Halle Berry wants to cut down ex-beau's child support amount

Halle Berry has slammed her former beau Gabriel Aubry saying that he is a "bum" and she wanted to reduce the amount of monthly child support as Gabriel has stopped working.

The 48-year-old actress has filed legal documents where the actress has asked the judge to reduce her monthly child support obligation from 16,000 dollars a month to just over 3,000 dollars a month, TMZ.com reported.

The American actress said that Aubry was perfectly capable of getting a job and by reducing the support it will allow their 6-year-old daughter Nahla to live a comfortable life.

Berry and Aubry have a joint custody of their daughter after separating in 2010.
