Halle Berry shared a rather cheeky snap on Instagram over the weekend

SCANDAL ROCKS HOLLYWOOD: Halle Berry's Ex-Husband David Justice Reveals Shocking Demands for a 'Motherly' Wife

The drama never ends in Tinseltown, and this time it's none other than Oscar-winning actress Halle Berry's ex-husband David Justice who's stirring up controversy. In a jaw-dropping revelation, the former baseball star has confessed to wanting his ex-wife to be a "stay-at-home mom" while he pursued his MLB career.

According to sources close to the matter, Justice, 59, made these bombshell comments on the podcast "All the Smoke," where he reflected on his past relationship with Berry. The 1990s couple was married for four years before divorcing in 1997.

Justice's Shocking Admission

In a cringe-worthy moment, Justice admitted that he had doubts about Berry's motherly skills while they were together. "If we have kids, is this the woman I want to have kids with and build a family with?" he asked himself back then. He continued, "And at that time, as a young guy, she don't cook, don't clean, don't really seem like, motherly."

The baseball star further revealed that he later realized his expectations were unrealistic and that he should have sought therapy to work through their issues instead of abruptly leaving the marriage.

Fans Slam Justice for His Audacity

Berry's fans and supporters quickly came to her defense, slamming Justice for his outrageous demands. "Men and audacity" was a common phrase used by fans on social media platform X (formerly Twitter). One user wrote, "Imagine expecting Halle Berry, the first Black actress to earn $20m for a movie, the #1 most desirable woman in the world for decades, the first Black woman to win an Oscar, to stay home to cook and clean."

Another fan joked, "David Justice tryna make HALLE BERRY cook & clean is CRAZY work. TF was he thinkin?"

Berry's Response

While Berry hasn't publicly commented on her ex-husband's shocking comments, sources close to the actress reveal that she's still reeling from his words. Insiders claim that Berry is "hurt" by Justice's admission and feels that he's trying to shift the blame for their failed marriage.

Justice's Apology (Sort Of)

In a half-hearted attempt to make amends, Justice later revealed on the podcast that he was "upset" with his ex-wife for not clarifying that he wasn't the abusive ex she had previously spoken about in an interview with People magazine. He confessed that he "deeply hurt" her by leaving their marriage suddenly.

Berry's Career and Personal Life

Meanwhile, Berry has been keeping busy with her acting career and personal life. The actress recently celebrated her 59th birthday with a sultry Instagram post featuring a skimpy brown and white thong bikini from Monday Swimwear.

She also took to the platform to share pictures from her exotic holiday, where she was spotted hand in hand with her long-term partner Van Hunt. Fans couldn't get enough of Berry's stunning physique as she sizzled in a black bikini underneath a matching open beach dress.

In light of Justice's recent comments, Berry has decided to set the record straight about their marriage and his expectations from her. In an Instagram post, she simply wrote: "Phew…! cooking, cleaning and mothering."
