American actress and singer, Halle Bailey has welcomed a baby boy with her boyfriend, rapper DDG and they both shared the news on social media.
“Even though we’re a few days into the new year, the greatest thing that 2023 could have done for me, was bring me my son,” Bailey wrote on her Instagram page alongside a photo showcasing her newborn son’s hand wearing a gold bracelet with his name, “Halo,” engraved on it.
“Welcome to the world my halo,” she wrote. “The world is desperate to know you.”
DDG was the first to post about the news on Saturday, writing, “my biggest blessing by far” and that he’s “never been so in love.”
The singer and YouTuber turned rapper, whose full name is Darryl Dwayne Granberry Jr., were first linked after they were spotted attending an Usher concert together in 2022.
According to Bailey, she and DDG met on social media, though she apparently knew him from his vlogging days in 2015. “I completely forgot about him,” Bailey told Essence.
“But then I saw he was dropping music, and I really gravitated toward this one song. Coincidentally he messaged me — and the rest his history.”
While pregnant in 2023, Halle never publicly spoke about the rumors that she was expecting her first child.
DDG opened up about the relationship in an interview with The Breakfast Club in November 2022. “I’ve never been with nobody that’s, like, really motivated me like she do,” he shared. He also confirmed that he plans on proposing to Halle one day.
