Halle Berry Finalizes Custody Agreement With Olivier Martinez
Back in April, we broke the story that the former couple had agreed to settle their differences outside the court with a private judge. It's quite common amongst the biggest A-list celebrities, like Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, who recently used a private judge to resolve their issues.
In 2015, Halle and Olivier announced their divorce, saying in a joint statement, "We move forward with love and respect for one another and the shared focus of what is best for our son." But, the former couple filed dueling divorce papers and disagreed on spousal support. In Halle's papers, she asked for no spousal support for either party. Also, she claimed the ex-couple had a prenuptial agreement that outlined the costs and payments associated with the support of their son.
The good news is they both agreed to share joint custody of their child, saying, they will, "share custody as is in the best interest of the child."
According to sources, the couple's split was partly caused by disagreements over their living situation. At the time, Berry planned on raising her two children in Europe but was never able to make the move due to problems with her daughter's father, Gabriel Aubry.

Halle responded to the message, saying, "Thank you Van for always letting me be ME and loving me anyway!"
It should be noted, the actress addressed the divorce situation in an interview with Woman's Health, saying, "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." She continued, "I just feel fulfilled; I feel happy in my life romantically, as a mother, as an artist."
