Reports surfaced recently that gorgeous actress Halle Berry has ended her relationship with her babydaddy, model Gabriel Aubry, but what was more surprising was that Berry allegedly "kicked him out." A source told People magazine that Berry kicked the French-Canadian out of their house months ago when she realised that their four-and-a-half year relationship was not going anywhere and because "he wasn't able to pull his weight in the relationship and she wanted to move on."

Berry's representative confirmed the split saying that they "have been split for some time" but states that their separation is amicable and the ex-couple will remain close and friendly for the sake of their two-year-old daughter, Nahla Ariela.

Aubry released a statement not too long after the announcement saying that his and Berry's biggest priority is the welfare and happiness of their child. Despite the kicking out rumours, Aubry still spoke fondly of his ex-girlfriend, "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."

Gossip site TMZ reports that the duo is consulting a family lawyer to work out a financial deal and 50/50 custody of Nahla but no details have been finalised.
