Halle Berry Expecting a Boy

The Oscar winner’s fiancé, Olivier Martinez, confirms the baby’s gender.

Halle Berry will soon be welcoming a new little man in her life. People.com is reporting that the Academy Award-winning actress will be giving birth to a baby boy later this year. Berry’s longtime beau and baby’s father, Olivier Martinez, confirmed the news on Wednesday.

“My son will be American,” Martinez told People, “but I remain French.” The actor talked the differences between to the two cultures while in Paris for the Champs-Elysées Film Festival. “I remain a Frenchman in America, but I adapt to American culture,” he added. “I feel good there — but I’m still a foreigner.”

The Berry-Martinez baby boy marks the couple’s first child together. The actor's pregnancy was reported back in April and her son is due in the fall. This also means that the very adorable Nahla Ariela, Berry’s 5-year-old daughter with former boyfriend Gabriel Aubry, will soon be taking up the role of big sister to her little bro in the household.

Congratulations to the couple on this exciting update to their already wonderful news.
