Halle Berry says no to marriage

Can’t blame Halle Berry. She burned herself not only once but twice. No wonder she doesn’t see herself marrying her new beau, the model-turned-restaurateur Gabriel Aubry, the owner of Cafe Fuego in New York. Perhaps he doesn’t have what it takes or the 41-year-old Oscar winner actress is just fed up with the ritual. For more than a year the two have been dating but Halle says she doesn’t have any plan to “walk down the aisle with him, or anybody.”
Via People, the article will come out in the April issue of InStyle, “I will never, never get married again… Actually it’s just that now I’ve come to a place where I think two people can share their lives without the ring, without the piece of paper.”
Her husbands included Atlanta Braves player David Justice and R&B singer Eric Benét. In the end she wasn’t meant to be happy as both marriages ended in divorce. Eric allegedly cheated on her 27 times.
She met the French-Canadian Gabriel, 31, while shooting a Versace ad in November 2005. The two made their public debut as a couple three months later at the opening of a Versace store in New York City.
Halle confided to In Style:
“After my last relationship [with actor Michael Ealy] broke up I was feeling like, well, it wasn’t that I didn’t want to be in a relationship, it’s just that I thought it would be okay to be on my own. But he was disarmingly sweet and caring and different. In the past I’ve been attracted to big personalities. Gabriel was shy. He hardly talked to me at first. But that just made him more appealing…
I had to work at this a little. It wasn’t a slam dunk; it wasn’t the guy just showering affection on me. It made it more interesting. We were equally matched – put it that way.”
Though at the moment she despises getting tied she doesn’t say no to having children. Even to the point of adopting. “I definitely want children. Very much. I want my kids to realize it’s only through hard work that any success or real joy comes… It’s not about money; it’s the intangible rewards – having integrity and doing what you say you’re going to do.”
Halle, whose new movie with Bruce Willis, “Perfect Stranger,” will be out in the cinemas in April. In it she plays an undercover agent. Halle explored the secret world of internet chat-rooms and hidden identities for the role, describes the film is “an interesting psychological look at people and how we’re all somebody really different than who we present.”
Shady, unlovable side that she probably dealt with her former husbands’ characters.
