Actress Halle Berry just recently became a mother.
The 41-year-old Berry gave birth to a baby girl in Los Angeles on Sunday (March 16) and "is doing great," her publicist told People.com.
It's Halle's first child.
The father is 32-year-old model Gabriel Aubry. The two reportedly met while shooting a Versace ad in Los Angeles two years ago and have been inseparable ever since.
According to the Associated Press, Berry told Oprah Winfrey on her show last year that playing a mother in her latest movie, "Things We Lost in the Fire," helped convince her that motherhood was for her.
"I think it validated that I was meant to be a mother because every day I dealt with the character as a mother and thinking as a mother," Berry said. "It let me know that I must be a mother."
While there's no current plans for marriage between the two, Berry said they are fully committed to each other.
