Rep: Halle Berry quits film to fight for custody
LOS ANGELES (AP) — Halle Berry has pulled out of a film job to prepare for a custody fight over her young daughter.
A spokeswoman for the Oscar-winning actress says Berry backed out of a role in New Year’s Eve that was scheduled to shoot in New York this week “due to pending custody litigation involving her daughter”.
Publicist Meredith O’Sullivan did not say where or when the custody case would be heard.
Berry and her exboyfriend, Gabriel Aubry, have a daughter, Nahla, who will turn three in March.
Attempts to reach Aubry on Monday were unsuccessful.
