Halle Berry Says She Won't Marry Gabriel Aubry

Halle Berry once famously vowed she’d never again tie the knot after two failed marriages.

Now, not even pregnancy will change her mind.

Halle is telling Oprah Winfrey that she has no plans to wed model-boyfriend Gabriel Aubry, the father of her baby.

When asked by Oprah during a taping of her show, “Are you still in that space?” Halle replied, “Yes.”

She continued, “What Gabriel and I have decided is that we will just redefine marriage for ourselves.”

Halle and Gabriel’s baby is due in the spring.

I hope Halle Berry is happy with her life. She has another “love” and he happens to be white. This was her choice. I sure hope her choice however, doesn’t imply having given up on Black men as there are many wonderful, caring, loving, faithful Black men available who would have made great husbands and Dads. (I have one). As for marriage, if her quote on redefining marriage is accurate, there is no such thing. Marriage is an institution ordained by God. That is why people marry in a church and the vows are sacred. If she is a Christian she knows that the laws of God as stated in the Bible do not change because we want them to or think it’s okay to bend them “just a little”. Celebrity, money, fame do not mean a thing to God. His laws (in the Word of God) are to instruct us on how to live our lives successfully. (Because he created us and loves us) and He is the manufacturer so he knows best. Marriages consist of men and women who then are blessed to have children. Children created outside of that institution are bastards (the Word again). God knows how important the union of marriage is to children. Halle, the world is watching. If you truly love this man (agape love) and God brought him into your life (I sure hope so) then let him put a ring on your finger and commit his life to you and you to him. If this is real, money and prenuptial agreements should not be a consideration. Anything else is only a secular “relationship” when viewed through the eyes of the “world” may seem acceptable to you but I’m afraid will ultimately fail. Please don’t promote this standard for our young men and women who look up to celebs like you.

This is just my opinion and I’m not alone in this, many posters on other boards have mentioned how they don’t like how the media seems to paint Gabriel as this ‘perfect’ man. In fact, they were saying this when he and Halle had only dated a few months (he was already Halle’s “perfect” man) —— it appears to be because he’s a white man — The media even has the audacity to compare him to her past ‘black’ male relationships - by taking polls to see who was the better guy for Halle - OBVIOUSLY not a fair comparison considering Halle herself discussed publicly the issues she had with her past relationships and how they allegedly dogged her — although I’m sure she had her issues as well. I’m sorry to vent, but the media seems to almost glorify Gabriel like he’s Halle “great white hope.” And it’s beginning to be too much. They never did this with her past relationships. Halle I believe is guilty of this a little as well. I remember when Halle would date her black boyfriends she would always say they are just her “friends.” But the moment she meets Gabriel she was ready to tell the world. We are victims of society’s racist teachings, so perhaps it was just subconscious on Halle’s part. But I will say this…at least Halle married her ‘black’ boyfriends…but I guess she did not want a baby from them. Perhaps she’s living out her childhood dream through her child to be. Didn’t she say she wished she were white growing up. Hmmmmm….

In other words, I think it’s sickening how the media continues to dog black men in a subtle way and uplift white men - as if they are the greater species on this planet — obviously not true. Men are men - PERIOD- some good, some bad - not matter the race! In the end, who knows what the future holds - Gabriel could turn out to be an undercover creep - so I hope the media can cease with the Halle has found an angel stories —

They are both donkeys to me. Too bad Halle could not have found love with Michael Ealy. That seemed more like a real relationship. At least she got a baby out of this one though. GOOD JOB HALLE (being sarcastic).
