After 15 years of keeping her daughter out of the spotlight, Halle Berry has finally shared rare images of Nahla. Nahla has often been caught up in the drama between her squabbling parents, including bizarre fights over her hair. But now, at the age of 15, Berry wanted to celebrate her daughter’s special day by sharing some precious moments with her fans.
Halle Berry, now 56, is a renowned actress in Hollywood with a career spanning three decades. She became the first black woman to win an Academy Award for Best Actress for her role in “Monster’s Ball” (2001). Although her infamous portrayal of Catwoman in 2004 received harsh criticism, she redeemed herself in the thriller “Perfect Stranger” with Bruce Willis (2007) and “Things We Lost in the Fire” in the same year. However, it was her role as Storm in the “X-Men” franchise that brought her global recognition and success.
Throughout her personal life, Berry has faced challenges in her relationships. She has been married twice, first to MBL player David Justice from 1993 to 1997, then to singer-songwriter Eric Benét from 2001 to 2005. However, it was her relationship with Gabriel Aubrey, a handsome Canadian model, that resulted in the birth of Nahla in 2008.
After announcing their divorce in 2010, Berry wanted to move Nahla to France to live a more private life with her new boyfriend, Olivier Martinez, whom she co-starred with in “Dark Tide.” However, the courts denied her request to take Nahla away from her father. Berry later married Martinez in 2013, and they share a son named Maceo. Unfortunately, their marriage also ended in divorce.
Despite their efforts to keep Nahla’s face hidden, she has captured the attention of the public. On Nahla’s 15th birthday, Berry shared a series of photos on social media. One photo shows Berry and Nahla sharing a joyful moment, another captures Nahla lying on a hammock, and the final photo shows her sitting on an outdoor couch with a stylish cap covering her face.
Berry captioned the photos with heartfelt words, expressing her love for her daughter. Fans were thrilled to see these rare glimpses into Nahla’s life. Some even expressed disbelief that she could already be 15 years old. Gabriel Aubrey, Nahla’s father, also shared his love for his daughter on her birthday by posting a photo of her on a swing, radiating with joy.
Co-parenting can be challenging, and Berry and Gabriel have had their share of disagreements, including a highly publicized incident over Nahla’s hair. Berry accused Aubrey of dyeing their daughter’s hair blonde without permission. After a court case and analysis of Nahla’s hair, it was confirmed that the hair had indeed been colored.
In a more recent incident, Berry faced criticism for shaving Nahla’s head. During the Covid lockdown, Nahla’s hair became matted, and despite efforts to brush it and untangle the knots, shaving was the only solution. Berry explained this decision during an appearance on “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.”
While some people have criticized Berry for her decision, others have praised her for handling the situation with care and teaching Nahla an important lesson about hair care. It is clear that Berry has her daughter’s best interests at heart.
Nahla is often compared to her father, Gabriel Aubrey, due to their striking resemblance. Their similar facial structure, eye shape, and golden locks have sparked discussions on the role of genetics in family resemblances.
As Nahla continues to grow and evolve, we look forward to seeing her beautiful face and witnessing her journey. Happy belated birthday, Nahla!
