Halle Berry has officially confirmed she is engaged to her longtime boyfriend, musician Van Hunt, and is preparing to walk down the aisle for the fourth time.
The 59-year-old actress appeared as a guest on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon and surprised fans by revealing the happy news and proudly displaying her eye-catching engagement ring.
Addressing some online confusion, Berry clarified the timeline of events with a smile:
“Well, there’s some confusion that he asked to marry me, and I said no. No, that’s not the case. I did not say no. We just don’t have a date.”
She continued enthusiastically:
“But of course I said I would marry him! He did put a little ring on it.”
Berry then flashed her impressive new engagement ring to the camera, showing off a sparkling square-shaped diamond set on a sleek gold band. The large, brilliantly cut center stone caught the light and drew gasps from the audience and host Jimmy Fallon alike.
Berry has described Van Hunt as the “love of my life”, and the couple has been together since 2020. Their relationship has been marked by mutual support, shared family moments, and a deep emotional connection that Berry has spoken about fondly in previous interviews.
This will be the Oscar-winning actress’s fourth marriage. She was previously married to:
- Baseball star David Justice (1993–1997)
- Singer Eric Benet (2001–2005)
- French actor and director Olivier Martinez (2013–2016)
Berry shares a nine-year-old son, Maceo Robert Martinez, with Olivier Martinez. She also has a 17-year-old daughter, Nahla Ariela Aubry, from her previous relationship with Canadian model Gabriel Aubry.
Van Hunt, a Grammy-winning singer, songwriter, and producer known for his soulful R&B sound, has kept a relatively low profile alongside Berry but has been a steady presence in her life over the past five years.
The engagement news has sparked widespread excitement among fans, who have flooded social media with congratulations and well-wishes for the couple. Many have praised Berry’s enduring optimism about love and her ability to find happiness after navigating the ups and downs of high-profile relationships.
While no wedding date has been set, Berry’s joyful appearance on The Tonight Show and her clear enthusiasm for the upcoming marriage suggest the couple is simply savoring the moment before planning the next chapter.
Congratulations to Halle Berry and Van Hunt on their engagement! May their future together be filled with love, laughter, and many beautiful moments.
