Oscar-winning actress Halle Berry celebrated her 59th birthday with a subtle yet pointed response to her ex-husband David Justice’s recent comments. The former baseball star had sparked controversy by claiming that Halle didn’t fit his traditional idea of a wife during their marriage, citing her lack of cooking and cleaning skills as reasons for their divorce.
David Justice, who was married to Halle from 1993 to 1997, shared his narrow-minded views on marriage during an appearance on the All the Smoke podcast. “I’m a Midwest guy, so in my mind, I was thinking a wife at that time should cook, clean, be traditional,” he said. Halle Berry’s birthday post seemed to be a clever response to these comments, showcasing her relaxed and carefree side as she lounged in the sun, enjoyed chips in bed, and savored a glass of wine.
The internet had already roasted David Justice for his sexist comments, with many calling out his outdated views on marriage and women’s roles. Halle Berry’s birthday post only added fuel to the fire, as she seemed to be living her best life without worrying about traditional expectations.
