Halle Berry and her boyfriend, Van Hunt, met in 2020, and the relationship couldn’t have come at a better time for her. Berry was just starting to figure herself out when she was introduced to Hunt through his brother. While their relationship has been going on for years, Berry has not yet accepted Hunt’s engagement. A source recently revealed Berry’s true feelings for Hunt.
Berry has been through three marriages and a number of other relationships that did not end well for her. She was married to baseball player David Justice, singer-songwriter Eric Benét, and French actor Olivier Martinez. She has a daughter with French-Canadian model Gabriel Aubry and a son with Martinez.
Halle Berry considers Van Hunt her soulmate despite refusing to be his fiancée
Halle Berry once detailed the story of how she met her boyfriend of five years, Van Hunt. She told Marie Claire that it was Hunt’s brother, who is her friend, who introduced them. She shared that she and Hunt quickly connected, and she went on to claim that it was the first time she was madly in love with someone before having a physical relationship.
Berry called it a “life-changing” and “magical” experience. She further shared that she had a real belief in Hunt being her person because of how the relationship happened. She shared with Marie Claire:
It was the first time I was madly in love before I had sex. That has never happened to me, ever. Talk about one of those life-changing, beautiful experiences. It was magical, just magical. It took me a minute to get it right. But the nature of the way this happened, I have a real belief that this is it. This is my person.
Berry even told the outlet that she hoped to tie the knot with him in the future. However, they didn’t go through with that plan, and it doesn’t appear that they are anywhere closer to marrying each other. Despite her reluctance to get married, a source told In Touch Weekly that the actress considers Hunt her soulmate.
The insider shared that Berry is confident that she is going to spend the rest of her life with him. They added that he is her happy ending and the one who was meant for her all along. The insider shared:
Halle says Van is her soulmate. She’s 100% sure she wants to spend the rest of her life with him. Before meeting Van, she swore off ever getting married again; she was so disillusioned with men and with the whole ‘fairytale ending’ fantasy. But then she met Van, and she opened up her heart again, and the truth is, she does feel like he is her happy ending — the one she was meant to be with all along.
The source added that Hunt was different from her past relationships, as “it all went much slower” between her and Hunt. The source shared, “The passion is there for sure. They’re still wildly attracted to each other, but it’s a much deeper love than just physical attraction.” The closest Halle Berry came to a commitment with Van Hunt was when she told AARP that her son Maceo did a little commitment ceremony for them.
Why is Halle Berry afraid of making a marriage commitment?
Halle Berry and musician Van Hunt’s relationship is going so well that an obvious next step would be their marriage. However, Berry and Hunt have yet to tie the knot, and a source explained one possible reason.
The insider explained to OK! Magazine that Berry didn’t want to end up in another failed marriage, and it was the fear that was stopping her from committing to Hunt. She shared:
Halle doesn’t want to make another mistake and end up in divorce court. Van’s so easygoing and great with her two kids, but the idea of saying ‘I do’ only to have the marriage crash and burn scares her.
According to the source, it might just not be the fear of divorce that is stopping Berry. The source also pointed out that Berry has a lot at stake when it comes to the marriage, as her reported net worth is $90 million against Hunt’s $10 million net worth. The source shared, “She’s happier than she’s been in a long time. Why rock the boat?”
Berry also had her share of relationships ending on bad terms. One of her celebrity ex-boyfriends from Hollywood allegedly abused her and punctured her eardrum in 1991. It caused her to lose 80% of her hearing in her left ear (via PEOPLE). She also had a long custody battle with Gabriel Aubry over their daughter. They eventually reached an amicable custody agreement.
