CONGRATS! [Update]: Confirmed: Olivier Martinez & Halle Berry Engaged!

A couple of months ago (check archives) it was believed that Halle Berry and Olivier had gotten engaged, as had so many celebs around the holidays.

Later, reports said Halle wasn't engaged.

Now you can imagine the hesitancy of Halle's confirmation on the engagement due to the on-going issues with the father of her child Gabriel Aubry and of course the infamous statement she made on Oprah years ago when she stated she would never ever ever marry again.

At the time Oprah told Halle not to say never because things could change down the line. Halle scoffed at that idea and repeated.. Never.

Of course wounds heal after a heartbreak and it's good to see Halle and Olivier are happy and planning wedded bliss.

Olivier Martinez confirms the engagement. Additional deets below:

Via RadarOnline:

It's official! After weeks of speculation, Olivier Martinez has confirmed his engagement to Halle Berry.

The Miami Herald reported the happy news after the French actor was asked about the rumors at the opening of his new South Beach restaurant Villa Azur on Saturday night.

"Yes, of course it's true," he said when asked about the news that Star magazine broke through RadarOnline.com in January.

Martinez, 46, was also quick to make sure the man who made the engagement ring for his 45-year-old bride got credit for his work.

"There is a jeweler taking credit for doing the ring and it's a lie," he said. 'They have nothing to do with this."

The ring was in fact designed by a jeweler called Robert Mazlo from his Saint-Germain-de-Pres neighborhood in Paris.

Martinez describes him as "a real artist' who has designed for "kings and queens for many centuries".

Berry has a three-year-old daughter, Nahla, with ex-boyfriend Gabriel Aubry and has been married twice before.

Martinez was in a relationship with Australian pop princess Kylie Minogue for many years before they split in 2007.
