It's the third divorce for Berry, 49, who has a 2-year-old
son with Martinez. The couple cited irreconcilable differences,
according to celebrity website TMZ.com.
"It is with a heavy heart that we have come to the decision to
divorce. We move forward with love and respect for one another
and the shared focus for what is best for our son. We wish each
other nothing but happiness in life," the couple said in a joint
statement.
Berry in 2002 became the only black actress to win an Academy
Award for a lead role, clinching the Oscar for her performance
in "Monster's Ball."
She met Olivier, 49, best known for his role in the 2010
sexually charged thriller "Unfaithful," after splitting with
model Gabriel Aubry after a five-year romance. Olivier and Berry
married in 2013. She was previously married briefly to baseball
player David Justice and singer-songwriter Eric Benet.
