Halle Berry Accusations Explained: Timeline of Legal Battles With Ex-Husband
Halle Berry allegedly "physically attacked and choked" her 12-year-old son.
In a recent legal battle, Halle Berry's ex-husband, Olivier Martinez, has accused her of assaulting their 12-year-old son, Maceo, in what he claims is an ongoing pattern of abuse. According to Martinez, Berry has been known to choke Maceo and put him in a chokehold, causing him to tap out. The former couple's son reported the incident to his father, who then contacted Berry to ask if it was okay for him to take Maceo away.
Berry initially refused, expressing her displeasure with the situation. However, later that day, she reached out to Maceo to speak with him and attempt to mend their relationship. Martinez has also alleged that Berry has slapped Maceo and engaged in other abusive behaviors. Despite the gravity of the allegations, Berry's attorney has dismissed the claims as "meritless and deliberately misleading."
