They say that your 40’s are the best years of your life! Think women over 40 don’t have a place in Hollywood? Take a look at a hit series like Desperate Housewives. After reading this list, you’ll see that it simply isn’t the case. While The Moviefone Blog and other sites have continuously come up with 40 actresses over 40 that are killin’ it on the big screen, Cupid has narrowed it down to our top 10. We wanted them all to be sexy, successful and usually single, but recently settled down. Why? Because many of our favorite celebrity couples are stars who were notoriously in the tabloids for being single. While there’s no doubt that every woman on the list is sexy and successful, let’s highlight the celebrities who prove that you don’t need a man (or woman!) by your side to make it big.

According to UsMagazine.com, one of the obstacles she faced was her rapidly changing figure. “My ever-growing belly was posing a constant challenge!” she says. “What I could do was getting more limited, so the role I play is so different from what it could have been, due to my surprise pregnancy.” Berry said she has learned over the years to have a better work-life balance. “As I’ve grown older I’ve really learned, out of necessity, the importance of leaving work at work,” Berry said.

Becoming a parent is one of the greatest accomplishments in life. For celebrities who have already achieved so much, having a child is a blessing. They become more relatable to the public–and are seen in a completely different light. From this point on, they are captured walking around town with the baby stroller and diaper bag–and they wouldn’t have it any other way. Here is a list of the latest celebrity parents, and soon-to-be parents:

There are more legal documents in Halle Berry’s life these days. After a brutal Thanksgiving Day fight that ended with Berry’s ex Gabriel Aubry being arrested, Aubry claims that it was Berry’s fiancé Olivier Martinez who started the fight, according to People. Written in Aubry’s application for a restraining order against Martinez, Aubry claims that “Mr. Martinez jumped me on the side of my body… continued to punch me at least two or three times, kicked me in the ribs with his knee or foot, and took my head in his hands and slammed it to the concrete driveway.” Aubry also alleges that Martinez yelled, “When you see the judge, you’re going to tell him you’re going to Paris, or I’m going to kill you.” Because of the fight, Aubry has a restraining order against him to stay away from Berry, Martinez and his daughter Nahla. All this stemmed from a court battle between Berry and Aubry over Nahla. Berry hoped to move to France with Martinez and Nahla, but a judge ruled against Berry. With regards to Aubry’s injuries, he states, “I ended up suffering a fractured rib, multiple bruises on my face and my forehead, an area under my left eye, and three areas in my mouth required stitches.”
