Berry seeking therapy after relationship troubles
Film actress Halle Berry said today she was seeking therapy with her husband after their relationship faced a “staggering crisis“.
The Die Another Day star said the trouble began around the time she won her first Oscar in March.
“The truth is that during the period of my most significant public success - the Academy Awards – my private life faced a staggering crisis,” she told Essence magazine.
Berry, 34, said she decided to talk about the difficulties she and musician husband Eric Benet are experiencing to help other women who are walking through the same “emotional maze“.
“All romantic relationships suffer crisis; no woman can claim otherwise,” she said.
Reports that Benet was cheating on her had violated their privacy, she said, but added that as adults they could “take it“.
She said the decision to go to psychotherapy together had brought her closer to 35-year-old Benet, whom she married in January last year.
“Eric is the first man I’ve been with who has the courage to take this journey with me. He has been fearless, and I love him all the more for it.”
