The ring's in Halle Berry's court!
The 58-year-old Oscar winner's boyfriend of five years, Van Hunt, revealed to Today.com that he has already popped the question.
"I put out the proposal, and it’s still on hold as you can see," he told the website after having his first joint interview with Berry on the June 4 episode of Today with Jenna & Friends. "It’s just out there floating. You know, maybe you can encourage her."
As for why Berry hasn't said yes yet, she noted both of their past marriages have influenced her.
“Well, I’ve been married three times. Van has been married once, and so no, we don’t feel like we have to get married to validate our love in any way. We don't,” Berry said.
Berry was previously married to Olivier Martinez before the two split in 2015. Prior to her relationship with Martinez, 57, she was married to former MLB player David Justice and singer/actor Eric Benét.
However, despite her current hesitation, Berry does plan to one day tie the knot with Hunt.
"I think we will get married just because, out of the people I’ve been married to, this is the person I should have married," Berry noted. “And I feel like I should, we should get married, but it’s not because we feel like we have to. I think it’s something that we would like to do just because we want that expression."
As for when that would be, she simply replied "soon."

Berry and Hunt went official with their relationship in September 2020.
At the time, a source told PEOPLE they had been seeing each other for "several months" and that he had met Berry's two children: daughter Nahla, 17, and son Maceo, 11.
In a Sept. 10, cover story interview with Marie Claire, the Oscar winner opened up about Hunt, telling the publication: “It was the first time I was madly in love before I had sex,” she revealed.
“That has never happened to me, ever,” she added. “Talk about one of those life-changing, beautiful experiences. It was magical, just magical.”
The actress-filmmaker first met the Grammy winner through his brother. "Van’s brother, who I had known for many years, came to me and said, ‘You should meet my brother.’ ”she said.
Of navigating their relationship, Berry said that it “took me a minute to get it right,” but “the nature of the way this happened, I have a real belief that this is it. This is my person.”
Berry told Women's Health in November 2021 that she feels "fulfilled" in her life with Hunt.

"I wish I had met him sooner so I could have loved him longer. I just feel fulfilled. I feel happy in my life romantically, as a mother, as an artist," the Oscar winner said at the time.
Berry added, "I'm a much better mother in this circumstance than I would have been had I stayed in a romantic relationship that didn't serve me and didn't make me feel the way I need to feel as a woman."
Over the years, the two have shared various social-media tributes to each other, whether it's celebrating birthdays, holidays and everything in between.
"On Wednesdays, we drink pink 🥂 happy anniversary VanO," Berry captioned a photo of two glasses of champagne outdoors in April 2022. Sharing the picture again to her Instagram Story, the Moonfall star wrote, "Happy anniversary @vanhunt," adding a red heart and cheers emoji.

Like Berry, Hunt also has a career in the entertainment industry. He is a Grammy Award-winning recording artist who has released five albums, beginning with his self-titled debut album in 2004.
"Halle has found a soulmate in Van," a film source previously told PEOPLE about the couple. "She feels greatly loved by him. She is very happy and secure in the relationship."
