Halle Berry has revealed that becoming pregnant has been the 'biggest surprise of my life.'
The 46-year-old actress, who is expecting a child with French fiance Olivier Martinez, has spoken for the first time about her pregnancy.
'I feel fantastic. This has been the biggest surprise of my life to tell you the truth,' Halle said in an interview with CNN at a dinner in New York, which she hosted with Michael Kors to help the United Nations World Food Programme fight world hunger.
'I thought I was kind of past the point where this could be a reality for me. So it's been a big surprise and the most wonderful,' she added.
The Academy Award winner also said that she didn't yet know the sex of the baby, only that it was healthy.
