    Third time's the charm for Halle Berry

    The 45-year-old actress and Olivier Martinez are engaged, a source confirms to the new Us Weekly, on stands Friday.

    Over the holidays, Martinez, 46, proposed with an emerald-and-diamond ring from Gurhan.

    Berry, who has a 3-year-old daughter, Nahla, with ex-boyfriend Gabriel Aubry, has been married twice before. (She dated model Aubry, 36, for nearly five years before splitting in April 2010.) She wed former baseball player David Justice in 1993 and divorced four years later. She then married R&B singer Eric Benet in 2001, only to separate in 2003 and finalize their divorce in 2005.

      everybody keeps talking about how beautiful halle is like that's going to make her marriage work. apparently her "beauty" hasn't been enough for her to sustain any of her previous marriages. it takes more than a pretty face and nice figure to make in a any relationship work. stop looking at the outter appearance and more at what someone has to offer for the longevity of a relationship.

        my sister was married 5 times. dumped them all. having an alcoholic dad made her run like hell any time a problem came up. Fathers! you ARE important. your daughter will marry a man just like YOU. That little girl is watching every move you make. Be the kind of man you'd want for your daughter. Be home! Be attentive! Be loving! Keep it in your pants (except for your spouse, of course)! Be sober! Be honest!

      Just finished reading his bio at Wiki...It doesn't look very good folks. It says that he's dated a string of hollywood actresses and is a well know womanizer. Good going, Halle!
      • SongBirdLadyD 4 months ago
        The marriage isn't expected to last anyway so he's perfect for her!

        he has dated alot of women in hollywood, many he wants to get a good movie script and is marrying her for publiciyt.
      • abc123 4 months ago
        So many women think they can "fix", "train", "cure", "change" a man. Especially the ones who have had their ego boosted their whole lives. When will we ever learn????

      I thought she said she wasn't getting married ever again?

        I said that too, then met my husband. Ya don't see it coming, IT finds YOU.
      • JohnnyUwho 4 months ago
        yeah, but nothing is happening with her career so she needs to make the tabloids somehow. It won't be long before you read about the strains that her career has put on the relationship, thus ending the marriage.

      Girlfriend is stunning! I am loving the dress, does she age?
      • sam 4 months ago
        You're right, she really doesn't seem to age much at all. And I've always thought the short hair is very flattering on her.
      • BlueMan 4 months ago
        Makeup covers up alot. She is just as plain as the rest of us without it.

      Please make sure this is the one before you take that step and say "I DO" and make sure you have that "PRE NUP" girlfriend.
    • Lone Angel  •  4 months ago
      The problem with meeting actors and falling in love on the set is that the real person is quite different from the character seen on and around the set. That goes for Halle too. It seems this is all about the upcoming movie, and not about the sanctity of marriage. But what do I know? I'm neither good looking, a successful actor, or rich. I have, however, been married to the same woman over forty years (is that a plus or another minus?),
    • Nosfera2  •  4 months ago
      What a mockery marriage has become.
    • MR  •  4 months ago
      Olivier is a known womanizer! She seems to like unstable men. Oh, well! I hope she finds happiness with him!

    • ministerzel  •  4 months ago
      I wish her well, as I would want others to wish me. It is her life and she is free to make her decisions about it. Congratulations, Halle!
    • Rita  •  Washington, District of Columbia  •  4 months ago
      she needs to learn how to be alone for a change, her, Jennifer lopez, and Janet Jackson jump into one relationship after another, something is truly wrong with these ladies inside that they truly feel like the always need a man in there life.
    • masondixon  •  4 months ago
      really saddened by this news......I had been hoping I would strike up a conversation with her at an out of the way coffee shop, and love would bloom.. after all, Halle, what other grown man cried for you when you gave your Oscar speech?
    • Maria S  •  San Jose, Costa Rica  •  4 months ago
      If they are happy living together why the need for marriage?? But I do wonder why Halle has to jump again to another marriage they seem happy together why get married, Hasnt she learned from her past marriages yet? She is following JLo footsteps. I mean if she really really thinks and believe deep in her heart that Olivier is the one she will spend her rest of her life with then go ahead and marry but if she marries then to find that she fall in love or hook up with another guy she ran into later time, so then dont marry and just live with Olivier, no attachments, no committments Im not married and never been married but I dont know if a woman is really happy and satisfied when she has been married for than 4 times.. Do they really are happy with more than 3 marriages?
    • whatsonmymind  •  Mission, Kansas  •  4 months ago
      But, really we dont know who has been the problem in her relationships-she is the common denominator-or she picks asshole men.
    • Just BN Me  •  4 months ago
      Well at least she hasn't give up on the idea of love. People get married and divorce multiple times. The key is learning the lessons. I hope she has learned more about herself and healed whatever wounds she has and also realized what mistakes she may be making in her choices in men. I just got out of my 2nd marriage and will be marrying again one day. The only difference.....I'm not a celebrity so it's not in the news. Ha!

      What's with beautiful women having man problems all of the time?
    • Chris  •  Houston, Texas  •  4 months ago
      She has the looks,money and fame but without a man she feels like she is NOTHING. She would rather be get married over and over as long as she isn't alone.
