After more than two years together, actress and singer Halle Bailey and rapper DDG (Darryl Dwayne Granberry Jr.) have ended their relationship. On October 3, 2024, DDG made the announcement on Instagram Stories, explaining the reasons behind the breakup. The post quickly trended, revealing that the split was a “unanimous decision after much reflection and heartfelt conversations.” Despite no longer being romantic partners, their mutual respect remains. DDG emphasized their focus on co-parenting their son Halo, who was born in late 2023.
In his statement, DDG expressed gratitude for the love and support they received from fans, highlighting the importance of family:
“Dear friends and supporters,
After much reflection and heartfelt conversations, Halle and I have decided to go our separate ways. This decision was not easy, but we feel it is the right direction for both of us. I appreciate the time we spent together and the love we shared. Our love for each other hasn’t diminished, even though our relationship has changed; we remain best friends.
As we navigate this transition and take on co-parenting roles, we will always cherish the bond we’ve built and the beautiful moments we’ve shared. We know this transition may bring sadness, so please be patient and kind to us.
Thank you for your love and encouragement. —DDG”
The split was reportedly amicable, with both partners prioritizing their son’s well-being and continuing to provide him with stability. Halle Bailey has not made an official response but has posted family-themed photos and moments with friends on Instagram, suggesting she’s receiving support as she moves forward.
Fans reacted with surprise and empathy, as the couple had presented a united front despite rumors and public scrutiny. DDG and Bailey began dating in early 2022, and their relationship quickly became a favorite among fans. They frequently showcased their bond on social media and in interviews, where Bailey spoke about their deep connection.
However, like many high-profile couples, they faced challenges, with constant rumors about their future. The breakup shocked many, but both have made it clear they will remain united for their son. The positive tone of DDG’s message and Bailey’s focus on family show their shared commitment to keeping things respectful and supportive as they move forward.
