Halle Berry Believes She’s ‘A Much Better Mother’ Being With Van Hunt Than Being With Exes That ‘Didn’t Serve’ Her

Halle Berry is getting candid about her relationship. As previously reported, Halle Berry and Van Hunt made their relationship public back in September of 2020 but sources say they were dating several months prior to that. The 55-year-old even publicly thanked him at an event and said,

“My love, love, love — my sweetheart. I’ve never had a man that has lifted me up and let me be all that I am.”

The Oscar-winning actress is seemingly happier than ever and her relationship with Van Hunt has influenced her life in more ways than one. She said,

“I just feel fulfilled. I feel happy in my life romantically, as a mother, as an artist. I’m a much better mother in this circumstance than I would have been had I stayed in a romantic relationship that didn’t serve me and didn’t make me feel the way I need to feel as a woman.”

According to reports, Halle Berry realized that self-care is also an integral role of being a good mother. She said,

“I’m reminded that we always have to take care of ourselves first, because I can’t be a good mother for my children if I’m not fundamentally happy and feeling good about myself.”

She has two children from her previous marriages. The Bruised actress shares a son, Maceo, with Oliver Martinez and a daughter, Nahla, with her ex-husband, Gabriel Aubry. When it comes to Berry’s parenting, she opened up about some of the core lessons she’s passing on to her kids. She said she tells her daughter,

“Use your voice. You have a right to be heard. You are loved and accepted just as you are. Only you define who you are.”

She continues and says,

“I’m trying to teach them to march to the beat of their own drum. Be true to themselves, and not be followers, but be leaders and innovators.”
