On one of the latest episodes of the All the Smoke podcast, Justice went deep on his relationship with the Academy Award-winner, breaking down how they came together, their marriage, and the eventual demise of their relationship. In one moment in particular that has gone viral, Justice specifically reveals what “hurt the most” in the fallout of their relationship.

“Halle had a relationship with a gentleman who hit her on the side of the head,” he explained, adding that she allegedly lost some hearing after it. Berry has never made the name of this man public, and while Justice says he understands this decision, people have, in turn, associated this rumor with Justice “for years.”

“For people to think, ‘Oh it had to be David Justice,’ because the only person they associated her with was me … she said it was a former boyfriend, I’m not a former boyfriend, I was her husband,” he clarified. “From ’96 until even today, sometimes I’ll see someone on social media, ‘He hit her in the head’… that’s just a quick google search.”

Justice then directs his feelings towards Berry, who he says “never” said it wasn’t Justice. “She let the world think it,” he said. “She didn’t come out and say … ‘I’m not gonna say who it was but it wasn’t David.’”

He added that he did not appreciate that, and that she was “dead wrong” to “let the world” think it was him.

“I thought she should’ve handled that better,” he continued.

As we reported, Berry and Justice first met in 1992, and were married from 1993 to 1996. At the time, Berry filed a restraining order against Justice, citing fear for her “personal safety and well-being.” Justice publicly denied the incident at the time, saying he posed “no threat to Halle.”
