Halle Bailey Secures Restraining Order Against Allegedly Abusive Ex-Boyfriend DDG
Actress and singer Halle Bailey, known for her role in Disney's The Little Mermaid, has been granted a restraining order against her former partner, rapper DDG.
Halle Bailey, the acclaimed actress and singer, has been granted a restraining order against her former boyfriend, rapper DDG, amid allegations of violence and abuse. The restraining order was issued by a Los Angeles judge who instructed DDG, whose real name is Darryl Dwayne Granberry Jr., to maintain a distance from Bailey and their one-year-old son, Halo, until a scheduled court hearing on June 6.
At 25, Bailey has expressed serious concerns for her safety, stating in court documents that she has suffered from multiple occurrences of physical violence since her relationship with DDG ended in October. The actress alleged that the abuse extended throughout their time together, detailing an incident in January where a disagreement led to a physical altercation, resulting in a chipped tooth and various bruises on her body, which she documented.
Bailey's description of her experiences paints a distressing picture, including claims that DDG exhibited controlling behavior, such as entering her house uninvited and sending threatening messages. Additionally, she recounted a specific confrontation when DDG reacted violently after she withheld their sick child from a visit with him, showcasing a rising pattern of intimidating behavior that ultimately prompted her to involve law enforcement.
As part of the restraining order, the judge has mandated that DDG refrain from possessing any weapons and has allowed for the potential extension of the order for up to five years during the upcoming hearing. Furthermore, Bailey requested that DDG cease any disparaging remarks about her on social media, which have led to harassment and threats directed at her.
Both Bailey and DDG have garnered significant public attention through their respective careers, with Bailey achieving fame through her music duo Chloe x Halle and her acclaimed role in the live-action adaptation of The Little Mermaid. Meanwhile, DDG, who gained traction from his YouTube career, has also released multiple albums since his rise to prominence.
The gravity of the situation has placed a spotlight on issues of domestic abuse and the importance of speaking out against violence in relationships. As this case unfolds, it serves as a pivotal reminder of the challenges many face behind the scenes, regardless of public image or success.
The couple's relationship, while relatively short-lived from 2022 until the latter part of 2023, has now turned into a complicated and tumultuous legal battle that highlights significant social concerns regarding domestic violence and mental health. The public awaits further developments as the case heads to court next month.
