The 41-year-old star of Monster's Ball has announced that she is expecting a baby with her model boyfriend Gabrial Aubrey and her ex-husband of four years is nothing but happy for her.
'I wish Halle and her partner a healthy baby and all the happiness in the world,' said Benet.
Berry and soul singer Benet filed for divorce in 2005, despite having made plans that the actress would adopt her ex-husbands daughter India.
A glowing Halle, who is three months pregnant, has been spotted out and about in Los Angeles shopping for her new baby.
She was seen in Babystyle which sells celebrity maternity clothing and baby and children's gear.
According to TMZ, Halle's pregnancy now means that her upcoming movie Tulia starring Billy Bob Thornton and directed by John Singleton will not begin filming in October.
