Halle Berry To Pay $250K In Child Support To Ex Gabriel Aubry

Posted: June 20, 2012

Halle Berry's big payout to ex Gabriel Aubry

Halle Berry‘s ex and baby-daddy Gabriel Aubry was after big bucks in the custody battle over the ex-couple’s child, and while he didn’t get what he asked for, he’ll have to settle. For $250,000 a year.

TMZ originally reported back in May that Aubry was asking a judge to force Berry to cover his $500,000 attorney bill as well as provide him with $20,000 a month in child support for the couple’s daughter, Nahla. Aubry’s request for an increase in child support was put off, much to his chagrin, because the schmuck didn’t properly fill out the paperwork. He said that he needed to money to provide a proper environment for 4-year-old Nahla, though it may have been a response to Berry’s desire to move with Nahla to Paris, which would screw his request pretty soundly.

Well, the judge has apparently ruled on the side of Aubry, as the courts have just ordered Berry to pay out roughly $250,000 a year in child support. That’s the $20,000 a month Aubry wanted, in order to “provide a proper environment” in which to raise Nahla. Or something.

No word on whether or not Berry is expected to cover his legal costs.

Prior to the judge’s decision, there actually wasn’t a child support order in place. Now that there is, don’t expect Berry to lay down the fight. The war rages on, with Berry to take to court on whether or not she can take Nahla and move to Paris. It’s hard to say which way the judge will lean, but with Aubry’s history of (alleged) child neglect and endangerment, it’d be hard to believe any judge would side with him.

    No doubt Halle doesn't mind spending the money on her child and its pennies for her. But it sure seems like she doesn't want to support him in any way and I heartily agree with her.

    There is no such thing 250,000 being chump change. No one in the free needs 250,00 a year to take care of any child. The judge is a joke, as the entire child support criminal cabal…..Halle should gotten a better attorney. Who has heard of a mother, who has majority custody of a child, pay support to the father!

    This makes absolutely no sense! What is going on?

  6. Another worthless wussie "man". He should hang his talentless head in shame and crawl back under whatever rock she accidently kicked over to find him. Eeyewwwwwww……..

  7. I wondering if she regret having w baby by him now.

  8. What a sad male – a man wouldn't do this. Does he have any pride, what about the father providing for his child for the little while she might be with him. He's nothing but a gold digger! Kathleen is correct – just a wussie! I guess that was all he could get since they weren't married. I've never heard of the non-custodial parent getting year round child support. He needs to get up off his apparently worthless butt and get a job!

    I don't believe this story because when did Aubrey supposedly get custody of her daughter?

  10. It happens to rich men all of the time, Men and women are equal in America or do we have a double standard when it comes to a wealthy women having to pay, can we just be fair?

    Actually in cases of child support the judge often looks at the "lifestyle upkeep" of the child. Basically they say "how will the parent with less money offer the child the same lifestyle the higher earner can afford them." If he had 50/50 support the amount would be even higher since the judge would look at sustained lifestyle for a split time period. Do I think the system is right in how they judge those cases…no. but we can thank previous precedents for what we have.

  12. I am wondering if she regret having a baby by him now.

  13. I am wondering if she regret having a baby by him now. Now I am starting to wonder does he really love his child and want to really be in his daughter`s life or is it all about the money. I guess we will never really know for sure.

    This makes me ill – I sure hope it's not true. No REAL man, who loves his daughter and had a healthy relationship with his child, would even WANT money to be a good father. All these people jumping on Halle's case, she got out of the relationship because she KNEW what he was. And it's showing itself clearly now. That baby only needs from him, love, adoration, attention, care, discipline and to be put first when he can. He doesn't NEED Halle Berry's money, to care for that little girl. Simply put, he's a piece of SHIT! Shiftless, trifling gigolo bastard! That baby is nothing but BUCKS for him, I can see him rubbing his hands together now, anticipating the cash… IF… this is true. The way this world is going, it probably is.

  15. If the roles were reversed, no one would be saying a thing, I agree with the judgement, men have had to shell out enormous amounts of cash in these situations for ages!

    women take men to court ALL the time, and when a man takes her to court women complain about it.

    Good luck in any court it is a mans court these days. Custody is going to the men even if there is abuse the judges don't want to see evidence to prove abuse they just take the kid from the mother. Halle…I hope you have a good lgal team and if you find out which fathers right group is chaging the judges please use that star power to tell the world.

  36. What a SNIDE report this is. This person is totally Halle and against the father of this child. One needs to remind that Halle is the one who said this man was the perfect man and a wonderful father. He was wonderful till their split. Which was why? This is one who did not cheat on her. The reporter of this needs to remember that "alledged" is just that. Halle instigated that in response to him and his new girlfriend. Yet it was ok for Halle to have other men around her daughter and she refers to them as a "father" this little girl has a father and she needs to remember that.
    And all couples ask for the other to pay their court costs, reporter of this nasty article needs to remember this is the norm and to not act like it is totally against Halle. Not much, 20,000 bucks a month compare to what others have paid. She got off that is all he asked for.

  37. Kathleen, it is Halle who should hang her head in shame, like you said she kicked over the "rock" and she has now kicked over many more. She claimed she loved this man and she claimed he was a wonderful father. Seems to me she got the baby she wanted and then has tried very hard to get him out of her life as she refers to this child as hers and to other men as this girls father. I remember Abrey kept asking her back, what did he do and so on, no one ever find out why. I believe she is the one with committment problems, she tried to have him charged with child endangerment when he had his girlfriend watching the girl and that did not work, . Halle is the one with the problems, not him. Talentless?? Like hell, this guy makes tons of money!!

  38. She is not supporting him, he makes his own money, was a top model before he met her and still is. Funny, the men have to pay the women and they can make their own money, men in this line of work and in sports pay a hell of a lot more than $20,000 a month on child support. I would like to know why she stated he was so wonderful and a fantastic Dad and they would be a family and then she met another man and BOOM! She drops him and off she goes, now he is the bad one?? WHY??

  39. He has never stopped modeling.

  40. He has never stopped modeling.

  41. He has never stopped modeling.

  42. He has never stopped modeling.

  43. The bible still say the man should be the provider and does not say no where the women should be the provider of the family but it does not change the law of the system so oh well it does not matter what I say anyway because God gave us all freewill.

  44. I just hope Halle Berry learned from this and choose to be with someone in her circle next time so no men can take her for her money again.

  45. my mom and dad managed to us kids on 20,000 and we turned out just fine. we all went to college and got degrees. what the hell does he need 250,000 for anyway? another hollywood child, lost before she is found.

  46. and if he's still working as a TOP MODEL, why the hell does he need 250,000 from her? is he not capable of earning enough money to support a child, so he has to STEAL from her? my folks raised us kids on 20,000 a year, and we did just fine. we all got degrees from college, and we all are happy well adjusted adults. I guess if you live in lalaland, tho, you need 100 bucks just to wipe your kids ass. pretty pathetic example of a man, that's all I got to say.

    Why is he getting child support if he does not have full custody and she does? Am I missing something.

  51. Rachel Lindsey
    Jun 21, 2012

    If she had full custody which she does and he made more money and she did not have the level of income she does than yes I could see him paying that sort of support, but he does NOT have custody of that kid and he makes a damn good living on his own. I ask why a MAN who is doing alright on his own would even try to be taking and I do mean taking a hand out from a woman.

  52. Rachel Lindsey
    Jun 21, 2012

    The reason this judgement is not fair is because he does not have CUSTODY of the child. When women get money it is because they have full custody of the child/ren.

    I hate this type of hate, and it has been proven the women often lie about abuse and child neglect and threaten to leave the country just to make sure the dad has no contact, she is getting off cheap compared to most rich men.
    Both need to be civil and share "their" daughter and not make fake claims or run out of the country.

    How did he get child support, when he doesn't have sole custoday or primary? I was under the impression he got the every other weekend kinda custody. Apparently she has a crappy attorney or she is the jack up parent of the two….

    well considering i am an apache Indian and so not a Christian got to disagree with you Tina and thank you for at least having a comment that was to the point and not trash talk !!

  57. It happens to men all the times many men dont get a chance to see their children,its fair because the partner who has the most money typically has to pay.

  58. YOU DON'T KNOW THE WHOLE STORY BEFORE YOU GO AND JUDGE SOMEONE!! GET THE FACTS FIRST!! YOU ONLY HEAR WHAT THE MEDIA IS TELLING YOU!!!

  59. I hope lesson learned from what happen to Halle Berry if a man do not have nothing to offer to put on the table then he does not get to sit down at it either. I hope other women learn from this and not mess with a man that does not have nothing to match to what she has to set on the table. I feel men should stay in their circle too to keep them from losing what they worked so hard for too.

    She's hot looking but has a temper too. Was he really that bad? I have my doubts…she can't decide what she wants a man for love or a man for sex.

  61. Bitch go change your tampon obviously the judge saw something different if it was the man paying you wouldn't be saying shit

  62. It's not basic necessities when you have a certain lifestyle asshole and she has the the means and the obligation to maintain that lifestyle jerkoff

    Thats what I was wondering when did she lose custody of her daughter?

  65. Edgar, it's based upon income of BOTH parents…consideration is also given to the type of lifestyle that a child is accustomed to. While if a person is bankrupt or suffered a serious loss of income, and the rate is adjusted appropriately, many factors play a role. For example, Mr. Aubrey still works. Does he need chidcare to allow him to stay employed? Many of the factors that affect everyday people and impact upon a court's decision for child support apply here. If he travels while he is working, and no doubt Ms. Berry does the same, then a full-time nanney or caretaker would be needed.

    When you add these costs up, and look at it as a percentage of income and the number of children involved when making the support decision, Ms. Berry is paying the same percentage as anyone else in the state of jurisdiction. However, 15% of say $100M is different than 15% of $70K (what I paid by the way). And my payment included support and a percent for childcare until the child was 12 years old.

  66. Rachael:
    It's probably joint custody with physical custody during specific periods of time. For instance, my ex paid me during ther summer months since I had my kids for a 6-7 week period. Support was abated by one half if I had them beyond a five consecutive days, and I didn't pay at all beyond that, i.e., the money that was sent to her was given back to me. During that extended 6-7 week period, she got the kids alternate weekends.

  67. Kimberly:

    I can't speak for the state of California, but the courts have become better in considering both parties and the validity of evidence of regarding abuse. What kills me is that both sides claim abuse, either party may or may not file incident reports with law enforcement agencies, and expect that will be enough to garner custody or restrict parental rights of either party. While any verified abuse must (and should be) taken into custody, I unfortunately have seen where parents use the legal system as a means to play "tug of war" with children to get back at the other party. All that does is send confusing signals to the child involved and demonstrate that it's the parents in most instances that need counseling.

  68. Lin:

    I'm with you…she has some serious issues involving men, i.e., David Justice, Eric Benet, now Aubrey, and who knows else. She has some "daddy issues" and this is reflecting on her choice in men and the relationship aspects. What she really needs is serious counseling and a resolution of these or any other issues that impact her relationship with men before she goes off and gets married again.

    Our laws are so stupid. I don't think people should have to pay any support to another person except for child support for the person raising a child. It is her money and she earned it. He is a model and I'm sure he had a great environment before they met and who said she had to have a pampered pad to be cared for properly? So rediculous and almost more than some make in a year. Stupid laws.

  70. It funny how when its a man its a shame but when it a women y'all have a celebration. I thought y'all Wanna be equal. As katt williams said her ass got (kevin federlined) smdh!

  71. Yes it is ashame!!!!! If he wanted a better lifestyle for his daugter and loved his daughter so much then it should have motivated him to work harder for a lifestyle like Halle Berry.

  72. and another thing she the one had full custody of Nahla and not the baby daddy.

  73. and another thing Halle is the one who has full custody of the child

    She started this crap trying to remove him from any visitation. Nanny said he slapped her while she was holding Nalia and she fell down with Nalia in her hand and have a bump on her head.
    Social worker found that was not true. Halle also says he calls Nalia the n word. All lies why did this judge give him support because is based on income in California.
    He has been put through hell with this woman. He is not a sperm donor maybe Hallie should have got a sperm donor. Leave this man alone he has been fighting over a year for some time with his daughter.
    He is the victim not Halle she hired lawyers knowing she would get her way because she is Hally berry but in California if you keep coming to court with bs every other month.
    They will make the parent pay the price wasting the courts time with emergency hearing that were denied because the child has to have some kind of injuries she is a crazy women all the men she dated said the same thing.

    NO PARIS WILL BE ALLOWED UNLESS GABBI GIVES HIS PERMISSION.
    You can’t take your child out of State without the permission of the other Parent.

    well I know hes 36 and there cant be much demand for a 36 yr old male model. age gets us all. even Halle will not be able to play the bombshell roles much longer. She will have to transition to the beautiful mature womanly parts. Thats just life. I still think he wants a little bit of a meal ticket because he would get that support until the child is 18 if im not mistaken (not positive on california laws)

  82. That turns my tummy. Im going thru.the same. .always stealing. Prehaps Not that much in childsupport. But seem like he has anger problems. Wut he got her for anyways. Seem like he said she was always wanting money. How he gonna fix his mouth to ask. Thats just using someone overworking them ame trying to prey on that person.

    true a hot mess and joint custody

  95. All you women screaming at the unfairness of it all and now you see how rich men feel when this is done to them. NO!
    NO WHERE IN THE WORLD DOES IT TAKE 20K A month to raise a child. And while the courts are recognizing the lifestyle factor there should still be a ridiculous amount of money point considered for one child.
    That's to much money and more than enough to support both child and non-custodial parent together which is wrong.
    If a Judge decides this is a 20k A MONTH child then he should split that amount of support equally between BOTH PARENTS….
