Halle Berry is enjoying her Christmas with her long time boyfriend Van Hunt, 54, in a tropical locale.
The Catwoman star, 58, shared a handful of vacation snaps on Instagram including one in a black one piece swimsuit that accented her curves beautifully.
She also wore a white straw fedora with a black band in the pH๏τo.
She captioned the post: ‘I can’t decide if I want to be naughty or nice this Christmas, but I am having a hell of a good time. Merry Christmas everyone!’
In the next pH๏τo, Halle wore an oversized Grinch t-shirt. She also shared a pH๏τo with Van who was wearing a Lollapalooza t-shirt.
Other pH๏τos in the set included a sH๏τ of the beach and a small, cute wild animal getting into the villa and eating their food.

Halle and Van have been dating since 2020 and the Monster’s Ball star has been facing aging and menopause head on as of late.
‘Men get Sєxy, they get grey hair, they’re silver foxes. We’re just old, and we’re haggard.’
At 58, the Catwoman star is on a crusade to change the narrative around aging for women.
‘When I found out that I was in peri and that none of my doctors had even mentioned this time of life to me, it just got me on fire to get all the information I could about myself, for myself,’ Berry told Glamour.
The more she learned about what her own body was going through, the more she also wanted to help other women in the same situation so she launched Respin, a health and wellness platform serving women throughout their menopause experience.
‘I realized if I knew so little [about menopause], I’m sure so many other women have the same little information,’ she says.
Since then, Berry has lobbied for the bipartisan Advancing Menopause Care and Mid-Life Women’s Health Act.
She also appears alongside four medical experts in MasterClass’s The Magic of Menopause, which is streaming now.

‘I was probably 10 years into it and had no clue. I thought I was going crazy. I had really bad memory loss. I had a hard time concentrating,’ Halle told the outlet about her earliest symptoms.
‘I flooded my laundry room three times, and I would leave my keys stuck in doorways. I could never find my phone. I was walking into rooms and not remembering why I was there,’ she explained.
‘These were things that were not a part of my makeup before this time period. I started to think, “Oh God, am I starting to have early onset dementia? Is something happening to my brain?”‘
The Swordfish star said that she got very agitated and found herself wanting to pick fights over the smallest things, another trait that was not like her usual self.
‘I had a hard time sleeping, and I guess sleep deprivation is a form of torture. It felt like I was falling apart at the seams, and nobody seemed to be able to relate.
‘Everybody just said, “Oh, it’s just a time of life. You’re getting old. Just deal with it.” But I didn’t feel old. I didn’t feel like it was time for me just to pack it up and wander off to pasture, but yet that’s kind of what everybody started to tell me,’ she explained.
Even when she told her doctor that having Sєx felt like she was being attacked by razor blades, he initially diagnosed it as ‘the worst case of herpes he’d ever seen.’
But it wasn’t herpes at all, it was the hormonal changes she was going though.

‘Men get Sєxy, they get grey hair, they’re silver foxes. We’re just old, and we’re haggard,’ Halle said
‘I felt crazy and alone and afraid. I felt ashamed,’ she admitted, noting that she didn’t have the words to explain what she was going through, and even once she did, she couldn’t explain away a headache on set as menopause. No one would understand.
When Halle found out everything she was experiencing could be traced back to perimenopause, she started researching and along that path realized she had a platform to help other women in that time in their lives.
In May, the A-lister joined a group of bipartisan senators to push for legislation that would allocate $275 million toward research and education for menopause.
Screaming, ‘I’m in menopause!’ on the steps of the US Capitol at the rally, Berry showcased her determination to age ‘gracefully’ and naturally.
