DDG gifted his one-year-old son a Ferrari on his birthday

On December 22, 2024, rapper DDG and his partner Halle Bailey celebrated their son Halo's first birthday. The couple posted photos of the birthday celebration on social media. However, what caught the attention of netizens was that they had purchased a brand-new Ferrari for their one-year-old.

Halo was born in December of the previous year, and the couple went public with their kid earlier in 2024. Since then, both DDG and Halle Bailey have had ups and downs in their relationship, ultimately resulting in their separation in October. However, a month later, DDG declared that he hadn't ended his relationship with Bailey.

The video of the two gifting a Ferrari to their son went viral just days after DDG declared that he needed $40,000 to organize his son's birthday. The rapper implored fans to avoid skipping ads while watching his videos. Therefore, the gesture of gifting a Ferrari to Halo immediately sparked a wave of criticism.

Several other clips of Halo's birthday party were posted online. In one, Halle Bailey became emotional while wishing him Happy Birthday, and in another, Halo appeared surprised to see a life-sized version of Colomelon.
