Halle Bailey and DDG have split up after nearly three years together.
The actor struck up a relationship with rapper DDG —whose real name is Darryl Dwayne Granberry Jr. — in early 2022 and they have a son, Halo, together. It was revealed on Oct. 3 that, even though it was “not easy,” they have decided to call it quits.
“After much reflection and heartfelt conversations, Halle and I have decided to go our separate ways. This decision was not easy, but we believe it’s the best path forward for both of us. I cherish the time we’ve spent together and the love we’ve shared. Despite the change in our relationship, our love for each other remains deep and true,” DDG wrote on Instagram.
The Little Mermaid star is yet to acknowledge the split publicly, but DDG concluded his statement by noting that he and Bailey intend to “co-parent” their little one going forward. He asked fans to respect their “understanding and support” during this time.
“As we focus on our individual journeys and our roles as co-parents, we cherish the bond we’ve built and the beautiful moments we’ve shared. As we navigate this transition, we ask for your understanding and support. Thank you for your love and encouragement. – DDG,” he said.
Bailey doesn’t often comment on her private life. She gave birth several weeks before she revealed it to the world.
“There was no way in hell I was going to share the biggest joy of my world with anyone. Halo was my gift. He is the greatest blessing, and I had no obligation to expose him, me, or my family to that,” she explained at the time.
