Rapper DDG has recently criticized his former partner Halle Bailey for not letting him meet their son
The news about 27-year-old rapper and YouTuber's popped up on the internet about a month after he criticized Halle Bailey for allegedly not allowing him to meet their child Halo. On March 8, the rapper uploaded a video on YouTube where he spoke about the same.
In the video, he added that he did not want to talk about his real-life situation with his audience but "felt like" he had to. Talking about Halle, he said:
"It's getting to a point where I feel like I'm honestly getting bullied when it comes to me just wanting to be a dad."
According to the rapper, while he would spend time with Halo, those moments were only "minimal." He additionally stated that citing the situation on social media was his "last resort." He even claimed that he once went to meet Halo but was allegedly "kicked out."
In January 2024, Halle announced on social media that she and the rapper had welcomed their son Halo. The announcement was made through an Instagram post by Halle, which included her holding Halo's little hand placed on the rapper's hand.
The breakup rumors between DDG and Halle Bailey began in April 2024, when the two reportedly unfollowed each other on Instagram. According to Elle, the duo also removed most of their pictures of each other from their respective social media accounts.
It was then confirmed by a representative of Halle claiming that the rumors were fake. However, in October 2024, the rapper revealed that the duo had broken up. The former couple had reportedly been involved in custody issues over their only son.
