FOURTH TIME’S THE CHARM

Halle Berry, 59, Set to Marry for the Fourth Time

“He did put a little ring on it,” the actress said.

Academy Award winner Halle Berry, 59, announced she is engaged to her boyfriend of six years, Van Hunt, 55. “He did put a little ring on it,” Berry said during a Thursday appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. “There’s some confusion that he asked to marry me, and I said no,” Berry said, referring to a Today.com interview in which the couple revealed that Hunt had proposed, but the engagement was “still on hold” due to what the Catwoman actress described as their combined history with marriage. “I’ve been married three times. Van has been married once, and so no, we don’t feel like we have to get married to validate our love,” the actress told Today.com in June. Berry was formerly married to baseball player David Justice, singer-songwriter Eric Benét, and actor Olivier Martinez. She confirmed her relationship with Hunt in September 2020, and the two allegedly began dating in the spring of that year. “I did not say ‘no,’ we just don’t have a date. Of course, I said ‘yes, I would marry him,’” Berry clarified on Thursday. In 2024, Berry told Marie Claire that it took her a “minute” to “get it right” in relationships, but that Hunt was her “person.”
