The actors first crossed paths while filming Dark Tide in South Africa in 2010. Two years later, Holly and Olivier got engaged, marrying on July 13, 2013. However, their relationship ended after three years, with their divorce proceedings lasting until 2023. Despite being officially single, the two are still embroiled in a contentious legal battle over custody of their 10-year-old son, Maceo.
Recently, Martinez was seen in Los Angeles, and it was difficult to recognize the once-dashing Frenchman who frequently walked the red carpet with Berry. He appeared much changed, having lost significant weight, cut his dark hair short and gray, and grown a three-day stubble. His casual outfit included a faded tie-dye T-shirt, an Adidas jacket, olive cargo pants, and worn sneakers, with gold-framed aviator sunglasses concealing his eyes.
Since the divorce from the Oscar-winning actress, Martinez’s career has not thrived, though he secured a substantial settlement and receives significant monthly child support. Holly recently accused him of refusing to attend co-parenting therapy, which she paid for at a cost of $200,000. She also claimed to have spent another $200,000 on legal fees for their disputes, including covering his share of $80,000. The actress expressed that her ex-husband relies on her financial support, making her work harder.
In a new lawsuit, Holly shared emotional messages exchanged between them. She believes Olivier’s attitude worsened after her new relationship with singer and producer Van Hunt. “I’m very sorry that we have these disagreements. I had high hopes for us.
I always hoped we could do more for Maceo and work together, like we did before Van came into the picture. Since then, everything has fallen apart. We used to try to get along for Maceo, but now you don’t even want to try. I’ve tried, Olivier, but you just keep getting angry, and I don’t know why,” the actress wrote.
