Halle Berry’s fiance Oliver Martinez has confirmed that the couple will welcome a son later this year.
The Monsters Ball actress never confirmed whether or not she would have a son or a daughter, but following reports of her pregnancy, news that she was expecting a son began to surface.
Martinez confirmed the news to People saying, “My son will be an American, but I remain French.”
This will be the second child for Berry, who is mother to 5-year-old daughter Nahla with ex-boyfriend Gabriel Aubry. Berry and Martinez previously tried to move to Paris, where Martinez’s is originally from, but to their dismay the court denied their request to move following a bitter custody battle with Aubry.
“I’m French, it’s less important,” Martinez explained.” Meaning, I remain a Frenchman in America, but I adapt to American culture. I feel good there, but I’m still a foreigner.”
He added, “My son will be an American!”
Berry and Martinez will welcome their first child together later this year.
