Halle Berry & Eric Benet Reach An Agreement.
Oscar winning actress Halle Berry and her estranged husband Eric Benet have reached an agreement regarding alimony and child support according to sources who work in Los Angeles' Superior Court. The R and B singer, who received treatment for a sex addiction after cheating on the Catwoman star filed a motion to nullify the prenuptial agreement signed the day before the couple wed. "Signing a prenuptial agreement the day before and the day of a wedding is always bad news," says UCLA Law Professor Jack Munroe."
A prenup should be signed weeks, if not months before a wedding is to take place. A day before and the day of is cause to make the agreement invalid". In closed court proceedings last week, Eric Benet's lawyer argued in front of a judge that Eric and his daughter India, whom Halle claimed to have adopted have grown accustomed to a lavish lifestyle including cooks, maids and shopping sprees for India and her friends. Although Berry has no legal ties to the child, she has in public referred to her as a daughter.
Berry's lawyer countered that Eric signed the prenuptial agreement in good faith and has no claims Halle's income during their marriage. At the urging of Berry, her lawyer decided to settle with Benet as the animosity was taking a toll on his daughter India. A source close to Halle says "Halle does love that little girl. Eric was withholding Halle from India and Halle was heart broken.
India has taken her fathers side on this and Halle does not want to create friction between her and the girl." Although court documents were sealed, Berry agreed to purchase a 5 bedroom, $4 million dollar home for Benet to share with India. "She agreed to give Eric $20,000 a month in support and will pay for his lawyers.
Her mother is not happy about this considering how he treated her throughout the marriage but she thinks she did what is best for India". Lawyers for Benet and Berry did not return our calls at press time. The actress' publicist says she does not comment on the private lives of her clients. Benet's spokeswoman was unavailable.
