Halle Berry's Custody Fight Goes Deeper
Key Points:
- Halle Berry is seeking to reinstate a 50/50 custody arrangement with ex-husband Olivier Martinez for their 12-year-old son, Maceo, and wants to regain final decision-making authority in disputes.
- Berry alleges Martinez is turning their son against her, undermining her parental authority, and resisting necessary educational and psychological interventions for Maceo.
- Berry denies Martinez's claims of assaulting their son, admitting only to "playfully roughhousing" during a disagreement over a VR game, and criticizes Martinez for limited structure and rule enforcement.
- Martinez is contesting the custody arrangement, requesting sole custody and a no-contact order, accusing Berry of physical abuse and demanding sobriety conditions for her visits.
- A judge has issued a temporary restraining order against Berry, reduced her visitation rights, but maintained limited contact with Maceo.
