Olivier Martinez’s star was on the rise in the 2000s. Not only did fans take notice but so did the Hollywood elite. He had several public affairs one with singer Kylie Minogue, Mira Sorvino, Michelle Rodriguez and Rosie Huntington. He and actress Halle Berry met for the first time in 2010 on the set of Dark Tides. Halle was int he middle of a custody battle with ex Gabriel Aubry over their daughter Nahla. the fight happened after Gabriel dropped his four-year-old daughter with Halle, Nahla, off at their home. Martinez was involved in a physical brawl with Berry’s former lover in 2012 which resulted in Gabriel having severe bruising on his face.
Olivier reportedly followed him outside and told him ‘they needed to talk’.
After that, Gabriel is said to have pushed the French actor and then lashed out at his face, hitting his shoulder instead. In an act of self-defense, the police sources say Olivier then took three quick punches to Gabriel’s face, which resulted in the injuries and bruises the Canadian actor has been sporting since.
Olivier and Halle had a small wedding in France in July 2013. This is the third marriage for Berry, 46; she was previously wed to baseball player David Justice (from 1993 to 1997) and to R&B singer Eric Benet (from 2001 to 2005). After her second divorce, the Cloud Atlas actress said she’d never again walk down the aisle. But falling in love with Martinez changed her mind. In October 2013 they gave birth to their son.
