- Berry met Hunt in 2020 and says earlier relationship turmoil helped her appreciate him in a healthier way.
- Hunt said in June 2025 he had proposed, a plan placed on hold, and Berry has said the pair does not need marriage to validate their relationship, though they may wed eventually.
- Her reflections resurface as she promotes her new film Crime 101, which opens Feb. 13.
