On Thursday, DDG took to Instagram stories to announce that he and Halle Bailey have split. Addressing his followers, the rapper said, “After much reflection and heartfelt conversations, Halle and I have decided to go our separate ways.

In January, Halle Bailey and DDG announced on Instagram that they are proud parents of their son Halo, who was born in December 2023. According to Page Six, the pair were first speculated to be dating in January 2022 when they were spotted attending the Usher concert in Las Vegas. Then, in June, Bailey and DDG made their red carpet debut at the BET Awards.

In a 2022 interview with Essence, Bailey recalled what started her relationship with DDG. She said, “I grew up being on You- Tube and would always see the young Black creators and was constantly inspired by them. He was one of them.” She confessed that the two reconnected when DDG started putting up music, which is when it all began.
