Halle Berry, 46, is seeking a restraining order against Gabriel Aubry, 36, with her lawyers insisting he allegedly initiated a fight with Olivier Martinez, 46, in front of their 4-year-old daughter Nahla on Thanksgiving, Nov. 22. But now, Gabriel is making a public declaration of his side of the story, and has released graphic images of his beaten face and hands.

Gabriel has issued a statement through his lawyer, Shawn Holley, implying that Olivier is the bad guy. He claims that the drama began the day before Thanksgiving, when he took Nahla to her school play. Olivier and Halle arrived and Olivier allegedly whispered in Gabriel’s ear in French, “I wish I could beat the s**t out of you right now. You’re lucky we’re in a school right now. We’re going to take Nahla right now and you’re not going to follow us.”

The next day, Nov. 22, Gabriel dropped Nahla off at Halle’s home. Although a nanny was usually the one to handle the drop off, Gabriel is claiming that Olivier came outside to meet them. Gabriel is saying Olivier lunged at him, grabbing his head and slamming it into the concrete. Olivier was reportedly furious that the custody battle over Nahla has cost them $3 million dollars so far.

Perhaps the most daming acusation is that Gabriel says Olivier threatened him, saying, “We called the cops [and when they come], you’re going to tell them that you’re the one who attacked me, or I’m going to kill you.”

Sources close to Halle say it was Gabriel who initiated the fight with Olivier. Now both sides have restraining orders.

TMZ is reporting Halle’s lawyers will be in court this week, hoping to extend their temporary order of protection indefinitely.

Get an inside look at my night with all the celebrities at the NBC after party!

I went to the Golden Globes – which is best described as the most fun night of the year in Hollywood – and let me tell you that it lived up to that claim one celebrity at a time! I stood side-by-side with Robert Pattinson, was serenaded by Keith Urban, and even had a Justin Bieber encounter!

As the show wrapped up I saw Justin headed down the foyer and attempted to walk after him to say hi. Instead I ended up dodging into the men’s bathroom where Nicole Kidman‘s husband was singing loudly as he peed. I never thought my first Keith Urban concert would be in the threshold of the tiniest bathroom in the world, but lets just say, don’t knock it until you’ve tried it! Now, with the recent news that he and Nicole just had a second baby together, it makes sense as to why he was so ecstatic!

I left the bathroom only to bump into Anne Hathaway, who was introducing Adam Shulman as “my man” to other celebrities. Halle Berry was clinging on to Oliver Martinez and couldn’t stop smiling. I headed into the NBC Universal after party where I bumped into Twilight’s Peter Facinelli at the bar getting two coronas and a white wine. Peter was texting his wife Jennie Garth the update of his whereabouts, making me instantly realize who wears the pants in that relationship. But what I thought was more funny was he has her name in his phone as Jennie Garth, not Jennie, Babe, Wife or some type of pet name. Maybe he wants to remind himself who he’s married to everytime he looks at the phone? I know I would!

Unfortunately I didn’t find the Biebs again, but I did see R-Patz taking photos at the NBC party, before he headed out to the patio to smoke with three other guys. He looked completely comfortable, and was smiling to those girls that were fawning over his presence. He took it all in stride.

A sobering moment was when I crossed paths with Matt Damon, who was arm in arm with his wife, I mentioned to him my dismay over the New England Patriots loss, where he was quick to add in his own disappointment, “Man, that was brutal.” But disappointment turned into a school boy crush as I crossed paths with Malin Akerman, Carrie Underwood and Lea Michele who all looked stunning. It was a feast on the eyes for sure!

IN SUMMARY: The Golden Globes experience is completely out of control, it is the epitome of fun and it is the one time that celebrities and the normal folk hang out together. Imagine it being a wedding, where you know everyone, the food is great, the drinks are better and every famous person you ever wanted to see was a step away. It was quite a dream night!

Halle Berry and her daughter, Nahla, went out for a stroll in London, but it looks like someone was very tired!

That’s no way to go sightseeing, Nahla! Halle Berry took a walk around London with her sleepyhead daughter on Sunday (Sept. 12) but it doesn’t seem like her 2-year-old saw very much except the inside of her eyelids! Halle, who is in town filming Dark Tide with co-star and rumored beau Oliver Martinez, kept an eye on her sleeping beauty and made sure she was bundled up and cozy. We’re guessing it’s tiring being an A-list movie star’s daughter!
