"They are keeping it amicable now," the source added. "She is okay."
In an interview with Yahoo! one year ago, Berry opened up on what it was like having a spouse who's French.
"I have definitely changed as a result of being married to a French husband," the actress said about Martinez. "French women would not put their sweats on and run out to the market. So I care more about what I wear out of the house, because if not, he calls me out on it."
