Fun in the sun: Halle Berry plays with her daughter Nahla, two, on the beach near their Malibu home


After splitting from boyfriend Gabriel Aubry, Halle Berry isn't wasting any time moping around.

Following a week in New York, the Oscar winner looked like she was revelling in being back in the company of her two-year-old daughter Nahla as they played on the beach near their Malibu home.

Berry's secret split from Aubry several months ago was made public last Thursday as the actress stepped out solo on the red carpet at a charity event.

The actress's representative confirmed over the weekend 'they have been split for some time, but remain friends and committed parents to their daughter'.


Berry spent Sunday afternoon walking on the beach with Nahla, pointing out passing boats and animal wildlife as they played on the shore.

Little Nahla looked adorable in a green vest and white shorts, while her mum showed off her impressive figure in a pair of denim shorts and a three quarter length T-shirt.

Berry jetted back to LA on Saturday evening after completing the Revlon charity 5k walk/run to raise money for breast and ovarian cancer in Manhattan earlier that day.

Looking in good spirits, a smiling Berry spoke to the 40,000 participants beforehand, paying tribute to her friend Stephanie, who is fighting the disease.

She said: 'I can't tell you how happy I am to be here.

Amicable: Berry and ex-boyfriend Gabriel Aubry before their split

Contrasting reports claim both Aubry or Berry was the one who decided to end their relationship.

A source close to Berry told America's People magazine: 'They’re very amicable in healthy ways because of their child. Her main concern is for the health and happiness of her daughter.'

The source also shot down claims Berry had found a new boyfriend after she pictured holding hands with a mystery man outside a theatre in New York on Friday night.

The insider added: 'They’re old friends. The photographers were chasing them so he just instinctively grabbed her hand.'

First to confirm they had parted ways, Aubry hit out the 'wild inaccuracies' concerning their split after reports claimed he had left Berry after finding himself attracted to other women.

He said: 'I am sad to say that Halle and I have decided together to separate at this time.

'She is, and will forever be, one of the most special and beautiful people that I have ever known, and I am certain that we will continue to have only love and respect for one another.

'(Nahla's) happiness and well-being are the most important thing for both of us. Please respect our privacy during this very difficult time.'


Busy: Berry took part in the 5K Revlon Run/Walk For Women on Saturday morning, before having lunch with a friend and heading back to the west coast


Berry and Aubry started dating in November 2005 after meeting on set of a Versace photoshoot.

Berry was previously wed to baseball star David Justice for four years in the early Nineties and soul singer Eric Benet.

The actress and Benet split in October 2003 after two years of marriage - just 18 months after she won an Academy Award for Best Actress in Monster's Ball.
