Halle Berry's Fiancé Testifies in Custody Battle
8 Nov
Summary
- Van Hunt testified in court for Halle Berry's custody dispute.
- Judge denied restraining order request but kept custody restrictions.
- Berry and ex Olivier Martinez have joint legal custody of son Maceo.
Halle Berry and her fiancé, Van Hunt, were recently seen dining in West Hollywood following court proceedings in her custody battle with ex-husband Olivier Martinez. Hunt has been a significant source of support for Berry throughout the dispute concerning their 13-year-old son, Maceo.
Hunt's involvement was substantial, as he accompanied Berry to court on October 19 and took the witness stand on October 23. Berry's daughter, Nahla Aubry, also provided a supporting declaration.
A judge denied Martinez's request for a restraining order on October 29, finding he had not met the burden of proof. However, custody arrangements were modified, with Berry's visits limited to daytime hours and alternating weekends. She retains joint legal custody, while Martinez has primary physical custody.
Berry publicly confirmed her engagement to Hunt in February 2026, though the couple has not set a wedding date.
