The fall out continues from the Thanksgiving Day brawl between Halle Berry‘s boyfriend, Olivier Martinez, and her ex, Gabriel Aubry, who’s also the father of her 4-year-old daughter, Nahla. Contrary to initial reports that Gabriel started the fight, the French-Canadian model has obtained a restraining order against Olivier, claiming that the Unfaithful actor set into motion the events that led to the holiday smack down by telling him during Nahla’s school play the day before, “I wish I could beat the s**t out of you right now. You’re lucky we’re in a school right now. We’re going to take Nahla right now and you’re not going to follow us.”

Gabriel alleges that things really got crazy the next day when he dropped Nahla off at Halle’s house and was greeted by Olivier rather than the nanny, who usually handles the custodial hand-off. According to TMZ:

“Gabriel claims Olivier said, ‘We need to talk.’ Gabriel says he walked toward his car to close his door when Olivier jumped off the stairs and knocked Gabriel to the ground and started brutally beating him, screaming that Gabriel cost them $3 million to fight the custody war (Halle’s failed move to take Nahla to Paris).

Gabriel says Olivier took his head in his hand and slammed it on the concrete driveway.

According to the declaration, as Olivier assaulted Gabriel he screamed that they were going to move to Paris and Gabriel had better move there too or Olivier would kill him.”

When the cops were called, Gabriel claims Olivier told him, “you’re going to tell them that you’re the one who attacked me, or I’m going to kill you.” But apparently, the 36-year-old failed to mention the threats to police when they arrived right after the fight. I can’t with these three…this is like a really bad novela, except two of the main characters speak French.
