Berry Confusing: Is Halle Actually Engaged?

  • Are they or aren't they? Halle Berry and Olivier Martinez have remained resolutely silent over rampant engagement reports, but now insiders are attempting to play down the wedding whispers.

    First up is jewelry company Gurhan, which initially assured People that it had indeed sold the French actor the emerald-and-diamond ring the twice-divorced Oscar winner has recently been sporting on her all-important finger (see below).

    But the company is now backing away from that claim, perhaps after receiving an irate call from Berry's rep.

    "Although Halle is a great fan of Gurhan, we cannot confirm that she is wearing a Gurhan design," a spokesman sidesteps to the mag.

    According to a Berry source, she denied being engaged just last week, and TMZ reiterates that, as of a few days ago, she wasn't betrothed, with spies acknowledging that the ring was a gift from Martinez but insisting it wasn't accompanied by a proposal.

    Still, the chatty snitches add that the couple, who hooked up on the set of "Dark Tide" in the summer of 2010, are in a "committed relationship," so a knot-tying "could be in the cards."

    Earlier this week, Us reported that Halle was "overjoyed" when Olivier popped the question with the bejeweled ring.

    "She had given up on getting married," explained a confidant. "But she trusts Olivier. He makes her feel safe. He's a keeper!"

    Berry, who has repeatedly (and definitively) declared her intention never to marry again, was supposedly sold on his bond with her 3-year-old daughter, Nahla, with ex-boyfriend Gabriel Aubry.

    "Olivier has become a great father figure," said the source. "He is tender with both of them, yet he's strong and protective. He wants to take care of Halle."

    Just like he did when onetime girlfriend Kylie Minogue was suffering from breast cancer.

    Speaking of which, on Thursday, the pop queen tweeted her excitement for the pair ("Congrats to Olivier Martinez and Halle Berry!!#wedding"), although it seems her well-wishes, and everyone else's, may have been a bit premature. Maybe in the future, Halle could avoid all the speculation by wearing her accessories on a different digit.
