DDG Claims Halle Bailey Once Held Gun During Emotional Breakdown

DDG is raising serious concerns about ex-girlfriend Halle Bailey’s mental health as their custody battle over their infant son, Halo, continues to intensify.

According to court documents obtained by People, the rapper and YouTuber filed a motion seeking to prevent Bailey from traveling internationally with their child, recalling an alleged instance in which Bailey held a gun during an emotional breakdown.

The filing cited what DDG described as “repeated threats of suicide and self-harm” during previous disputes between himself and Bailey.

DDG claims that during the alleged incident, Bailey left their home with a firearm following an argument. He claims he later found her outside “emotionally unwell, incoherent and potentially suicidal,” while still in possession of the gun.

The rapper argues that these alleged episodes highlight a potential risk to their son’s safety should Bailey be permitted to travel overseas—specifically to Italy as part of her reported travel plans—without appropriate safeguards in place.

He points to the seeming lack of “emergency intervention mechanisms” that are readily available, emphasizing the need for precaution regarding their son.

Despite the severity of the allegations, a judge has since denied DDG’s motion to restrict Bailey’s travel, allowing her to proceed with her international trip with their son.

DDG and Halle Bailey began dating in early 2022 and publicly confirmed their relationship later that year. The couple welcomed their son, Halo, in December 2023, though they kept the pregnancy and birth largely private. They reportedly split in early 2024, shortly after becoming new parents.
