Halle Berry to fight for custody of daughter

Hollywood star Halle Berry is planning to take ex Gabriel Aubry, 35, to court to fight for the custody of their daughter, Nahla, 2.

“Halle Berry was forced to pull out of a film production in New York this week due to pending custody litigation involving her daughter,” her publicist told the New York Daily News in a statement.

“She has attempted to resolve these custody issues amicably with her daughter's father, Gabriel Aubry, directly, but given his lack of cooperation, Halle has no choice but to seek swift judicial intervention.

“Halle has serious concerns for her daughter's well-being while in the care of her father for any extended period of time and is prepared to take all necessary steps to protect her.

“Halle has always made the needs and safety of her daughter her first priority and, both while Halle and Gabriel were a couple and since their break-up, Halle has only acted in her daughter's best interest,” the statement continued.
