Actress Halle Berry has finally broken her silence after splitting with model Gabriel Aubry in April. The Academy Award-winning actress said it was a long time coming with Aubry, her model boyfriend, who is the father to her two-year-old daughter, Nahla.
"Gabriel and I had long dealt with it," the New York Daily News quoted Berry as telling Vogue
of her split. "We were done. And we were on a good foot, and we had decided what we were going to do for Nahla, and we were able to say, ''This will pass."
Berry goes on to say that there are 'no discord' and 'no fighting' with Aubry, whom she calls an 'amazing father'. "We have always been friends, we're still friends, we love each other very much and we both share the love of our lives," she said. "And we are both 100 percent committed to being the best parents we can be ... She will see as she grows that we have a lot of love for each other" she added.
Despite ending their nearly four-year relationship, Berry seems to be taking the break up positively. "You realize you are not meant to go the distance with everybody," she said. "We were meant to bring this amazing little person into the world. And I think that's why we came together. And because of that, we are going to be together forever, all three of us. We are a family until we are not here anymore."
Moreover, Berry said she is still open for love. "I'm not done with love, but I refuse to settle. I am a hopeless romantic. And I won't stop till I get it right," she added.
Oscar-winning actress Halle Berry and French-Canadian model Gabriel Aubry have decided to end their five-year romance but will remain on good terms for the sake of their two-year-old daughter Nahla.
"They are working well together and are handling parental duties without conflict," femalefirst.co.uk quoted a source as saying.
Although they were not married, Halle is said to have visited a divorce lawyer three weeks ago to find out about a custody agreement for Nahla.
The former couple have agreed to a short-term plan but a long-term agreement concerning the guardianship of their daughter and division of assets is yet to be decided.
Halle's first marriage to David Justice, a former baseball player, ended after four years in 1997. Whereas her second union to musician Eric Benet imploded after four years when she discovered he had cheated on her.
After two failed marriages Halle vowed not to wed Gabriel because she didn't need to be a wife to be happy.
"I will never marry again. I have a good healthy love for myself and love in my life. I no longer feel the need to be someone's wife and I don't need the validation of a marriage certificate," she added.
One of life’s big questions: who has the best lips, Angelina Jolie or Scarlett Johannson?, has been finally answered with the help of scientific precision.
And the winner is. Italian actress and fashion model Monica Belluci who scored perfect marks for 'Lip Attractiveness'.
An American biometrics specialist has developed lip-reading software, which uses a scientific formula to rate lips on a 10-point attractiveness scale.
The Baileys Lip Attractiveness Software is the brainchild of 'Lipologist' Dr Kendra Schmid.
The formula analyses lip proportion, size, fullness, texture, colour and shape.
Although, both Jolie and Johansson scored high on the global top lips list, it was Belluci who took away the first spot.
Bellucci achieved a 10 for lips that are full, smooth and ideally proportioned so that the height of her lips is two-thirds the width.
Johannson scored second with 9.66, Halle Berry third with 9.61, Beyonce Knowles scored a 8.65, and Angelina Jolie rounded out the top 5 with 7.89.
"This is a world first in biometrics; using formulas to objectively score lips according to the characteristics of size, shape, texture and colour," News.com.au quoted Schmid, as saying.
The top five are:
1 Monica Belluci
2 Scarlett Johannson
3 Halle Berry
4 Beyonce Knowles
5 Angelina Jolie is the perfect pout
