People Are Praising Halle Berry After She Shut Down Critics Of Her Intimate Mother's Day Video In Bed With Van Hunt
Halle Berry, aka Mother, is shutting down the prudes and the killjoys. The Academy Award-winning actor isn't just Mother to insufferable fans of B.A.P.S., Storm from X-Men, and distressed wigs like me — she's an actual mother to two children: Nahla, 17, and Maceo-Robert, 11. So, it makes perfect sense that Halle celebrated Mother's Day last month, but when she posted an intimate video in bed with her boyfriend, Van Hunt, in honor of the holiday, some people were in their feelings about it. "Women, other women, got in their feelings," Halle said while cohosting Today with Jenna & Friends. Halle said people were asking, "'Was it right for her to be in her bed talking about spinning with her man?' Yes. And they were saying, 'Should she be talking about that on Mother's Day? Shouldn't she be with her kids somewhere?'" When an Instagram user said, "That's not what Mothers Day is all about 🤷🏻♀️ more like Valentine's Day or your birthday," Halle defended her choice to post the video.

I hope you had a wonderful Mother's Day !❤️" Halle wrote in response. Halle reiterated her position on Today. "First of all, it's not Kid's Day. It's called Mother's Day." "Kid's Day is every day of the year. That's my day. And if I wanna be in bed and spin with my man, then that's what I'm gonna do." If you're asking yourself what "spin" means, Halle implied that "spin" refers to sex, a reference to the Let's Spin Intimacy Gel from her company Respin, which was shown in the original video. Her product is part of advocacy for perimenopause after she was misdiagnosed.

'We have sex. It's the most natural thing we do. Men do it. Women do it.' Halle further explained that people "saw nothing" in the video anyway because they were under bedsheets. "It should be okay to celebrate that and not be criticized for talking about love. In a time like this, in a world like this today, I'm sorry, we should talk more about loving each other and not fighting." "So whoever didn't like it, so what," Halle finished. Halle received praise for her bold stance on sexuality and how she chose to celebrate motherhood. One user wrote, "I love an unapologetic queen! Go Halle!" "Agreed! The US over sexualizes everything. They are happy in love, and have a beautiful family. That should be celebrated and children honestly need to see what a happy relationship looks like because a lot of people never got that growing up and it shows," another user wrote. This person said, "Let's just call it what it is. Hating. It's very common, just like the people doing it. Live your life unapologetically ladies. The rest of the world is!" "This isn't Lucy and Desi folks it's 2025! The clutching of the pearls, the outrage 🤦🏾♀️. Same folks that don't want their kids exposed to certain books, s*x education, but really get to clutching when 🤰🤰🤰🤰🍼🍼👶👶🏾," someone else added. Finally, someone said, "Girl you spoke truth to power!!! It's natural it's beautiful and it's how we became mothers!!! I went and took a spin with my husband after seeing this clip. lol" What do you think about Halle Berry's choice to show the racy video on Mother's Day? Let's discuss in the comments.

Van Hunt's proposal to Halle Berry 'still floating', while she defends 'spinning' Mother's Day post
Halle Berry opens up about her relationship with Van Hunt, her thoughts on marriage, and reactions to a controversial Mother's Day post Halle Berry recently discussed her relationship with boyfriend Van Hunt, the couple's views on marriage, and the controversy surrounding her Mother's Day post in an appearance on Today with Jenna & Friends. In the candid interview, the Oscar-winning actress revealed that while her relationship with Hunt is thriving, she is taking her time with marriage, despite Hunt's proposal. Berry and Hunt, who have been together since 2020, shared a playful moment when Hunt revealed that he had already proposed to Berry. "I put out the proposal, and it's still on hold," Hunt joked, adding that the proposal was "floating out there" while they wait for Berry's decision. The 58-year-old actress responded with a laugh, explaining that marriage isn't a necessity for them to validate their love. She emphasized that both she and Hunt had been married before, and after multiple marriages, they are in no rush. 'We don't feel like we have to get married to validate our love in any way,' Berry said, adding that when they do marry, it will be because they genuinely want to, not out of obligation. Regarding when they might tie the knot, Berry assured fans, '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.' She hinted that it would happen 'soon,' but reiterated that their bond does not need a wedding certificate to be strong. Berry also addressed the backlash she received following her sultry Mother's Day post, in which she promoted her Let's Spin intimacy gel alongside Hunt. The video, caused a stir with some commenters questioning why Berry wasn't spending the day with her children. 'It's not 'Kid's Day,'' she responded, emphasizing that she had every right to enjoy her day how she saw fit. Berry, who has two children from previous relationships, said she believes it's important for mothers to take time for themselves and have their own celebrations. Though critics were vocal about the post, Berry remained firm in her stance, saying, 'If I want to be in bed and spin with my man, then that's what I'm going to do.' While Berry's relationship with Hunt is a key part of her life, she has consistently emphasized that her children and family are her top priorities. However, she also revealed how fulfilled she feels in her current romantic relationship, saying that it makes her a better mother. 'I feel happy in my life romantically, as a mother, as an artist,' Berry reflected. 'I'm a much better mother in this circumstance than I would have been had I stayed in a romantic relationship that didn't serve me.' As for her thoughts on marriage, it seems only a matter of time before the couple takes the next step, but on their terms, and in their own time.
