Halle Bailey and DDG have a new member in their family. On Saturday, Jan. 6, the couple announced on Instagram that they’ve welcomed their first child together — a son named Halo. The stars shared the exciting news by posting a close-up of their baby’s hand with a gold bracelet featuring his name. Although the actress and rapper didn’t reveal Halo’s exact birth date, they did confirm he arrived in 2023.

The last line appears to reference the pregnancy rumors surrounding the actress over the past few months. Although Halle Bailey and DDG never confirmed they were expecting, fans began speculating The Little Mermaid star was pregnant when she began wearing more baggy clothing. In September, Bailey told US Weekly her new look was due to her wanting to “switch” up her style.
However, that didn’t stop fans from spreading rumors about her personal life. Most recently, in November, a fan on Snapchat accused Bailey of having a “pregnancy nose.” She responded by telling people to leave her “the hell alone.”
Listen, if I see one more person say something about my nose one more time, it’s going to be hell to pay.

DDG has also fired back at people spreading rumors about him and Bailey. On New Year’s Eve, a fan asked the rapper on Snapchat if he had a secret daughter with his girlfriend. He denied it with a simple “no.” However, the question led DDG to urge fans to stop gossiping about the couple.
Go outside. Touch some grass. Do a cartwheel in the backyard or something. I genuinely don’t understand why do y’all be so invested in people that don’t know you.
