The legendary actress made headlines Wednesday after news broke that she and husband Olivier Martinez may have pulled the plug on finalizing their divorce after 10 months of dragging their feet. A document in their divorce file also shows that a court clerk sent each notices, warning them that their divorce would be dismissed by default unless they took some kind of action pretty soon.
We’ve spoken with multiple sources, on both Halle and Olivier’s side, and they say the same thing.
According to sources close to the couple, they’re getting along so well as estranged spouses that they’re in no rush to make the divorce final.
As for why. we’re told Halle isn’t convinced she wants a divorce. It seems Berry’s hoping the father of her son Maceo will change and work on his anger management problems.
French actor Olivier has a history of struggling with his temper, and it got him in trouble after he pushed an employee at Los Angeles’ LAX Airport with a auto seat.
Another reason they couple is reluctant to end the marriage, adds TMZ, is that they’re reportedly “getting along great” and are both active parents to their three-year-old son Maceo and eight-year-old Nahla, Berry’s daughter with ex Gabriel Aubrey. He cares about Nahla like if she were his own’.
And there’s another reason.
Halle is also apparently keen not to add a third divorce to her marital history, because she “doesn’t think it’s good for her, or her kids”.
Mostly, sources told TMZ, Berry might not be ready to start over in the romance department, given that she’s just turned 50.
