Halle Berry isn’t here for the negativity surrounding her love life. The Hollywood icon fired back at critics who question her relationships, making it clear she refuses to settle for the wrong partner.
During her appearance on The Drew Barrymore Show this week, the Oscar-winning actress tackled the long-standing narrative that she struggles to maintain a relationship.
“I’ve heard people say, ‘Something must be wrong with Halle Berry. She can’t keep a man,’” Berry told Barrymore. “Who’s to say I wanna keep a man? I don’t wanna keep the wrong man. I’m not crazy, right?”
The Monster’s Ball star continued, emphasizing that everyone makes mistakes in relationships and has the right to walk away when things aren’t working. “We all make mistakes. We have a right to say, ‘Oh God, this was a mistake. Let me start again.’ We have a right to do that.”
Beyond addressing the critics, Berry also discussed an important new venture… her menopause-focused health platform, Rēspin. The 58-year-old actress shared her personal experience with perimenopause, revealing that her doctor initially misdiagnosed her symptoms as “a really bad case of herpes.”
With Rēspin, Berry aims to create a supportive community for women navigating menopause and overall wellness. Her candid discussion on the show highlights both her personal strength and her commitment to breaking stigmas around women’s health.
