Halle Berry, 59, Reveals She’s Stepped Back from This Intimate Bedroom Activity
Halle Berry, 59, recently got very candid about her approach to intimacy during a chat on the Sex With Emily podcast. The Oscar-winning actress opened up about how her views on sex have changed over the years, emphasizing that she no longer fakes orgasms just to make a partner feel good.
Berry explained that in the past, many women felt pressure to pretend satisfaction. “We had to say that we did it so that he would feel good about himself,” she said, recalling the old mindset. But for her, that approach is long gone.
Now, she prioritizes mutual pleasure and insists that both partners should feel equally satisfied. “I’m like, ‘No, I c** first like you c** first to you.’ We both deserve to have this be a mutually enjoyable experience where we both can roll over and go to sleep because we feel good. Not one snoring and one looking… [like], ‘What the f*** am I doing?’”
The discussion comes as Berry celebrates her engagement to longtime partner Van Hunt. The couple has been together since April 2020 and previously said that marriage wasn’t necessary for their relationship (via Complex). Berry has been married three times before, to David Justice, Eric Benét, and Olivier Martinez, and is a mother to two children, Nahla Ariela Aubry and Maceo-Robert Martinez.
Berry’s career has been marked by versatility, moving from action films to drama and superhero roles. She made history with Monster’s Ball, becoming the first Black woman to win the Academy Award for Best Actress, and later starred as Storm in the X-Men franchise and as the lead in Catwoman. Her filmography also includes hits like Die Another Day and most recently Crime 101, where she appeared alongside Mark Ruffalo and Chris Hemsworth.
