Halle Berry insists she is doing ''OK'' in the wake of her recent marriage split from Olivier Martinez. Berry and husband Olivier Martinez - the father of her son Maceo, two - separated last month but the 49-year-old beauty is trying to get through her sadness and finds it helpful to ''focus on others''. Speaking at a charity event in aid of domestic violence prevention and intervention organisation Jenesse Center, she told Extra: ''I'm doing OK, I really am. I, I keep pushing and I'm really happy to be here. ''Whenever you're going through anything in life, when you step outside yourself and focus on others, that's always the best remedy for any situation that you'd rather not be dealing with.'' And Berry is also keeping busy by taking care of Maceo and Nahla, her seven-year-old daughter with ex-boyfriend Gabriel Aubry. Asked if Nahla knows how strong her mother is, Berry laughed and said: ''Oh yeah, you should be in my house! ''Maceo didn't go trick-or-treating be cause he has the chicken pox, Nahla was a zombie cheerleader and we had a great [time] ... I was a pirate and she [Nahla], she's like, 'You're a sexy pirate mommy.' I'm like, 'What do you know about a sexy pirate?' ''..
