Halle Berry has made a shocking statement against her ex-husband, Olivier Martinez, regarding their ongoing custody battle for their 10-year-old son, Maceo. The 58-year-old actress, who married the French actor in 2013 and separated in 2016, is now locked in a legal struggle over their child’s welfare.
According to MailOnline, both Berry and Martinez have recently made new claims in legal documents related to their custody dispute. Berry has accused Martinez of causing “detrimental harm” to their son by attempting to delay an upcoming custody hearing. She expressed concern that their son is “struggling in school,” revealing that Maceo is “grade levels behind” and has been diagnosed with ADHD and mild dyslexia.
In her statement, Berry suggested that Martinez is either “oblivious” to their son’s challenges or is “carelessly disregarding them.” She believes that Martinez’s actions are negatively impacting their son’s well-being, particularly in the educational and developmental support that Maceo needs.
On the other hand, Martinez has countered Berry’s claims by accusing her of trying to take advantage of him in the legal process. He argues that she is not allowing him adequate time to prepare for the custody hearing and has accused her of “attempting to bootstrap her way into an immediate hearing” that would give him “the absolute minimum” time with their son.
This latest development comes on the heels of reports suggesting that Berry is seeking sole custody of Maceo. The tension between the former couple has been escalating as they both fight for what they believe is in the best interest of their child.
The ongoing custody battle between Berry and Martinez highlights the complexities and emotional toll that such disputes can take on families. As the legal proceedings continue, both parties are likely to remain steadfast in their positions, each advocating for what they believe will best serve their son’s future.
