She opted against selling off pictures of her baby daughter to the highest bidder. But at last, the very first photos of Halle Berry with Nahla Ariela Aubry have been released!

The 41-year-old “Catwoman” actress was seen carrying her little girl around in Los Angeles on Thursday (July 17) – with her mother, Judith Ann, nearby to help out with her granddaughter.

Nahla, which means “Honeybee” in Arabic, was born on Sunday March 16th, 2008.

She’s the first child for the Oscar-winning actress and her 32-year-old model boyfriend, Gabriel Aubry.

New mom Halle Berry is engaged to her boyfriend Gabriel Aubry after he gave her his grandmother’s ring.

“Gabriel felt the time was right to propose. He gave her the family heirloom because he wanted to show her how much she means to him, and how she will be accepted into the Aubry family,” a source close to the couple said.

“The ring belonged to Gabriel’s grandmother – it was her engagement ring.”

The ‘X Men’ actress, 41, was snapped flashing the diamond ring in Hollywood this past weekend.

Berry gave birth to the couple’s first daughter, Nahla Ariela, in March.

Halley and Gabriel, 32, started dating in November 2005.

Oscar winner HALLE BERRY is set for her most harrowing film role to date – she’ll play a Caucasian racist in FRANKIE + ALICE.

New mom Halle Berry has been getting baby tips from her pal, Access Hollywood host Nancy O’Dell.

“We’ve e-mailed, and she’s loving motherhood,”said Nancy, who gave birth last June to daughter Ashby Grace

“She is loving every minute of it, couldn’t be any happier,” O’Dell says. “She’s going to be such a great mom.”

41-year-old Berry gave birth to daughter Nahla Ariela Aubry last month, and Nancy has “sent her a whole page e-mail about things I wish friends had told me,” the TV host adds. “I said, ‘I wish people had given me this advice. They didn’t, so I’m going to give it to you.’ She was appreciative, really appreciative.”

Berry’s daughter will be a fine addition to kids’ play dates, O’Dell Says, though she joked that she was holding out for the Hollywood beauty to have a son.

“I’m glad she had a girl, so the girls can play, but the other side of me went, I bet that would be a very attractive young boy to set up with my girl,” O’Dell tells People.com. “I was pulling for either one.”

It looks like we’ll be seeing pictures of Halle Berry’s post-baby body before we see pictures of the baby. Berry and Gabriel Aubry’s baby, Nahla, was born March 16 and has yet to make an appearance in the pages of any celebrity weekly.

One magazine editor said that “photos are being shopped, but nothing’s been settled,” so we’re left to wonder if Berry will bring Nahla to the Halle Berry Celebrity Golf Classic on April 27. At the very least, the actress will be revealing her post-baby body.

According to Us Weekly, Berry wants to be back in fit form for the tournament. “She’s thrilled to start exercising again,” the source added of the star, whose dialed-back pregnancy fitness regimen includes yoga, swimming and light weights.

Still, for Berry, nothing these days tops spending time at home. “Halle loves being a mom,” the source told the magazine. “She is so happy.”

Halle Berry has given her baby girl a name that means ‘Honeybee’ in Arabic.

The 41-year-old actress and boyfriend Gabriel Aubry have called their newborn daughter Nahla Ariela Aubry.

“We didn’t have a name picked out until just before we left the hospital,” she told a US entertainment show. “For us it was hard to name the most important person in our life until we met her.”

Berry gave birth to baby Nahla on Sunday morning, at the Cedars Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles, California. It is her first child with model boyfriend Aubry.

Michael D. Cooperson, the associate professor of Arabic at UCLA, confirmed to People magazine that the name means ‘Honeybee’.

Gabriel’s sister, Eugenie Aubry, said she was delighted at the news.

“I was so happy when I found out,” she told People. “It’s been a long time since we’ve had a new baby in the family. It’s very exciting.”

Eugenie, who lives in Canada, said the Aubry family were planning a big bash in Montreal to welcome their newest family member.

“We’re going to have a big party for them,” she said. “My father is so happy right now.”

She added that she was thrilled to hear Halle had been learning French and wanted to bring Nahla up to be bilingual.

“I’m a Quebecer and it’s great that she is learning how to speak French,” Eugenie said. “I’m glad that the little one will speak French too.”

Halle began dating Aubry in November 2005, after meeting him at a Versace photoshoot.

She made no secret of her wish to become a mother and previously said she would adopt if she was unable to conceive naturally.

In October last year she told US talk show host Oprah Winfrey she planned to try for a second baby as soon as the first was born.

Hollywood star Halle Berry has revealed the name of her newborn daughter: Nahla Ariela Aubry.

Nahla – Berry’s first child with boyfriend Gabriel Aubry – was born Sunday.

“Nahla is the Arabic word for ‘drink of water’,” Pamela Redmond Satran, the co-author of The Baby Name Bible and Cool Names for Babies said. “Ariela is related to the Hebrew Ariel, which means ‘lion of god.’

“Nahla is one of those names that is occasionally found among people of African or Arabic descent, but isn’t commonly used in any particular culture,” she adds.

Both names also have a connection to the silver screen.

“Nala was the name of Simba’s lioness mate in Disney’s The Lion King, so it kind of has an African flavor as opposed to a genuine African pedigree,” Satran tells Us Weekly magazine.

A day after tot’s birth, Aubry’s sister, Eugenie, said, “It’s been a long time since we’ve had a new baby in the family. It’s very exciting.”

Berry first announced her pregnancy in September last year, when she was three months along.

The aunt has spoken – and she’s delighted.

“I was so happy when I found out,” Eugenie Aubry, 36, tells PEOPLE about the new baby girl born on Sunday to Halle Berry and Eugenie’s younger brother, Gabriel Aubry.

“It’s been a long time since we’ve had a new baby in the family,” said Eugenie. “It’s very exciting.”

While she has yet to meet her brand new niece, the Canadian resident was thrilled to hear that new mom Halle has been practicing her language skills.

“I’m a Quebecer, and it’s great that she is learning how to speak French,” Eugenie says. “I’m glad that the little one will speak French, too.”

No doubt, the newborn will have plenty of Quebec cousins to practice with, because mom Halle, 41, and dad Gabriel, 32, try to visit Gabriel’s 64-year-old father, Gérard, and eight brothers and sisters as often as possible.

Another rendezvous is just around the corner, according to Aunt Eugenie – who says the Aubry family is planning a welcome party in Montreal for its newest member.

“We’re going to have a big party for them,” she says. “My father is so happy right now.”

Hollywood babe Halle Berry says she is unlikely to marry boyfriend Gabriel Aubry – because she already feels “married” to him.

The 41-year-old actress – who is set to give birth to her first child later this month – insists her relationship with Aubry is stronger than her two failed marriages.

She said: “Gabriel is a wonderful person and I am just happy I’ve found someone really special to have a baby with. In a way, I feel more married than I ever have in two marriages.”

The X Men beauty was previously married to US baseball player David Justice and singer Eric Benet.

Halle met Gabriel while shooting a Versace advert in Los Angeles in November 2005. The pair went public with their relationship in February the following year.

Halle also believes she will never feel the urge to walk down the aisle again.

She said: “I will never marry again. I have a good healthy love for myself and love in my life. I no longer feel the need to be someone’s wife and I don’t need the validation of a marriage certificate.

“Gabriel and I have decided to redefine marriage for ourselves.”

Coty’s latest celebrity manifesto: Give them Halle.

The beauty giant has signed Academy Award-winning actress Halle Berry to a scent development deal, which will involve the star developing a fragrance portfolio and appearing in its advertising.

“Halle is an iconic actress and symbolizes beauty to many generations,” Steve Mormoris, senior vice president of global marketing at Coty Beauty US, told WWD at the Personal Care Products Council’s annual meeting here. “She adds another dimension to the celebrity fragrance market. Halle has always been a little more mysterious, not quite as open with her personal life as some other stars. Her fragrances will allow her to present another facet of her personality to her fans.”

The first Berry fragrance products are expected to launch globally in spring 2009, Mormoris said. They will launch in what Coty terms “mid-tier” department stores, such as J.C. Penney, and then will move into the mass market as well. “We’re committed to developing a project that will bring luxury to the mass market,” said Mormoris. “We want to bring vitality to that market, with projects that consumers find compelling.”

Generally, such celebrity deals include $3 million to $5 million up front, with a royalty of about 5 percent, according to industry sources. Mormoris declined to discuss the terms of Berry’s deal.

While star fragrance deals are not being announced at a pace like they were a few years ago, Mormoris emphasized that he does not see a slowdown in the celebrity beauty category.

“It’s clear to us at Coty that the celebrity segment is alive and well,” he said. “It’s constantly being reinvented and refreshed. These fragrances are entertainment, but in a different way.”

Coty’s extensive celebrity portfolio also includes the scent brands of Jennifer Lopez, David and Victoria Beckham, Sarah Jessica Parker, Kimora Lee Simmons, Gwen Stefani, Celine Dion, Kate Moss and Tim McGraw.

Curly hair, swirly henna hands, curvy belly: Halle Berry has us going in circles!

The 41-year-old Academy Award-winning actress was spotted at the Four Seasons in Beverly Hills on Sunday. Sporting Shirley Temple ringlets and a henna tattoo normally reserved for brides (hmmm… might someone be reconsidering her “no more marriage” stance?), Halle looked lovely and well-rounded. Perhaps it’s all in preparation for the “circle of life” she and model boyfriend Gabriel Aubry will experience when Halle gives birth to the couple’s first child, due in March?

“Circular” logic aside, Berry is busy getting ready for baby in other ways. “I have this little teddy bear that I diaper,” she recently told InStyle.

Halle Berry is sporting some impressive mommy to be cleavage these days and she isn’t shy about showing it off.  Halle was in London for the premiere of her latest film “Things We Lost in the Fire”.  She was in a low cute blue dress that could barely keep her boobs from running ahead to get some popcorn and good seats.
