Halle Berry is willing to give up her acting career for the sake of her daughter’s safety, a source tells RadarOnline.com is exclusively.
The Cloud Atlas star is fed up with the negative trappings of fame and believes her celebrity status has de-stabilized Nahla’s upbringing.
Halle, 46, believes the only thing she can do is take a hiatus from Hollywood and hope that the time off keeps her and her family out of the tabloids, says the source.
“Now that a court has ruled Halle can’t move to France permanently, she feels she’s left with no alternative but to quit her career,” the source tells RadarOnline.com.
“It may seem pretty dramatic, but Halle doesn’t know what else she can do to stop the tabloids writing about her.
“In the last few years, she has worked on only a handful of films, so she can dedicate most of her time to Nahla.
“She also thought that would make her less of a target for the paparazzi, but with all the drama going on in her personal life that hasn’t been the case.
“Halle thinks that Nahla’s upbringing has been far from ideal. Her picture is taken by photographers all over the world whenever she’s with her mom, and Halle would hate to think that Nahla may come to believe that’s a natural occurrence.
“But she made a life as an actress, an Oscar-winning one too, so it would be hard for her to just quit,” the source opines.
As RadarOnline.com previously reported, Berry's baby daddy, Gabriel Aubry, was granted a restraining order against her fiance, French actor Olivier Martinez, on Monday.
Gabriel, 36, got into a brutal fight with Olivier, 46, over the Thanksgiving holiday, leaving him hospitalized and arrested on suspicion of misdemeanor battery.
Halle was so worried over her family's safety, that she was planning to seek an emergency restraining order to keep Gabriel away, but Gabriel obtained his own civil restraining order in a Los Angeles courthouse against Olivier.
