Halle Berry reveals shocking response to boyfriend Van Hunt's proposal

Here comes the bride…eventually. After Halle Berry and Van Hunt had their first joint interview on 'Today with Jenna & Friends' on Wednesday, the couple confirmed that Hunt, 55, already proposed to Berry, 58 — but the actress has yet to say yes.

We don't.' 7 Van Hunt and Halle Berry in a selfie. halleberry/Instagram The 'X-Men' actress was previously married to former MLB player David Justice from 1993 to 1996, singer and actor Eric Benét from 2001 to 2003, and French actor Olivier Martinez from 2013 to 2015. She shares son Maceo-Robert, 11, with Martinez and daughter Nahla Ariela, 17, with model Gabriel Aubry, whom she dated from 2005 to 2010. 'I think we will get married just because, out of the people I've been married to, this is the person I should have married,' Berry told Today about Hunt.

In case you haven't heard, all the cool girls are going gaga for gingham this summer. If you're not going in on checked bedding or curtains, you're incorporating the picnic-inspired print into your look. Or, if you're like Jennifer Lopez, you're proudly wearing gingham from top to bottom—and straight-up slaying while doing so. On Mother's Day, the "On The Floor" singer took to Instagram to wish "everyone love, laughter, peace, joy and happiness," while stunning in a gorgeous gingham dress from Reformation (one of PureWow readers' and editors' favorite fashion brands). Unfortunately, the waist-snatching Tagliatelle linen dress (with a cutesy lace trim and corset-style bodice) is sold out in the pattern, but that doesn't mean you can't get her look. There are *a ton* of similar styles up for grabs at Quince, Amazon and even Nordstrom if you want to nail this summer's cutest trend—and look just as good as in the process. Here are five gingham-print dresses that won't break the bank or disappoint this summer. Want to know which buzzy products are *really* worth buying? Sign up for our shopping newsletter to uncover our favorite finds. Quince proved that you can never go wrong with a fit-and-flare dress, and this timeless-yet-trendy style hits it out of the park with its A-line silhouette. The square neckline is universally flattering, while the smocked back panel and adjustable straps guarantee a comfortable (and customizable) fit for any bust size. Add to that the fact that it's made from a lightweight and hypoallergenic linen material and features two deep front pockets, and how can you resist? Did I mention it's less than $100? $80 at tuckernuck Amazon Amazon is hiding one of the *cutest* checked dresses I've seen yet. The best part (besides the adjustable wide straps and smocked back, that is)? Well, believe it or not, the figure-flattering style is available for under $60! But that's not the only reason this buyer is obsessed: "I love all the choices they made with this dress—the slightly structured fabric that just seems to lay right and doesn't bunch up, the squared neckline, the slightly wider adjustable spaghetti straps and the girly lace trim at the bust." What they didn't mention is that it comes in multiple colorways, so you can go for a subtle hue like or embrace your inner Dorothy in a vivid blue. There's no place like Amazon... $57 at amazon Nordstrom Want to go full-on picnic core this summer? Say no more. This red gingham dress is guaranteed to turn heads, whether you're setting out your picnic blanket in the park or sipping mimosas on the patio at brunch. And thanks to its breathable blend of linen and rayon, it's totally worthy of all those warm-weather outings and then some. The lace details on the neckline and waist make it even more of a dream come true, though what I really can't get over is how good the cut is. $99 at nordstrom Saks Fifth Avenue Well, whaddya know? The same brand behind Lopez's frock is also behind this linen beauty. Just like it's designed to check-print perfection with ladder-embroidered trimming that makes it even more flattering and feminine. But is it as comfortable as it is elegant? Given that it features fixed straps, a smocked back panel *and* a concealed back zip closure, I don't doubt that it'll fit like a glove. And, yes, it has pockets! $298 at Saks Fifth Avenue Tuckernuck According to one happy buyer, this adorable midi has a "timeless gingham print [that's] elevated by a slight shimmer in the fabric," so you better believe it's anything but basic. But that's not all you have to look forward to if you make the splurge. The breezy seersucker frock boasts side seam pockets, elastic shirred cap sleeves and an empire waist that hugs at just the right place, so I have a feeling it'll make you look as good as you feel in it. $168 at tuckernuck 14 Zara Dresses You'll Want to See (& Buy) for Yourself PureWow's editors and writers have spent more than a decade shopping online, digging through sales and putting our home goods, beauty finds, wellness picks and more through the wringer—all to help you determine which are actually worth your hard-earned cash.

Halle Berry takes on commenters ‘in their feelings' about her sexy Mother's Day post

Halle Berry has a message for those critical of her steamy Mother's Day post. Berry shared a video on Instagram in honor of the May holiday and used it as an opportunity to promote her Let's Spin intimacy gel, along with her boyfriend, musician Van Hunt. 'I'm going to tell you how my Mother's Day is going to end,' Berry said in the video with Hunt last month, adding that they were in Cannes and had some of her new product that they were about to…take for a spin. 'Happy Mother's Day once again, everybody,' she said. 'I hope all of you are somewhere spinning.' 'Oh my God. I ain't never been so happy to have Mother's Day come to an end,' Hunt joked. The post drew some criticism, which Berry was asked about by Jenna Bush Hager as she co-hosted an hour of 'Today' this week. 'Other women got in their feelings,' Berry said. 'They were saying, 'Should she be talking about that on Mother's Day? Shouldn't she be with her kids somewhere?,'' Berry added. 'First of all, it's not 'Kid's Day.' It's called Mother's Day. It's Kid's Day every day of the year. That's my day. If I want to be in bed and spin with my man, then that's what I'm going to do.' Berry is the mother of two children from former relationships: daughter Nahla, 17, with model Gabriel Aubry, and son Maceo, 11, with actor Olivier Martinez.
