Hollywood's Halle Berry to pay former husband child support

After years of marriage, Halle Berry and her husband, Oliver Martinez, have finalised their divorce after a bunch of hiccups and doubts.

According to a Los Angeles court, the actress will have to pay $8,000 every month as child support for their nine-year-old son Maceo, 'E!Online' reported. The custody case, which was filed in the Los Angeles Superior Court on August 21, declared that the former couple will share joint legal and physical custody of their son.

The agreement indicates that the ‘Catwoman’ actress will pay for Maceo’s tuition, school uniforms and school supplies as long as he is in private school, $8,000 to Martinez per month as child support as well as “4.3 per cent of any income she receives above $2,000,000.”

For the custody agreement, it seems the two have worked out a schedule that gives half of the week, Monday to Wednesday, to one parent and the other half of the week, Wednesday to Friday to the other, with alternating weekends. Time is also set aside to “make up time” if work commitments create an inconvenience.

Berry will also be responsible for the cost of Maceo’s extracurricular activities, including soccer, which is specifically named in the documents. Berry is also footing the bill for Maceo’s private school tuition, his extracurricular activities, his health insurance and his therapist.

According to 'E!News', Martinez’s legal team provided the following statement: “The public documents filed in the matter should speak for themselves. The parties wanted more clarity with regard to Maceo’s schedule and each of their respective time with their son. The judgment was reached in mediation with the parties and their counsel.”
