New York: Hale Berry does not just play a mom in movies anymore.
The 41-year-old actress had a baby girl yesterday, and "is going great," her publicist Meredith O'Sullivan told People.com the Website of People magazine. It is her first child.
The father is 32-year-old model Gabriel Aubry. The two met while shooting a Versace ad in Los Angeles two years ago. Berry told Oprah Winfrey on her show last year that playing a mother in her latest movie, Things We Lost in the Fire, helped convince her that motherhood was for her.
"I think it validated that I was meant to be a mother because every day I dealt with the character as a mother and thinking as a mother," Berry said. "It let me know that I must be a mother."
Berry won the best-actress Oscar for 2001's Monster's Ball. She also won an Emmy and a Golden Globe for 1999's Introducing Dorothy Dandridge.
Berry had said she and Aubry don't plan to marry, but feel fully committed to each other.
