This story just may qualify as poetic justice. Excuse me, I still believe this is too much money for someone who is not even an adult, but Halle Berry has been stuck with a child support bill comparable to the one celebrity men normally have to pay. Time.com reports:
Halle Berry may want to consider selling her gold statuette after a Los Angeles family court judge ordered her to pay $240,000 a year in child support.
The Monster’s Ball actress has been battling in court with
her ex-boyfriend, model Gabriel Aubry, for years over custody of their
young daughter Nahla, 4, but this is the first time the court has set an
amount for child support. In May, Aubry asked a Los Angeles judge to
award him the sum in order to support Nahla. Now Berry’s ex-boyfriend
can expect $20,000 a month from the actress, TMZ reports.
The Oscar winner, 45, split from Aubry, 36, in April 2010 after
dating for close to five years. While the couple had initially hoped to
work out a peaceful custody arrangement, it hasn’t ended up that way.
The couple has been in court for years trying to work out custody and
care arrangements. Last year, Berry told People magazine,
“Our issues were never about fighting for her. We both know a child
needs both her parents. But what I want to say about it is sometimes, as
a couple, you reach an impasse. We needed a court and a judge to help
us work out some of the delicate issues … because for her sake, this is
the best way. We both love her more than life.” Now Berry is seeking the
court’s permission to let her move Nahla to Paris, where Berry hopes to
move with her her fiancé, French actor Olivier Martinez.
