Halle Berry marked her 60th birthday on Friday, expressing gratitude to her fans for their well wishes. The Oscar winner shared a radiant selfie on Instagram, holding up a birthday card and captioning the image, "Thank you from my heart for all the birthday love. I’m grateful to still be here!!"
Thousands of followers, including Jamie Foxx, offered their birthday greetings in the comments section.
The birthday post followed a separate set of images Berry shared the previous day, which featured her in a low-cut lace nightgown. Underneath those photos, the actress wrote, "Today.... I don't give a f--k," indicating a carefree sentiment as she entered a new decade.
In the more provocative photoshoot, Berry was seen without a bra, playfully sucking on a chocolate-covered strawberry. Another image showed her embracing her fiancé, musician Van Hunt, sharing a kiss while eating a peach.
Earlier this year, Berry discussed her approaching milestone birthday with the TODAY show, sharing her perspective on aging. "I feel different than I thought I would feel at 60," she said. "You know, what is 60? What is age anymore? It's a feeling. I feel stronger, smarter, wiser, more myself, more in control, I'm the best version of myself at the moment and I'm so glad that I'm still here and healthy."
Berry's disciplined approach to her health includes a strict diet to manage her diabetes, diagnosed at age 22. She previously told Women's Health that she cut out sweets and overly sweet fruits. Her diet now consists of lean proteins like steak, lamb, and chicken, along with leafy greens.
Her fitness routine, which she undertakes five days a week, includes yoga, strength training, cardio, and martial arts. According to her personal trainer, Berry incorporated weightlifting into her routine after entering menopause, shifting from primarily cardio and bodyweight exercises to heavier weights to build muscle mass.
