Halle Berry’s $1.5 million new home

Halle Berry has bought a cottage in the woods to escape from the hustle and bustle of LA — and it only cost about $1.5 million! The rustic three-bedroom house is less than one hour north of Montreal, where her beau Gabriel Aubry’s family lives. According to an insider, the couple had been discussing purchasing a vacation home in Montreal. Gabriel, who had a modest upbringing, “always dreamed of owning a house in the area,” says the insider. “Gabriel and Halle both want baby Nahla to have the best childhood possible.” The gated estate, which is surrounded by 68 acres of forest, is in St. Hippolyte, Quebec, an area popular with wealthy Canadians. An insider says Halle, Gabriel, 32, and their 7-month-old daughter plan to head to their new home as soon as Halle finishes filming her next movie, Frankie and Alice, across the country in Vancouver. She doesn’t have a ring, but Halle, 42, feels closer to Gabriel than to her first two husbands. “I feel more married than I ever have,” says Halle. The 2,500-square-foot home has a mountain view and a dock on a spring-fed lake.

Demi Moore: Rock Bottom
It could have been a happy night for Demi Moore — a chance to put the most painful and humiliating period of her life behind her, even if just for a few hours. But while Demi had been nominated for a Directors Guild award for co-directing the Lifetime special Five, she spent the January 28 ceremony in hiding as she coped with the fallout from a drug incident that landed her in the hospital five days earlier. “She’s literally hiding in shame over how far she has fallen,” a pal shares.

Sarah Michelle Gellar and Freddie On The Rocks?
Could Sarah Michelle Gellar and Freddie Prinze Jr. be the next in a long list of celebrity couples heading for divorce? Although their rep denies the story, the duo, who have managed to remain largely out of the spotlight throughout their relationship, raised eyebrows recently when Sarah, 34, walked the Golden Globes red carpet solo — and without her enormous diamond engagement ring.

Tabatha Coffey’s Tough Love
“Look, I know it’s like boot camp when I come in,” says Tabatha Takes Over star Tabatha Coffey with a twinkle in her eye and a smile so broad that fans of her hit show might not even recognize her. The Bravo star admits with a giggle that channeling her inner drill sergeant is often the only way to get the job done.

Seal’s Ex: Don’t Take Him Back
The song that Seal chose for his performance on a recent episode of Ellen — Al Green’s “Let’s Stay Together” — seemed specifically designed to make his estranged wife, Heidi Klum, reconsider her decision to end their marriage. While Seal may have good reason to endear himself to Heidi — who has legions of fans and pulled in a whopping $20 million last year — former supermodel Tatjana Patitz, 45, maintains that the singer is a selfish, immature man who is prone to frightening rages. “He is not a nice person,” Tatjana, who dated Seal for nearly a year, tells In Touch.
