Los Angeles: Halle Berry has been ordered by a court to pay USD 16,000 a month to her ex-boyfriend Gabriel Aubry for child support.

A Los Angeles court on May 30 ordered the actress to pay the hefty amount to support their daughter Nahla, 6, until she turns 19 years old or graduates from high school, whichever comes first.

The court also awarded Aubry USD 115,000 in retroactive support, reported a magazine.

The couple share equal custody of their daughter, according to court documents.

They reached an initial custody agreement in 2012 after a long court battle and a physical altercation involving Berry`s now husband Olivier Martinez.--- PTI
