Halle Berry Admits Being With Boyfriend Van Hunt Is the 'First Time' She Was 'Madly in Love' Before They Got Intimate
Halle Berry talked about her love life — and didn't hold back!
“It was the first time I was madly in love before I had s--,” gushed Berry, 58, of her boyfriend, Van Hunt, during her interview with Marie Claire, which was published on September 10 to promote her survival horror movie Never Let Go.
The Catwoman star continued, "That has never happened to me, ever. Talk about one of those life-changing, beautiful experiences. It was magical, just magical."
Berry said that she "had never been that intentional with my relationships" before.
“You have to be clear with the universe [or] any old thing will find you. … The minute I started to feel like I understood myself and what I had been doing wrong, Van’s brother, who I had known for many years, came to me and said, ‘You should meet my brother,'” she shared.
The X-Men alum and the singer-songwriter began dating in 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic. For four months, the two only talked over the phone until Hunt posted a photo of Berry kissing him on the cheek on Instagram in the summer of that same year.
"We were forced to let only our brains connect and discover if we had a connection before our bodies decided to get involved," she said in an interview in 2020. "I'd never done it this way. I fell in love with his mind, his conversation."

"It’s all has gone to s--- since then. We used to try to get along for maceos [sic] sake, now you don’t want to even try and I’ve tried Oliver… you know I have."
