Halle Berry Gets Candid About Bedroom Real Talk And Finding True Love

Halle Berry Opens Up About Bedroom Real Talk

Halle Berry is as real as it gets, especially when it comes to the bedroom. The Oscar-winning actress recently shared her candid thoughts on the "Sex With Emily" podcast about why she decided to stop faking orgasms just to please her partners. "We had to get there so that he felt good about bringing us to orgasm," Berry explained. "We had to say that we did it so that he would feel good about himself. Because what is that doing? That's putting his needs before our own. And now I don't do that anymore."

"I come first like you come first to you," Berry stated, emphasizing the importance of mutual satisfaction.

The "Die Another Day" star believes that women should prioritize their own pleasure just like men do. She added, "We both deserve to have this be a mutually enjoyable experience, so we both can roll over and go to sleep because we feel good – not one snoring and the other one looking at the ceiling, going, 'What the hell?'"

Finding Love with Van Hunt

Halle Berry's personal life has been a rollercoaster, but she seems to have found her match in fiancé Van Hunt. In a 2024 Marie Claire cover story, Berry gushed about how they were "madly in love" even before getting intimate. "That has never happened to me, ever," she confessed. "Talk about one of those life-changing, beautiful experiences. It was magical, just magical."

The actress, who has been married three times before, shared that after her third divorce, she faced public speculation about her love life. "People started to say, 'What's wrong with her? She's crazy. She can't keep a man,'" she recalled. "And I would always argue, 'Who says I want to keep a man if he's not the right man?'"

A Journey of Self-Discovery

Before meeting Hunt, Berry took a four-year break from relationships to focus on healing. This sabbatical included a wellness retreat in India and plenty of therapy. "That's when I realized I was just pulling in mirror images of myself – people who were broken, people with childhood wounds that weren't addressed," she shared.

Hunt was also on a self-discovery journey, having taken a two-year hiatus from relationships. After their respective journeys, Berry and Hunt have found themselves in "the best relationship" Berry has ever experienced. "I had to face the pain of what happened to me as a kid and release my secrets. I had to get it out of my body so I could fully love myself and show up for my own children," Berry revealed, reflecting on the transformative journey that led her to Hunt.
