Halle Berry's partner shared a risqué picture of the actress to celebrate Mother's Day, and it's safe to say it left fans divided.

On Sunday (May 12), the 57-year-old Academy Award winner's boyfriend, Van Hunt, took to Instagram to share a jaw-dropping post in honor of Mother's Day.

While most pictures used in a Mother's Day post are pretty tame, Hunt decided to go for something different.

In the picture, Berry can be seen showing off her derriere as she stood on the bedroom balcony of her home.

With her chestnut locks cascading down her back, the X-Men star is surrounded by plants as she faces her body away from the camera and gives a sultry look over her shoulder.

The singer-songwriter, 54, cheekily captioned the picture: "Happy Mother's Day from the bottom... of my heart. Oh sh**, I wasn't s'posed to post that! butt...u hav to admit thassa bad**s... mutha right there!"

The post sparked mixed reactions on social media as some fans stated that Hunt should've used a different picture and words to express his affection for Berry.

"We're glad Halle has found someone who makes her happy. However, his comments are a little raw. Would be nice if he used more endearing and respectful descriptive language," one user commented.

Another questioned: "Why would anyone share a NUDE of their gf?" while a third on Instagram added: "May this not be how a man shows love to me by publicly showing my nudity."

Meanwhile, others praised the couple as one user reacted: "I love how you love her. Lucky lady," and a second exclaimed: "LOVE IT! LOVE THIS! ART! LOVE!"

"I really love you two together, always have loved Halle. She is a wildling at heart and a free spirit and you compliment that so poetically," a third added.

Berry and Hunt have three kids between them.

The 'Seconds of Pleasure' singer is a father to a teenage son named Drake while the Monster's Ball star is mom to 16-year-old daughter Nahla Ariela with her ex Gabriel Aubry, and 10-year-old son Maceo-Robert, whom she shares with ex-husband Olivier Martinez.

Although the couple haven't tied the knot yet, they've opened up about their fondness and love for each other as a blended family.

Berry previously spoke with AARP The Magazine about how she believes she's "found my person" in Hunt, sharing: "My son Maceo on his own did this little commitment ceremony for us in the back seat of the car."

"I think he finally sees me happy, and it's infectious. It was his way of saying, 'This is good. This makes me happy,'" she said at the time. "It was a very real moment for all of us.

"I teared up, Van was fighting back tears. Even Maceo knew he'd said something poignant. I have two children, Van has a son. As a mom living this modern, blended family, all I care about is that my kids are okay with my decisions," she added.
