The actress - who is due to give birth to her first child with Gabriel this month - insists the couple's relationship is stronger than her two failed marriages.
Halle said: "Gabriel is a wonderful person and I am just happy I've found someone really special to have a baby with. In a way, I feel more married than I ever have in two marriages."
Halle was previously wed to US baseball player David Justice and singer Eric Benet.
The 'X-Men' star met Gabriel while shooting a Versace advert in Los Angeles in November 2005. The pair went public with their relationship in February 2006.
The 41-year-old actress doesn't think she will ever feel the urge to be a bride again.
Halle said: "I will never marry again. I have a good healthy love for myself and love in my life. I no longer feel the need to be someone's wife and I don't need the validation of a marriage certificate.
"Gabriel and I have decided to redefine marriage for ourselves."
