Halle Berry seeks sole custody of 10-year-old son Maceo, claiming her ex, Olivier Martinez, is interfering with his educational and therapeutic needs.
Halle Berry is seeking sole custody of her son with ex Olivier Martinez. In new court documents obtained by Fox News Digital, Berry is seeking the change, 'In light of Respondent’s continued violations of Court Orders, unilateral decision making, and interference with the parties’ minor child’s best interests.' Berry admits in the filing that she 'is not perfect,' but is 'always seeking to prioritize the best interests' of their son, 10-year-old Maceo.
She claims Martinez has interfered with educational and psychiatric assessments for Maceo, including tutoring after he had fallen behind in school, using soccer as a leverage in negotiating custody terms, dismissing therapy for the 10-year-old and co-parenting therapy, and not sticking to custodial time agreements. ' actions and lack of cooperation with respect to Maceo’s psychological and educational needs have been detrimental to Maceo’s health and welfare,' the filing says.
Maceo was not immune to behavior which worsened over the time that refused therapeutic intervention for Maceo. Maceo acted out upon his return' from his father’s allegedly becoming 'angry and combative' toward Berry, which worsened with longer periods in his father’s custody, Berry claimed. ' actions and lack of cooperation with respect to Maceo’s psychological and educational needs have been detrimental to Maceo’s health and welfare.
The former couple finalized their divorce last year after an eight-year court battle, with the actress paying nearly $8,000 in monthly child support for their son, Maceo, per court documents obtained by Fox News Digital at the time. She was also set to pay Martinez 4.3% on any income she makes that exceeds $2 million, and was to be responsible for their son's private school tuition, 100% of his extracurricular activities and his health care.
Berry’s new filing reiterates that point, stating that 'the parties be specifically enjoined and restrained from discussing their respective positions on child custody issues or the contents of these proceedings with Maceo.' Fox News Digital's Lauryn Overhultz contributed to this report.
