Halle Berry is "proud" of Rihanna.

The 'X-Men' actress - who has previously spoken about the abuse she and her mother suffered at the hands of their partners - is relieved the 'Umbrella' hitmaker ended her relationship with Chris Brown after he assaulted her in February.

She said: "Any time a woman frees herself from that kind of bondage and that kind of situation I'm proud."

Meanwhile, Halle has denied she and long-term boyfriend Gabriel Aubry - with whom she has 19-month-old daughter Nahla - are planning to have another child, insisting she is too busy with working on her new perfume range.

When asked if she was contemplating having another baby, she told TV show 'Access Hollywood': "Not my real baby, but my career baby and its called Pure Orchid. I have to say it's pretty."

Halle recently admitted she used to be attracted to abusive men because she regularly saw her father attacking her mother when she was growing up.

She said: "My mother was a battered woman and that was my childhood for a good chunk of it.

"Early on in my life, I made choices, and I chose men that were abusive because that was what I knew growing up."

However, she underwent therapy and learned what to do if and when a relationship became violent.
