"  Olivier Martinez and Halle Berry  Congrats are in order for Halle Berry \u2014 she&amp;#039;s expecting her first child with fianc\u00E9 Olivier Martinez! The actress is roughly three months along, and the couple already knows it&amp;#039;s a boy.  TMZ was the first to break the news \u2014 with some additional commentary. &amp;quot;It&amp;#039;s definitely worth noting ... Halle is 46, and Olivier is 47.&amp;quot; Okay, uh, noted? Women are having children in their forties these days, TMZ. Then, People reached out to Berry&amp;#039;s rep for confirmation, who offered a generic, &amp;quot;I can confirm that Halle and Olivier are expecting a child.&amp;quot; Then, of course, came the &amp;quot;sources close to the couple,&amp;quot; who also must be interviewed in cases like this when a simple confirmation just won&amp;#039;t satisfy the public&amp;#039;s thirst for information.  &amp;quot;Halle is feeling great. It&amp;#039;s a very exciting time,&amp;quot; the source told People. We&amp;#039;re glad to hear that she&amp;#039;s feeling well and definitely agree that having a baby is a happy occasion. The source then went on to add, &amp;quot;This happened naturally \u2014 everyone is really happy.&amp;quot; Andddd that&amp;#039;s where we have to throw a flag on the field. Yes, it&amp;#039;s true that most women don&amp;#039;t have children at the age of 46, and it is statistically harder to conceive at that age. Still, does it matter how Berry got pregnant? When a woman over the age of 40 announces she&amp;#039;s having a child, why does everyone stop and wonder whether or not the baby was conceived naturally? The way People&amp;#039;s source made sure to mention that &amp;quot;this happened naturally&amp;quot; is a telling remark on how society tacitly views this method as being preferable to IVF.  It really doesn&amp;#039;t matter how Berry and Martinez conceived their child; nor should it be public knowledge unless the actress herself wants to discuss it. What matters is that two parents who wanted a child have been blessed with one, and we wish them nothing but happiness \u2014 and some privacy. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
