Halle Bailey is having a moment of self-reflection after going full-speed ahead with an online callout to her ex-boyfriend, DDG.
On Wednesday night (November 6), the 24-year-old singer and actress took to the interwebs to express some major side-eye at the 27-year-old rapper. Why? Oh, just the small matter of him livestreaming their son Halo without asking her first. You know, basic co-parenting stuff.
Fast-forward to the next day, and Halle, with the grace of a queen who’s had 12 hours of thinking time, took to social media to dial it back a notch. She posted a new message on X (formerly known as Twitter, because we’re still pretending that rebranding works). She wrote, “Yesterday maybe i did overreact and shouldn’t have brought it here.” (Translation: “Okay, okay, I got a little spicy. But, you know, it happens.”)
Halle went on to clarify, “i know that halo is always safe with his dad. i just don’t like finding out with the rest of the world what my baby is doing.” (Read: “I’m not mad that Halo’s alive and well, but I didn’t sign up to be on the Halo Reality Show.”)
For those who’ve been sleeping under a rock (or just don’t follow the latest celebrity breakups), Halle and DDG were an item for over two years before parting ways in October 2024. Oh, and their secret baby Halo? He made his stealthy debut earlier this year. We’re talking “under-the-radar” stealthy.
Oh, and as if their relationship didn’t provide enough drama for a Netflix documentary, DDG added fuel to the fire in July 2023 with his song “Famous,” where he admitted being a little insecure about his girlfriend’s career and, uh, fame. Because who wouldn’t be a little nervous about dating someone who’s hotter than your latest track?
yesterday maybe i did overreact and shouldn’t have brought it here. i know that halo is always safe with his dad. i just don’t like finding out with the rest of the world what my baby is doing. thank u kai for the gifts for halo 🩷✨
