Nahla Aubry Listed as Witness in Halle Berry Custody Battle

Nahla Aubry, Berry’s daughter from her relationship with Gabriel Aubry, may provide virtual testimony due to her current school commitments. Her inclusion in the witness list—which also features Van Hunt, school staff, and various medical professionals—follows her previous legal declaration defending her mother against abuse allegations. In that statement, Nahla denied ever witnessing physical abuse, characterizing Berry as a devoted parent and criticizing Martinez’s actions as an attempt to undermine her mother.

The current proceedings center on a domestic violence restraining order requested by Martinez after a September 26 incident involving a virtual reality headset. Martinez alleges that Berry choked their son, a claim the actress firmly denies, describing the interaction as a tense moment of roughhousing. While Martinez seeks sole custody, Berry is fighting to have the restraining order dismissed and to restore their previous 50/50 co-parenting arrangement. The court’s decision to allow Maceo to testify, despite Berry’s objections regarding potential manipulation, marks a pivotal moment in the long-standing legal conflict that began with their 2015 separation and 2023 divorce finalization.
