Halle Berry and Gabriel Aubry have been separated 'for some time'

While news recently broke that actress Halle Berry and her model beau Gabriel Aubry are splitsville, it appears that the news is not so new.

Berry’s spokesperson confirmed to CNN that the pair broke up awhile ago.

"Berry and Aubry have been split for some time, but they remain close friends and committed parents to their daughter," the spokesperson said in a statement released to CNN.

Berry and Aubry, who met several years ago on the set of a photo shoot, were together for five years. They are the parents of a two year old daughter, Nahla.

Berry had previously been involved in two high profile marriages.

She divorced former baseball player David Justice in 1997 after five years of marriage. She divorced R&B singer Eric Benet in 2005 after four years, amidst reports of infidelity on his part.

    U.S women are so pathetic...they are the most obese group on the earth!
    Dang! They talk too much and dont let their man be men. Try to control their men.
    All other cultures it is OK to have a mistress..even French Prez before Sarkozy had a mistress n wife at his funeral side by side. They are mature and not hypocrites like U.S.
    Now go to Asia, its OK to have girlfirend and wife. No need to divorce then.
    Move south to Africa, Middle East and S. America. They are pragmatic..have multiple wives and take care of them. How is that different than here where you have serial monogamy. Except here, the kids suffer no daddy, crime, psycho kids and no child support, Bad bad USA...please reform, get real and woman should be better at keeping man. IT IS HER FAULT if he strays. Simple. Now lets sit back and meet in 20 years when China dominates and sino-chinese culture will be prevalent global. No Hollywood, lazy obese watching woman.

    C'mon now.. this is so oold! I hate the way many ppl are blindly rushing to defend or downplay the big elephant in the room... esp some women who try to play the victim role on her and Over-rated Jen Aniston. Face it...this PR driven, E!, hollywood machine is just style NO substance!Woe to any fool who follows tabloid/gossip news. It should be limited really. This woman has a string of failed relationships from afar n many in the black communty knew this but kept quiet to "protect" her.. Now its glaring!! Even dating a white guy wont do. She has serious issues, let alone the hit and run which her PR machine covered and bought off any info from.
    Jen Aniston is also a sore loser...over-rated and small wonder many women secretly loathe that Jolie and Brad are happy. Deal with it!

    I don't really care too much for her. After she got in trouble for the Hi-and-Run scheme and didn't stop because she was in a hurry to some awards show, she lost SO many points. What goes around comes around and I think she is a little stuck on herself. My boyfriend was reading yesterday that she was with someone new, already. SO, don't feel sp bad for her.

    Halle Berry has always showed such class. I for one am very sorry to hear this news. Now I will watch the game of "Make the story up" that the media will play. This is played by pitting each of the couples against each other by quoting a "Close Friend" who is never defined and then – if the story doesn't bear any similarity to the truth, later quote your own sources that deny the rumour you started yesterday. Whichever way it goes best wishes for Halle, Gabriel and the beautiful Nahla anyway!

    amy, come on. that sounds like more of that typical celeb-adoring stuff that derek was talking about (especially since your point doesn't make logical sense so it must be an emotional response...she chose 2 'bad' men and none of that is her responsibility? and so she should go find another male model type, not marry him and still have a child to split wknds with down the road??). yes, having a child without a husband is irresponsible. yes, being in and out of relationships–particularly at the expense of a child who is involved–is irresponsible. period. lots of people do it, irresponsibly. you don't want to hear that and neither do many other people, but it's true.

    failures of love are directly related to self-love (which is related to spirituality for the robby types who have such strange anger towards someone like wise...keep your mind open robby because you will likely discover a lot more truth that way). any adult has an obligation to work that stuff out before bringing a child into the world. it's not all story book, it's not about checking boxes in life and feeling like you're doing what some manual says you should do. it should be so much more of a decision than that to get married and have a child. really, it is causing lots of strife within our culture and outside of it. it's too much of a heavy subject to cover here, but just think about all that is off kilter in this country and the world right now. more introspection about life's major choices that should be spiritually/love-based, like marriage and parenting, with a commitment to morality (including an absolute non-violent, non-warring stance about how humanity should deal with conflict) would get us to a better place. hopefully we can swing each other in that direction.

    look, having issues is not to be criticized...it's basic human nature to be flawed...but dealing with them as an adult in a way that drags innocent children into is obviously not right. it makes for a more grim future, and we need the opposite. kids need more hope through better examples from the adults that rear and influence.

    In today's fast paced instant gratification society, long term relationships are becoming passe. With the information sensory overload that we experience, if it it's not making us feel good NOW, we are so over it and on to the next fix. We are addicted to our own endorphins. Hollywood types are specifically challenged because their enormous wealth and sense of privilege that we bestow upon them leads them to believe that their happiness should come easy and not struggled for like the rest of us. Alas, they can't escape the fact that they are human and have human needs. The sense of betrayal at fame and fortune ensues. Drugs. alcohol, plastic surgeries, exorbitant spending befall many in an attempt to numb the emptiness that they feel. They are us, but not like us. They can't walk down a street or go shopping in a mall, have a quiet night out. They are trapped by fame, but fame really gives nothing in return on an emotional level. So what are they to do? I have never met Halle Berry, but I wish her the best and I hope that she can find a soulmate that will endure all of life's challenges with her, will make her laugh, and be there when she just has a crappy day and wants someone to listen to her complain. Someone who will share her interests and make her feel like all the vision she has for her life can actually come true. In fact, I wish that foe everyone reading this. Let's bring love back in style. Get rid of the ipods that inhibit communication, the impersonal twitter accounts, and the 24 hours of television that keeps us inside glued to information that we really only need about 5 minutes to get the jist of. Love is dying, can we save it?

    Mark-Way to judge another human being you don't know. Shows class! Halle didn't selfishly choose to have a baby in an irresponsible manner. She tried it the old-fashioned way and got 2 jerks. That baby is loved immensely by both parents and that's what matters.

    I almost feel bad for you Junny. It appears that you barely read the article and made a few assumptions that were clearly wrong. Halle and Gabriel were not married or even engaged. I am not surprised that she did not want to get married after getting divorced twice. It is sad that the child will be raised by a single mother (like millions of other people have) but I highly doubt the child will be on welfare. Personally, I have no ill feelings towards Ms. Berry but I knew she and Mr. Aubry would break up as soon as I heard she was carrying his child.

    Halle, Jennifer Anniston & back in the day, Jennifer Lopez. Beauty doesn't equal happiness. And it doesn't make these women less whiny or suffocating to the men they choose, thus, leaving them in the cold once the men come to their senses.

    Obviously they have issues that men can't deal with for the rest of their lives. Issues they need to address ASAP before they move on to the next victim.

    I hope it shows men that good looks only goes so far. Personality is forever.

    To quote Derek:

    Wth?

    Do any of you people know Halle Berry personally? Just because she is pretty doesn't mean she is a great person. Snap out of it!
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    DO YOU know her? You say just because she's pretty doesn't mean she's a great person. How do you know she's NOT? Just because she's had bad luck with men, and if you KNEW about the men she was with, you would understand why she divorced/left them. Nothing bad has been said about Aubry, so maybe they just drifted apart. It sounds like an amicable split. People DO drift you know!

    So for all of you who are ripping her apart, saying there must be something wrong with HER, you need to know about the men she was with who abused and cheated on her. Sometimes you don't see their TRUE colors until AFTER you marry or are too deep into the relationship. We all hope that "he or she's" the one, but you never know until maybe much, much later. Sadly.

    So please stop blaming Halle. You don't know the story there.

    David,

    How do you know she's wonderful? She's amazingly beautiful and a critically acclaimed actress–all a part of her public persona. However, if you do not know her personally, you do not know what type of "baggage" or issues she brought to or presented in the relationship. It is a fallacy of thought to assume that she is wonderful without know who she "really" is privately.

    I wish her and her daughter the very best...

    A quick shout out to everyone who has been critical of Junny's note; while the article states that Ms. Berry has indeed been divorced twice, it is also the case that she is now separrated from the father of her child. Anyone can misinterpret a statement upon first reading. Added to this, that the little girl's parents' relationship has come apart at the seams – with or without a divorce – does not make the situation any easier for anyone.

    Come on, now. The nastiness extended to Junny for what was clearly an honest mistake is unnecessary and inappropriate.

    Ms. Berry is a talented, intelligent and beautiful woman, and I only hope for the best for her and her sweet little one.

    You know why so many marriages break up today ; it is because they don't have the proper foundation. Meaning they don't have Jesus. I'm not saying that christians do not get divorced. I'm just saying, based on what I've seen, that if two people are christians they stand a better chance at staying married. I believe that divorce would be eliminated 100% if the couples sought the Lord for guidance before they seek out a spouse. Because God knows all and has authority over all and can not only guide you in marriage but in all aspects of your life. I know a lot of people will reject my comments but that just shows who leads your life. The way God set salvation up is that you have to humble yourself and forsake all cardinal knowledge and come to him in sincerity. Unless he chooses to show himself to you, this is the only way your eyes can be open to see him for who he is. Read John 10

    So what if it was 3 times, who cares, it it her life. And I don't think it is just celebs that have that 5 yr thing (it use to be called the 7 year itch) but, alas, we live in a faster paced world now. I was over 2 marriages at 32, 5 years each, so I made #3 do 10yrs before I would marry him (add both marriages together=10) he did! We are celebrating our 10 year wedding anniv in Oct and will have been together 20 years in Jan. I quess my Great Granny was right, she said "just live with them!" and see how that goes" There's somebody out there for everybody and Ms Berry will find hers some day.OH! and she got a daughter out of this one!, something more than the 2 marriages got her.

All the public sees is the outer wrapping which to a lot of people is beautiful but forget about the inner wrapping, the part that makes them just like anyone else. They make mistakes just like the rest of us. Beauty alone will never be enough to keep any man or woman in a relationship for the long haul.

    Larry: we don't care if YOU know her..Kee's point was that you're the only one who does apparently know her on this blog and look at all of the opinions about her from people who don't.

    Once again, we don't care if you personally know her....

    Didn't Halle adopt the daughter of her second husband? I remember her being crazy about the little girl. Halle is a beautiful person but she is bound to have issues that none of us know nothing about.

    Celebrity brings with it a curse when it comes to relationships of any sort.

    Unless you've known someone from childhood, it is very difficult to know the motives behind why / how people treat you. Questions you have to ask yourself;

    1. Is this person being nice to me because I have money?
    2. Is this person using me as a way to advance their own career?
    3. Does this person want to guarantee their own financial security by having a child with me?
    4. Or.... does this person genuinely like and care about me?

    Once you get past those things.... let say, wonder of wonders.... it is the last reason (#4). Then, you have to hope and pray you can navigate around the things that destroy non-celebrity relationships.

    Despite being a "celebrity," they (we) are people.... we all want to be happy and find someone to love ..... and be loved by. And for those of you who use the word "foolish," it seems you may not be familiar with the nature of love.... the one thing in the world that makes us ALL foolish, stupid, naive, and turns rational people into short term idiots.

    Given the added complications of being a celebrity, it's not a smart or foolish choice issue so much as it is just simply...... luck.

    It's sad that Halley & Aubrey broke up but this happens everyday in life celebrites get more media coverage. I wish them both the best and their beautifully little girl. I think people who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones. Leave Halley and Aubrey alone and let them work out their issues in peace.

    Halle Berry is a beautiful woman – full stop, I think we can all agree on that point. However, if you've ever heard/read her interviewed in an "off the record" context, as I have – she has a complete potty mouth, is often vulgar, and isn't the brightest crayon in the box – which sadly, really takes away from the whole package. Still, it takes two and who knows what the real deal is here. Clearly. looks alone (both Halle and Gabirel are gorgeous people!) don't account for integrity, ethics and good ol' family values. Let's be real people. It amazes me how so many treat marriage like toilet paper – easily discarded. It should be more difficult to GET married, than to get divorced.

    yes, and then people won't break up all the time...with children involved! it is not ok to simple accept that people break up all the time. we don't get a free pass because it just didn't work out, esp after children. any split couple choosing to do the best they can to parent, when they have already sadly and disappointingly given up on each other, is worth something–because it beats some other choices...but the child will almost undoubtedly suffer in various ways that they can't even predict. it's certainly not the way children are supposed to be raised, but our culture has become so off track that it's been forgotten...nearly forfeited as a foregone conclusion. that has to be reversed for this world to get into a better place.

    First, they were not married. Yes it is sad that couples don't stay together for the long haul. It is work and far too easy to get up and leave. But they are committed to their daughter and they have a strong friendship hopefully that will last longer that even those who are married and just staying for convenience. It's worse to not work at a marriage and just exist together. They are cheating themselves and their children. Couples aren't showing their children what a real marriage truly is and that it takes work, growth, love and the desire to help one another reach for their dreams. Easy no, but so much more fulfilling and rewarding. Anything worth having is not easy and that's what separates true love, commitment and determination from lust and convenience. Ask yourself, What am I doing to make my relationship the best it can be? Be responsible for your own behavior.

    Beauty without substance doesn't mean much and it doesn't make for a lasting relationship. We don't know Ms. Berry personally to judge or criticize her selection of men. Sometimes in relationships, even with the best intentions, things don't work out. How can anyone fault her for romantic relationship dissolving when her and Aubry still plan to be great parents to Nahla?? People break up all the time so the focus really should be on becoming the best "you".

    and larry...the point of derek's comment was not to locate one person who actually knows halle, but to point out how off track and outside-of-reality so many people are about the whole celeb thing, which is really ridiculous on multiple levels. i'm sure derek was responding to the input from people that surely DO NOT know halle or happened to grow up somewhere in ohio.

    the best takeaway–and perhaps only positive one?–from discussions spurred by celeb situations is the open forum it generates for reevaluating our own lives, choices, principles. hopefully is serves us all well that way.

    but man o man, forget that silly 'people' magazine and the other low brow absurd gossip junk that pretends to call itself a legit business (tmz?? entertainment tonight?? hollywood inside??). really, it's so against everything we should stand for as decent human beings. maybe someday people will finally choose to stop supporting these deplorable brands by not purchasing or watching or working for them (can you imagine choosing to work in gossip about other people??).

    this stuff obviously frustrates me, because we could have such a better co-existence without it.

    peace and happy monday.

    derek, i am so with you man....spot on. larry, it's nice to hear something good about anyone and perhaps you can validate halle's character somewhat (from knowing her 20-30 years ago? although i thought my ex-gf who was in that whole kooky beauty queen circuit with her that she was from akron).

    anyway, people...deal with with fact that YES SHE IS FOOLISH in the ways of love. she's proven that over and over. and who cares whether she was divorced or just living irresponsibly with a man so she could selfishly have a baby before that biological clock ticked away but without a real committment to giving the child a loving 2-parent home. this is a MAJOR source of so many problems in our world today–from disastrous global leaders in business, politics, religion right down to the home. look at school shootings and juvenile crime...predators,...thieves. people need to be raised with more values and more love inside the home. and that includes teaching personal accountability for choices, like halle's. of course she is just as responsible for her relationship selections–and their conclusions–as the other person. THAT IS ALWAYS THE CASE. wow, are there that many more women here that are blind to this fact and choosing the wrong relationships for themselves too but wanting to blame on the guy?? come on fellow citizens. it is up to YOU to choose well. every adult has that freedom, even in cases of arranged marriage traditions (just don't do it if you don't want a fabricated kind of love!). adults create their own version and degree of happiness.

    children, on the other hand, do not. and that is the really lousy part about selfishly choosing to have a child and using poor, weak judgement to choose spouses (or even worse, pseudo-spouses).

    many people don't want to hear that there are guidelines by which we should be living and loving and parenting–but there just are. that is the nature of morality. it is absolute, not convenient or flexible. i hope we can all keep trying to choose a better way for ourselves to the benefit of our future and those around us.

    I agree with Derek soooo much! You people are very lame, because unless you are living in a house with a person and know their every move you can't actually fully know what is going on. YES she is gorgeous, but be real for every action there is a consequence. And Larry.......you really need to grow up because just because someone is from where you from still doesn't mean you truly know them. That's why there is a such thing as FAKE PEOPLE. I wish her the best though, but right now it seems to me that she needs to find a BETTER way and that something is wrong with just more than the MEN she chooses.

    Derek – yes I know Halle. She is from my hometown of Cleveland, Ohio. And yes she is a nice person – very sensitive and generous of her time and money to those she trust. She is very smart business wise and how she manages to remain vibrant in the cutthroat world of Hollywood is a clear indication. Her personal life is just that "hers".

    Junny–
    What an embarrassment you are–mostly to yourself but you're too obtuse (look it up) to realize it. First, she has not been divorced three times. Second, even if she had, why would that make her "stupid?" Is Elizabeth Taylor "stupid" for having had multiple (7 or 8) divorces? Is Larry King "stupid" for his 7 marriages? Does anyone ever know what happens behind closed doors? The real question Junny is, are YOU stupid, illiterate, insensitive and judgmental. My guess? Durn tootin' you are–you probably share the same dental record with ALL of your family members. Go back under your rock and pray for a cleaner evolution next time.

    I'm sorry to hear about the split, but perhaps it's for the best. And I'm glad to see that they're still going to be loving and committed parents in the raising of their daughter. It's great that they're going to put their daughter first before anything else, as it should be. I hope they each eventually find someone to love, and who loves them in return.

    Junny,

    You have absolutely no idea what led to their split and to call someone "STUPID" because they're divorced a couple times is really insensitive and ignorant. When Halle and Justice got divorced, she had to get a restraining order against him. She's been the victim of domestic abuse before (Not sure if Justice was the abuser, but he did something that caused her to get that restraining order.) Halle and Benet split because he cheated on her. It doesn't seem to me that Halle is "Stupid" for leaving 2 unworthy men!

    Maybe she picks the wrong men or she has issues that the men can't take.
