Daughter Defends Halle Berry Amid Abuse Claims
8 Oct
Summary
- Nahla Aubry testified in court documents supporting her mother.
- Allegations stem from an accusation by ex- Olivier Martinez.
- Martinez sought sole custody of their son, Maceo.
Halle Berry's daughter, Nahla Aubry, has publicly defended her mother against child abuse allegations. Martinez, Berry's ex-husband, accused the actress of physically abusing their 13-year-old son, Maceo, and sought sole custody. In court documents filed on October 3, Nahla Aubry, who is 18, stated she "never observed anything abusive about her parenting."
Nahla described Berry as a "loving and devoted parent" who is "warm, supportive, and deeply involved." She explicitly denied witnessing any physical abuse towards Maceo, stating, "I have never seen my mom hit, slap, choke, grab, or physically abuse Maceo in any way." Nahla also shared a personal memory of Martinez allegedly assaulting her father when she was young.
Martinez was granted a temporary restraining order on October 1, limiting Berry's parenting time ahead of an October 16 hearing. He stated his "paramount concern is and always has been the health, welfare, and safety of our son, Maceo."
