Halle’s Ex David Justice Exposed Her For Who He Says She Really Is, Her Ex Eric Benet Chimed In

Posted On : January 16, 2021

Halle Berry’s ex-husband and former baseball player, David Justice, once let it rip on Twitter, because he said he was simply tired of Halle not stepping up to let the world know the ‘TRUTH.’

It’s been almost 24 years since they divorced and David has stayed relatively quiet on why they parted ways. However, in 2015, after hearing of Halle’s claims in her then pending divorce from her third husband of two years, Oliver Martinez, David said he had to say something. Why? Because not only does he want to set the record straight for his own children (with his current wife), he said he could not take the ‘false perceptions’ Halle tried to paint about the men in her life, in order to make herself look good.

David also claimed that Halle not only tried to ruin his life, but that she also did the same thing to her ex-husband/singer, Eric Benet, ex-boyfriend Gabriel Aubrey, and her now ex-husband, Oliver Martinez.

David Justice Spoke His Mind About Halle

David spoke out to defend his character. After he blasted a series of Tweets about his truth with Halle, even Eric Benet chimed in…

“Reading the latest Halle Berry Reports, it wasn’t me who hit Halle causing the ear damage. Halle has never said that I hit her. It was a former Hollywood boyfriend (WS) that she told me!”

And there’s more…

“When she first reported that she had been in abusive relationships, she wouldn’t name the ‘famous’ former boyfriend (WS). She was mad at me leaving the relationship so she and her Hollywood Team just tried to destroy my character. It had to be my fault, right?.”

David Justice didn’t stop there tough…

“Yup…Me, Eric, Gabriel and Oliver were all her ‘Knight in Shinging Armor, until it ends. Then we all become the worst guys in history. Only the guys in the relationship with Halle know the real deal…there will be another, of course. He’ll be called ‘The Best’ until it ends.”

And then this…

“Just wait, Oliver…It’s coming! She insinuated that her daughter wasn’t safe around Gabriel…look it up and see the reason! Just wrong. smh.”

Eric Benet Co-Signed David’s Claims About Their Ex, Halle?

(L – R): Eric Benet, Halle Berry, David Justice

After David went off ’bout Halle on Twitter, Halle’s other ex-husband, Eric Benet, unleashed a tweet of his own, seemingly co-signing everything David claimed about Halle that day:

“My man at @23davidjustice is tweeting some truths dis’ mornin’!”

As you can see, David Justice was still pissed that Halle never once spoke out to let the world know that he was not the man who beat her, reportedly causing her to lose 80% of her hearing in her left ear. After they divorced, rumors never died down that David was supposedly to blame for that, but that simply was not true.

Pretty sure y’all caught those initials David threw in there, which were “WS.” Of course we all know that Halle dated a celebrity with those same initials – Wesley Snipes. However, we’re not 100% sure who David is referring to, but we just thought we’d point that out. Maybe he should clarify that part, just in case he isn’t talking about Wesley (yeah, okay).

David Explained Why He Called Out Halle

Anyways, Halle has clearly burned some bridges with her exes and this is what David had to say to DailyMail about his tweets at that time:

“I had to say something after reading about Halle’s recent marriage,” he said. …So many years ago, I didn’t say anything about the accusations that I abused her, but now I have three children, ages, 15, 13 and 11, two boys and one girl, and they can read this stuff and they have friends who will read it as well so I had to finally come out and say once and for all I never hit Halle Berry.

“Back then it didn’t matter, but it’s different now,” he tells Daily Mail Online. “Halle never said I hit her but she never said I didn’t either, which was disappointing.

“Let me tell you something, I was raised by a single mother and I love and respect her dearly, I would never hit a woman. Never. I am not the face of Halle Berry’s exes, I won’t be going on TV to talk about this. I just wanted to make sure my wife, my children and the rest of my family, friends and fans know the truth.

“It just makes me mad to still see the same lie being perpetuated about the source of her abuse being me. Never happened!”

***********************************
In 1996, Justice told People Magazine that the relationship wasn’t what he bargained for saying, “she wasn’t the same person I was with before we got married.”

He went on to say his wife [Halle Berry] got mad when he watched ESPN and accused him of cheating whenever she saw a picture of him with a woman who might be standing next to him. He added that Berry carried a lot of baggage from her previous relationships and always suspicious. “I’ve never known a girl who could throw a tantrum like she does.”

Did Halle Finally Cleared The Air?

Two days after David Justice called our Halle in November 2015 (and 18 years after their divorce), Halle apparently finally cleared the air that it was not David Justice who beat her back in the day…at least according to David’s eventual tweet. He thanked Halle for “for finally squashing all of the rumors in the past,that I had physically abused her,causing the hearing loss.”

It’s unclear how Halle thanked David (it didn’t seem to be publicly), but one thing’s for certain: the reputation she’s built with the men in her life – ranging from singer, Christopher Williams, to David Justice – have seemingly been kinda consistent.

We salute the incredible people and beautiful memories of that "old school". We’re not saying that every artist and every facet of the soul era was perfect, but the artists’ contributions to soul music and the old school memories of that particular time are PRICELESS.
