Halle Berry and Olivier Martinez have received a huge number of congratulatory messages on the social networking site, Twitter, including one from Martinez's ex-girlfriend, Kylie Minogue. The pint-sized Australian pop singer took to her Twitter feed to send out a message that read simply "Congrats to Olivier Martinez and Halle Berry!! wedding."
Yesterday (January 11, 2012), reports began to surface in the media that the Martinez and Berry had become engaged, after dating for just over a year. The French actor has dated a number of high profile women in the past, including the actress Mira Sorvino and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, as well as Kylie herself. If either Rosie or Mira have congratulated the couple, they have done so via more private means than Twitter. Kylie and Olivier met in 2002 and dated until 2007. During this time, Australian pop princess underwent treatment for breast cancer and after they split, acknowledged the support that he had given to her at the time. Unconfirmed reports also surfaced that he had been unfaithful to her. Berry was previously in a relationship with Gabriel Aubry, with whom she has a three year-old daughter.
Proving that couples can remain friends after a relationship ends, Kylie Minogue may well have taken a leaf out of Demi Moore's book. Demi famously continued her friendship with Bruce Willis, the father of her children, when their relationship drew to a close - even when she began dating the much-younger ASHTON KUTCHER.
