Geographical and cultural issues are said to be the main causes of Halle Berry and Olivier Martinez's divorce. According to E! News, Olivier who is a French doesn't want to leave France and feels like living in a "fish bowl" when he stays in the U.S.

Multiple sources told the news outlet, "Olivier has spent a lot of time in France and working overseas. They have had long stretches of time apart and both seem happier when they don't have to deal with the other. They have a lot of differences culturally and as far as lifestyle goes. Things didn't jive between them and they grew apart."

Of why Olivier doesn't want to move to the U.S., a source pointed at the press attention to the couple. "Olivier loves France, he wanted to be in Paris, he was not a fan of the paparazzi attention that came with being with the relationship," said the source. "He felt that if they lived in Europe, they would have a lot more privacy. Being here with Halle felt like they were living in a fish bowl."

"They had an incredibly passionate bond with one another, but with that comes big highs and lows. They fell madly in love with one another, but at times, it did feel like everything was against them," an insider told the news outlet. "Whether it was Halle's difficult relationship with [Nahla's father] Gabriel [Aubrey], which caused a huge amount of upset for the two of them, or geographical issues."

A source close to the "X-Men: Days of Future Past" actress said, "They have struggled for a long time and been living separate lives. They waited it out for awhile, seeing if things would improve, but they didn't." Some sources added, "Now they are both ready for a clean break and to move on with their lives."

Halle and Olivier divorced after two years of marriage. The two met in 2010 on the set of "Dark Tide". They tied the knot on July 13, 2013 in France. Their son Maceo-Robert was born on October 5, 2013.
