The "Kidnap" star took to Instagram on October 12, 2016, sharing a photo of herself with a crown on her head writing,

"My #WCW goes to all my QUEENS who have suffered any form of domestic violence. I think this quote captures it perfectly... "Dear women, Sometimes you'll just be too much woman. Too smart, too beautiful, too strong. Too much of something. That makes a man feel like less of a man, which will start making you feel like you have to be less of a woman. The biggest mistake you can make is removing jewels from your crown to make it easier for a man to carry. When this happens, I need you to understand, you do not need a smaller crown... You need a man with bigger hands."

Meanwhile, Halle Berry and estranged husband, Olivier Martinez, have reportedly been ordered to work on their divorce proceedings or have the case dismissed.

According to TMZ, ex-couple have been issued a legal document in which the divorce clerk accuses the pair of "sleeping at the wheel," and doing nothing to finalise the procedure. An ultimatum was thereby issued, asking the ex-couple to actively pursue the proceedings or have the case dismissed altogether.

The "XMen" star is also currently busy filming her new movie, "Kingsman: The Golden Circle" in London, which is scheduled for release on June 16, 2017.
