‘She doesn’t cook, clean’ – Halle Berry’s ex-husband, David Justice, on why he divorced actress
Former American baseball player, David Justice has revealed why he divorced his ex-wife, actress Halle Berry.
Speaking in a recent episode of the ‘All the Smoke’ podcast with co-host Matt Barnes, Justice explained that he left Berry because she doesn’t do house chores and lacks motherly instincts.
“I’m looking at my mom, I’m a Midwest guy. So in my mind, I’m thinking a wife at that time should cook, clean, and I’m thinking OK, if we have kids, is this the woman I want to have kids with and build a family with? And at that time, as a young guy, she don’t cook, don’t clean, don’t really seem like motherly,” he stated.
Justice said that the marriage could have been saved if he had known about therapy.
He explained that he was young and naive then and had only been in one relationship before his marriage to Berry.
He, however, maintained that he is not to be blamed for the divorce, adding that the movie star was “dead wrong” for making the world believe he was the problem in their failed marriage.
Justice married Berry on New Year’s Day 1993, but they divorced on June 20, 1997.
He has since been married to wife Rebecca Justice for 24 years, the mother of his two kids.
Berry is in a long-term relationship with Van Hunt. Previously, she was married to Oliver Martinez (2013 to 2016) and Eric Benet (2001 to 2005). She has two kids: Nahla, 17, whose dad is Gabriel Aubry, and son Maceo, 11, with Martinez.
