. You can’t be that guy in Unfaithful forever. But then you can argue that Diane Lane is still hot, hot, hot.
He looks like he’s doing more than average aging. I wonder if he’s drinking. His skin doesn’t look good.
Maybe it’s stress.
He used to be beautiful. He looks like a totally different person now.
He was CRAZY hot in Unfaithful!! That movie still haunts me. The hotness combined with the tragic sequence of events is burned into my brain. It’s kind of like a children’s book on morals, but for adults on both the highs and lows of cheating!! Gah!!!!!
Yep. He looks awful these days.
I think a lot of is “ugliness” is that scruffy beard and moustache. A lot of men, my own partner included, when they get to a certain age and their scruff starts to become more white than grey it doesnt look good. All you can see is this stuff on their face and I wish that they would shave the damned thing off, just makes their face look dirty.
As for Halle, she’s a crackpot. Cant say anything more than that.
Le sigh, he used to be sooooo damn hot. See “Horseman on the Roof”
Oh, well, if he gained a few pounds and doesn’t care, no wonder their vows to love and honor one another through sickness and health, good times and bad, until death doth part them no longer apply. I mean weight gain cancels that out entirely, right? No need to say more. Not that we live in a shallow world or anything.
You reminded me of my personal National Anthem: Alanis Morissette’s “Hands Clean” in which she sings: “I might want to marry you one day, if you watch your weight and you keep your firm body.”
I have those words tattooed on my lower back to remind me of exactly what kind of things I want out of marriage.
So in essence I agree with your words 100%
Not that I’m shallow and have the emotional depth of a puddle of water or anything like that. I’m actually quite generous, like Ashton “I do not put Mila Kunis down or judge her because she gained weight.” Kutcher. I too will forgive Olivier (for the grace period of 3 weeks)
Aren’t Ashton and I so powerfully evolved as humans?
(This is complete sarcasm)
LOL. Man, you are so evolved, you’re just beyond human! I really admire Ashton for not judging a pregnant woman for gaining weight. That’s just so understanding.
Thanks for the laugh!
They were photographed together in yesterday’s Daily Fail. They looked pretty happy.
I saw those pictures too. They did look pretty happy. She was even hanging on to his arm. I don’t know why they’d make such a public display if they were really broken up.
If every relationship you’re in ends in high drama, Halle, it isn’t them. It’s you.
Yep…it’s her.
Yeah, its her. A man who doesn’t like black women (which he admitted to in an interview) and who likely beat her because of his ‘black women issues’ . A man who played baseball during the ‘roid age. He says he never used, despite information to the contrary. A sex addict who cheated on her, but who she stayed with because of his daughter. And a deadbeat who lives off her and isn’t ashamed to admit it. Way to go Halle! Its ALL your fault. All their screw-ups. Your fault. The cheating? Your fault. The hitting? Your fault. Now she’s being blamed for Olivier gaining weight. I tell you this woman is evil. (sarcasm).
I see you conveniently skipped the father of her daughter.
Nope. He’s the one sitting on the couch waiting on his check. “a deadbeat who lives off her and isn’t ashamed to admit it.”
Can’t blame the men anymore, Halle !
So much drama with her all the time. And him too, probably. It’s Star, so probably false, but I’d be surprised if they made it long term.
Could it be possible that they are living separately because she is filming? Also, he could be adding weight and facial hair for a role? I just don’t really see any drama here, sorry. I mean, they could very well be separated, but it doesn’t really sound like it here. Also, a new baby will make a person look tired.
No one’s saying “I didn’t see this coming”. Halle has a slightly longer relationship lengths than Kim Kardashian’. I’m not saying he’s a prince, but let’s just put it this way….this isn’t her first rodeo. Not by far.
Don’t know a thing about him, other than the punch incident. But since that whole charade with her daughter’s father, I have zero respect for her.
I’d like to say what were they thinking, especially knowing her combustible history, but they are both batsh*t crazy, it was inevitable. Wonder who he’s going to punch out in a fit this time if a court doesn’t allow him to take his son to France.
Halle can’t maintain relationships for very long without them turning into a volatile drama-filled circus.
I lost all respect for her when she stirred the drama that had her daughters father being punched out in front of her home. She’s selfish, selfcentered, I can’t warm to her after the drama.
Maybe they are soulmates after all…
Now I know her secrect to staying so gorgeous. She sucks all the hot out of these dumb men, then tosses them aside for the next fresh kill. Oh, relax…I’m joking. (not really)
I was just thinking that! Lol…what happened? He was sooo gorgeous! Too many boxing rounds…
Isnt Star a magazine with made-up stories? Not sure I believe this.
Perhaps is made-up, but knowning Halle Berry love story, it wouldn’t be surprising if parts of the story are true.
At last I’ve found someone else who is insulted when constantly lied to, I am like you no nobody or magazine plays me for a fool with every edition and I still open my mouth and swallow.
—
There are actual recent (within the week ) photos of Halle ad Olivier together with with and without the children – so the question is:
Do I believe my lying eyes o the Star-bible Magazine.
Some guys are just plain stupid.
Star treats it’s reader like Lucy in Charlie brown…They are always putting the football down and they pulling it away and yet these no brains still believe them.
Yesterday I saw photos of Halle and her husband on a date with another coupe, they were laughing and talking, I suppose they were laughing at the fools who would believe Star Magazine, and waste their time commenting on it.
OR:
You can believe that Halle has moved out and is now living on Jupiter and Olivier is now living on Mars….Am I the only sane, smart individual in this world?
I get angry when I am lied to and treated like a fool by these magazines, don’t you?
Gypsy you are taking this way too personally. Yes Halle and Olivier were seen going to lunch on her birthday. With Halle’s assistant. There is a photo of Halle holding Olivier’s wrist. If you compare their old photos you’ll notice the obvious lack of affection. The gig is up. No way are those two still together. They probably have a legal contract for x amount of time to appear together while the lawyers and Halle’s publicist work behind the scenes to try to salvage Halle’s reputation after a nasty custody battle and what will be her 3rd divorce.
How is she taking it too personally, but YOU aren’t? Aren’t you part of the same, “I know everything about this couple, including their level of affection based on photos”?
Why is he so squinty these days. … all I can see is French Stewart.
She doesn’t deserve to be happy after the way she tried to destroy her daughters relationship with her Dad, dispicable, and tried to take her to live in France but thankfully Gabriel won. As the saying goes “what goes around comes around”.
I actually flinched when I read their quote regarding Olivier’s weight gain. Since when does that mean you’re finished w/your partner? Aye yi yi!
