Halle Berry's ex Gabriel Aubry 'arrested after brutal brawl with her new fiancé Olivier Martinez which left both in hospital'
His face bruised and battered, a scuffed and swollen hand held out of harm's way, Olivier Martinez headed home from hospital on Thursday afternoon.
The French actor was injured during a 'brutal fight' with his fiance Halle Berry's ex lover Gabriel Aubry, which left both men hospitalised and saw Aubry charged with misdemanour battery.
The shocking brawl came as Aubry dropped off his daughter Nahla at Halle's house on Thanksgiving morning.

Olivier reportedly tried to speak to Aubry about the ongoing custody dispute between him and Halle.
After Olivier said to Gabriel 'We have to move on,' the Canadian model is said to have pushed the French actor and tried to punch him before a full blown fight broke out.
Gabriel and Halle - who split in 2010 - have been at odds ever since she tried to convince a judge to allow her to move to France with Nahla, a move which was recently blocked by the courts.

Onlookers told TMZ the fight was 'brutal', with the website describing a blow-by-blow account of the melee.
A source said: 'Olivier blocked [Gabriel's punch] and the punch struck him in the shoulder instead... Gabriel then pushed Olivier to the ground, a struggle ensued, ending when Olivier pinned Gabriel to the ground.'
Olivier performed a citizen's arrest on his love rival, before police were called to the scene and arrested Aubry for battery. He was charged upon his discharge from hospital and released after meeting the $20,000 bail.
Andrew Smith, Commanding Officer, LAPD Media Relations and Community Affairs Group, told People: He [Aubry] was booked for a private persons arrest for battery.'
Calm before the storm: Halle and Olivier headed out for lunch at Angelini Osteria in West Los Angeles prior to the fight on Wednesday
A judge then issued an emergency protective order - meaning Aubry has to stay 100 yards away from Halle and Olivier, as well as his daughter Nahla.
Gabriel was taken to hospital for his injuries after suffering a broken rib, bruises to the face and a possible more serious head injury, with there being conflicting reports as to whether he was left unconscious following the bloody brawl.
Olivier has a potentially broken hand and neck injuries., and arrived at the same Los Angeles hospital for treatment as Gabriel around an hour after him.

Harrowing: The strain was clear to see on both Halle and Olivier's faces as they drove away from the hospital
It is unclear whether four-year-old Nahla witnessed the fight between her father and future stepfather.
However sources told TMZ that Halle rushed her daughter inside to prevent her seeing the dramatic fight.
However, the youngster was later seen being carried in her mother's arms as the anxious looking actress arrived home with Olivier following his discharge from hospital.
After a brief stop at home, the pair headed to a friend's house nearby.

However, details about the argument are unclear because both men were speaking in French.
Booking sheet: Gabriel Aubry was arrested on a misdemeanor charge of battery and bail was set at $20,000
Gabriel, a French-Canadian model who lives and works in Los Angeles, had petitioned the court to stop Halle's plans to move to France with Nahla.
He argued that the move would give him limited access to his young daughter.
However, the Cloud Atlas actress countered the privacy laws are stronger in France and would keep Nahla safe from the paparazzi.

She said at the time: 'Our issues were never about fighting for her. We both know a child needs both her parents. But what I want to say about it is sometimes, as a couple, you reach an impasse.
'We needed a court and a judge to help us work out some of the delicate issues, and I'm so happy we've arrived at that place – because for her sake, this is the best way. We both love her more than life.'
Halle, 46 - who split with Gabriel in 2010 - and Olivier, had put their wedding plans on hold while the actress focused on her custody battle.

Nahla in the middle: The youngster has been at the centre of the bitter feud
Aubry filed legal papers in December 2010, seeking formal recognition as Nahla's father, as well as joint legal and physical custody.
At the time, a representative for the actress said: 'Halle has serious concerns for her daughter's well-being while in the care of her father for any extended period of time.'
But a spokesperson for the model soon responded: 'The fact is that Gabriel is a caring father who shares custody of Nahla.'

In happier times: Gabriel had spoken about his wish to give Nahla a brother or sister while he and Halle were together
Just 24 hours prior to the vicious spat, Halle, Oliver and Gabriel all attended an early Thanksgiving celebration in Los Angeles with Nahla.
While Halle and Olivier picked up Nahla from school and drove her to the party, her father took her home with him on Wednesday.
The Oscar-winning actress looked strained as she left the event carrying a feathered headpiece and jacket belonging to her daughter.
In her custody battle, Halle claimed Los Angeles was not the ideal place for her daughter to grow up, due to the constant glare of the paparazzi.
She has insisted that it was not an attempt to keep Nahla's model father away from her.
The Monster's Ball actress made a rare comment about her custody battle with Gabriel to InStyle magazine this month.
'There is turbulence, but this too shall pass,' she said.
Halle and Gabriel split in April 2010 after more than four years of dating, and she soon began a relationship with actor Olivier. They confirmed their engagement in March.
Halle has previously said being a mother to little Nahla has made her feel 'complete' as a person.
She explained in an interview with Essence magazine: 'I'm complete. I have more to offer my craft because [my daughter] makes me indelibly better every day.'
Prior to their split, Gabriel had even spoken about giving their daughter a sibling.
He told People: 'Nahla needs a sibling. I think it's important. I've never known anybody who's had a single child [and] I've always been around big families. I believe in big families.'

Gabriel Aubry has been arrested for battery following a 'brutal' Thanksgiving Day brawl with Olivier Martinez.
The model - who is the father of Halle Berry's four-year-old daughter Nahla - reportedly attacked the actress' French fiance Olivier on Thursday morning when he was dropping the child back at Halle's house - but came off worse in the fight.
Police were called to the home and Gabriel was taken to hospital for his injuries after suffering a broken rib, bruises to the face and a possible more serious head injury, TMZ reports.

Olivier has a possible broken hand and neck injuries. He arrived at the same Los Angeles hospital for treatment as Gabriel around an hour after him, according to the website.
The drama went down inside Halle's home at around 10am after Gabriel dropped off their daughter Nahla in a custodial handover.
Martinez apparently approached Aubry and said: 'We have to move on,' - a reference to the recent custody battle which blocked Halle from moving to France with Nahla.
But Aubry responded by allegedly pushing Martinez and throwing a punch at his face.
Sources told TMZ the fight was 'brutal' with the website describing a blow-by-blow account of the melee: 'Olivier blocked [Gabriel's punch] and the punch struck him in the shoulder instead... Gabriel then pushed Olivier to the ground, a struggle ensued, ending when Olivier pinned Gabriel to the ground.'

Protective: Gabriel was concerned his relationship with his daughter would be damaged if she moved to France
A source told gossip website TMZ: 'Gabriel went nuts,' in front of Halle and other witnesses. It is not clear whether Nahla witnessed the fight.

Comment
This is so sad because a child is involved. Ovilier got a lot of nerve trying to take this little girl's daddy away from her. This is what happens when a man gets involved with a woman who already has children, he has to deal with the baby's daddy.
It's too bad Halle Berry jumps from relationship to relationship. She changes men like she changes underwear. Every time I look she's with a different man. Her marriages to David Justice and Eric Bennett didn't last, what makes her think her future marriage to Olivier would last? I feel real sorry for the little girl who is caught in the middle of this kaos.
If Olivier did threaten to kill Aubry, why would Halle Berry put up with and be with a man who threatens to kill her little girl's daddy? As the child grows up, the child will resent the person who took her daddy away.
HandsomeMan on the point we need to be there for the family no matter the drama
Yo she's a stupid chicken head, just because you have some money don't mean a thing, prime example, this dumb chick wow. She don't even know how to conduct herself in a relationship, I bet you she'll be getting beat up by the new boy toy soon, hahahahahahahaahah!!!!! and giving him $20,000.00 a month too. dumb, dumb, dumb, dumb, dumb!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
