Appearing on “The Jennifer Hudson Show” in February 2023, Meagan Good shared her how her friend and “personal showbiz hero” Halle Berry supported her amid her painful divorce from ex-husband DeVon Franklin in 2021. The two have known each other for quite some time and, according to Good, happen to share the same make-up artist. “We share the same makeup artist, shout out to Jorge back there,” Good said. “And he was saying, she,” referring to Berry, “was wanting to know [if] she should reach out to me when I was going through my divorce. So I was just like, that’s really sweet that there was a lot of support and love.”

Berry, after all, knows a thing or two about divorces. Per Popsugar, the “Catwoman” star has been married and divorced three times — first to baseball player David Justice, then to R&B singer Eric Benét, and finally, to French actor Olivier Martinez, with whom she shares her son Maceo. Good told Hudson that she first met Berry at a restaurant on the week of her wedding to Franklin back in the summer of 2012. “I went over to her and … I was like, ‘I love you so much, you’ve been such an inspiration to me. I know you’ve gone through so many things publicly and privately and in your career, and you’re just so strong,'” Good recalled telling her idol, noting that the exchange quickly turned emotional. Two years after that interaction, Berry started following her on Instagram, and the rest is pretty much history.
