[UPDATE] Halle Berry Suffers Major Blow In Custody Battle w/ Ex-Husband Olivier Martinez As Judge Awards Him Primary Physical Custody Of Their Son

#HalleBerry has suffered a major setback in her bitter custody battle with ex-husband #OlivierMartinez, although she did score one legal victory.

According to TMZ, a judge has awarded Olivier primary physical custody of their 13-year-old son, Maceo, and ruled that Halle can no longer have overnight visits with him. The decision comes after Halle’s legal team reportedly pushed to restore the former couple’s previous 50/50 custody arrangement. However, the judge rejected that request while agreeing to dissolve the dome$tic v!olence restraining order against the actress. Olivier’s attorney called the custody ruling a “huge victory,” while Halle’s rep clarified that she still shares joint legal custody and has the final say if the parents cannot agree on a decision. The judge will reportedly revisit custody issues sometime next month.

The ruling follows weeks of serious allegations and courtroom drama. Olivier accused Halle of ch*king their son during an altercation, which she has denied, while Halle alleged that her ex coached Maceo. Their son ultimately testified behind closed doors, with both parents excluded from the courtroom. Halle has yet to publicly address the situation, although an #InstagramStory that appeared on her account earlier this week read, “If kids disrespect their mom, the root cause often traces back to their relationship with the father.” However, sources close to Halle claim her account was hacked and that she did not share the message.
