Halle Berry has never been afraid to celebrate getting older on her own terms, and as she marked her milestone 60th birthday on Friday, the Oscar winner proved she is feeling more confident than ever.

Halle has made no secret of the fact that she sees growing older as something to embrace rather than fear.
In recent years, the actress has become an outspoken advocate for women's health in midlife, using her platform to talk candidly about menopause. "Down that path of life, perimenopause, everything gets dry, like I said, and so intimacy and sex can become painful," Halle shared, "And so many divorces happen around this time of life because women become unable and unwilling to have sex because it’s so painful."
Halle admitted that her "biggest problem: during perimenopause was concerns that she "could not have sex anymore". However, this worry has since changed. "I am juicy like a peach. My sex life is back batting 100," she said.
She launched her women's health platform Respin in 2025, evolving the lifestyle brand she originally founded in 2020 into a community focused on supporting women through perimenopause and menopause.
For Halle, entering her seventh decade also comes at a particularly happy time in her personal life.
She has been dating Grammy-winning musician Van since 2020, and the couple regularly share glimpses of their relationship on social media. Halle is also mom to daughter Nahla, 18, whom she shares with former partner Gabriel Aubry, and son Maceo, 12, from her marriage to Olivier Martinez.
