Halle Bailey is currently pursuing legal action against her former partner, DDG, amidst serious allegations of domestic violence.
On Tuesday, May 13, the 25-year-old singer and actress successfully obtained a temporary restraining order against the 27-year-old rapper and YouTuber, whose real name is Daryl Dwayne Granberry Jr., following an incident where he allegedly attacked her earlier this year, raising significant concerns regarding her safety.
For those who may not be aware, Halle and DDG were in a relationship that spanned over two years before their breakup in October 2024, which occurred less than a year after they welcomed their child, Halo, born in December 2023, adding layers of complexity to this troubling situation.

According to court documents, which included photographic evidence of her injuries, Halle claims that this attack resulted in visible bruises on her arms and a chipped tooth, reflecting the severity of the alleged incident and highlighting the need for protective measures.
In her documentation, she expressed, “I then stopped fighting back as I was in a lot of pain,” a testimony that reveals the distress and desperation she felt during the encounter.
Furthermore, she mentioned, “Darryl lacks an understanding of how his actions impact Halo. He is often verbally abusive towards me in front of Halo,” indicating a concerning pattern of behavior that could affect their child’s well-being.
The star of The Little Mermaid elaborated on several other alleged confrontations between the former couple, including receiving a “threatening” text message from DDG after he reportedly entered her home without her knowledge.
In a shocking turn of events, days later, DDG allegedly locked Halle out of her own house and took her phone, driving off and tossing it out of the car window, an act that further emphasizes the troubling dynamics of their relationship.
In addition to these disturbing incidents, Halle asserted that DDG frequently engages in public harassment, disparaging her to his millions of followers on platforms like YouTube and Twitch, which has caused her to receive numerous threats and hateful messages on social media, contributing to her sense of fear and isolation.
“I have done everything possible to avoid going to Court,” Halle stated in her filing. “I have tried to placate Darryl by providing him access to Halo, even though he is not with Halo and often leaves Halo with his Mother. I have facilitated his visits, no matter where I am and often last minute. I realize that there is no placating Darryl. I cannot allow this abuse any longer. I cannot keep living like this,” revealing her helplessness in trying to manage the situation while prioritizing her child’s safety.
As it stands, DDG has yet to publicly respond to Halle‘s serious allegations, leaving many to wonder about his side of the story and the implications for both parties involved.
Back in March, DDG made accusations against Halle, claiming that she was preventing him from seeing Halo, which adds another layer of complexity to their already strained relationship.
