Ex-husband Olivier Martinez accuses Halle Berry of physically attacking and choking their 12-year-old son.
The alleged late September incident began with verbal abuse before it became a physical assault.
Berry’s ex-husband says that it was not an isolated incident — but it was the last straw.
The filing appears to insinuate that alcohol abuse may have played a role in the alleged domestic violence.
Disturbing allegations have come out against Halle Berry
Olivier Martinez has filed a temporary restraining order against Halle Berry.
In the documents, Page Six reports, he accuses her of physically abusing Maceo, their 12-year-old son.
On September 26, Berry allegedly jumped on their son, placing her hands around his neck and choking him.
This alleged physical assault took place following verbal abuse, during which the actress allegedly told the tween that he looked “stupid” and was “such an idiot” for playing a VR game.
“The situation escalated and Petitioner jumped on our son and started physically fighting with him,” Martinez accused in the filing.
“She grabbed Maceo by the neck and started choking him,” Martinez described.
He alleged Berry of doing this “while shouting, ‘Who is dominant now?! Who is dominant?!’”
According to the filing, Van Hunt, Berry’s fiance, was present during the attack.
Maceo reportedly called Martinez to pick him up after the attack.
The documents note that he does not want to return to his mother’s home for obvious reasons.
This was allegedly not an isolated incident
In the document, Olivier Martinez alleged that Halle Berry has physically attacked their son on other occasions, meaning that the September 26 assault was not an isolated incident.
“Throughout the last year and a half,” the filing alleged, “Ms. Berry had wrestled Maceo to the ground and forced him to ‘tap out.’”
Martinez wrote that he has “significant concerns” about his ex-wife’s mental health “as well as her alcohol abuse.”
The document expresses his belief that this has “contributed to her abusive conduct” towards their son.
Martinez is requesting sole custody of Maceo. He is also seeking restraining orders to protect both him and his son.
Speaking through her attorney, Berry denied Martinez’s allegations.
Her lawyer referred to the filing as “entirely meritless and deliberately misleading.”
At this time, there are no reports of Martinez pressing criminal charges against Berry. Though the legal system does little to nothing to protect children from their parents, some would at least try. Others might try to avoid putting the victim through that experience, if they can help it.
Olivier and Berry were married for only two years before their 2015 split, but their contentious divorce lasted for eight long years.
Our thoughts are entirely with Maceo, who presumably is either the victim of monstrous abuse or is being used as a pawn in some sort of custody game. Either way, he’s clearly an innocent party who deserves protection.

We’ll give this to Jenelle Evans: when she decides to trash-talk someone, she really goes all in.
Earlier this year, Jenelle got back together with David Eason, her former husband and the father of her youngest child.
Predictably, things didn’t work out, and David and Jenelle broke up yet again.
Now, it seems that David has met someone new — and Jenelle is very much not a fan.
David posted a photo of himself and his new partner, a woman named Madi, and this apparently sent Jenelle into a rage.
In a series of social media posts, she quoted an unidentified source who had some interesting things to say about Madi
“’She’s a sweet but broken girl…she got caught up in human trafficking stuff on back page when she was younger and she built on a “career” from that. She goes and strips in Dallas about 3x a year and then comes home for a few. Interesting,” Jenelle wrote (via The Ashley’s Reality Roundup), adding:
“Pick and choose your partners wisely everyone, Ive heard so much about this girl and the funny part is I don’t even ask lmfao.”
But the slander didn’t end there, as Jenelle went on to offer up more quotes from her “source.”
“Madi gave me syphilis in 2023. She was sleeping around with multiple men and not protecting herself.” I’m gonna throw up
Jenelle later shared an Instagram post in which she revealed that she had decided to request child support from two of her baby daddies: Nathan Griffith and David.
“My daughter is 9 and my son is 12, and I finally filed child support after not asking for help and not receiving help voluntarily on their end,” Jenelle captioned a photo of herself placing two envelopes in a mailbox adding: “It takes a village but it’s me, myself, and I. Hopefully they can keep up.”
“Sometimes as a mom you need to ask for at least the BARE minimum,” she captioned the post.
Jenelle’s demand for financial compensation is fair. But as many of her followers pointed out, it seems to be motivated by a desire for revenge on David.
“Bet he’s gonna regret posting that picture,” one person wrote, with another adding, “Guess you saw that [pic] he posted. Typical.”
The move didn’t stop David and Madi’s PDAs, however.
Later that same day, she posted a photo of the two of them kissing, which he then shared to his Instagram Story.
So it looks like Jenelle and David are back to hurling public jabs at each other.
It would be amusing, were it not for the fact that Jenelle’s kids are now old enough to understand what’s going on.

Ari Lennox has released Vacancy: Late Checkout, an expanded edition of her third studio album, Vacancy. Now available on streaming platforms, the deluxe version adds nine tracks, including the recently released “Hookah Baby” and a new remix of “Mobbin in DC” featuring Foggieraw.
“Hookah Baby” opens the expanded tracklist with production from Tommy “TBHits” Brown, pairing Lennox’s vocals with synths, drums and bass. The deluxe edition continues with “Show Me” and the Jay Versace-produced “Slide,” alongside “Garden,” “Leave Me Alone,” “Speak Your Mind,” “Unicorn” and closing track “Hot Mess.” “Leave Me Alone” samples Shabba Ranks’ “Ting-A-Ling,” while “Speak Your Mind” was co-written with Grammy-winning songwriter Amy Allen.
The original Vacancy arrived in January with 15 tracks. Its songs included “Twin Flame,” “24 Seconds” and “Soft Girl Era,” the latter of which reunited Lennox with Jermaine Dupri and Bryan-Michael Cox, who previously worked with her on “Pressure.” Pitchfork wrote that the album featured “the most skillful vocal performances of Lennox’s career,” while highlighting the record’s focus on lived experience.
Lennox supported Vacancy with a 31-city North American tour that concluded in June. Other appearances during 2026 have included a performance of “Twin Flame” on The Jennifer Hudson Show, throwing the ceremonial first pitch at a Seattle Mariners game in April, a performance at ACL Live at The Moody Theater and a tribute to D’Angelo at the 2026 BET Awards. She is also scheduled to return to Austin City Limits for Season 52, performing a medley drawn from across her catalog. The episode is set to air October 17 at 8 p.m. CT/9 p.m. ET on PBS stations nationwide.
