As For This Marriage, The Breakup Was Justice

Compiled By Staff Writer Dan Web

So sad about the marital disconnection between actress Halle Berry and Atlanta Braves outfielder David Justice.

But Star magazine says the arrangement was a “sham” to begin with.

“I’ve been living a lie,” the mag quotes Berry as saying. “David was the love of my life. I just can’t understand why I wasn’t enough for him. I told David that I wanted to build a life. But all he was interested in was other women.”

The breakup was announced shortly after Justice was picked up, but not arrested, by police in a rough section of West Palm Beach, Fla.

Earlier, in a nightclub called Diamond’s, a waitress said that Justice “was having the time of his life. He was splashing out $10 at a time for table dances and hitting on all the girls.”
