Halle Berry has motherhood to thank for her strong and youthful physique at 54, she says.

“I’m feeling and looking younger than I ever have because I’m putting in the work because I want to be there for my kids,” she told Brown Girl Jane founder Tai Beauchamp at the CBD brand’s first Black Beauty and Wellness Summit.

The actress went on, “I want to be around for my grandchildren, and not just to see them born … I want to see them grow.”

Berry is mom to 12-year-old daughter Nahla with model ex-boyfriend Gabriel Aubry and 6-year-old son Maceo with her ex-husband Olivier Martinez.
