Halle Berry’s fiance Olivier Martinez has accidentally confirmed the pair are having a boy.
Chatting to reporters on the red carpet of a film festival in France yesterday, Olivier, 47, let slip that the pair’s first child would be a son.
“My son will be an American, but I remain French,” he said.
“I remain a Frenchman in America, but I adapt to American culture. I feel good there — but I’m still a foreigner.”
Halle denied she knew the sex of the baby, but said she was surprised to be pregnant at 46.
“I feel fantastic. This has been the biggest surprise of my life to tell you the truth,” she said.
“I thought I was kind of past the point where this could be a reality for me. So it’s been a big surprise and the most wonderful.”
While we’re sure Halle and Olivier are overjoyed to be expecting a boy, one person isn’t so thrilled. Halle’s daughter with ex-boyfriend Gabriel Aubry, five-year-old Nahla, has been praying for a baby sister.
“Every night, we do our prayers,” Halle said. “She says, ‘God, please bring me a bunk bed and a baby sister.’ And I say, ‘I can do one of those things, I know for sure. The other one, we’ve got to keep praying on.’”
