On Wednesday (June 4), DDG requested an emergency hearing in an attempt to block Halle Bailey from traveling internationally with their son, Halo. He countered her previous domestic violence accusations by filing for a restraining order of his own, but his request was not approved. Bailey is set to leave to Italy with their one-year-old this weekend for a few months as she shoots a film.
TMZ reported yesterday the Michigan rapper filed a motion against his ex-girlfriend, claiming she poses an “imminent emotional and psychological risk” to the child. He included several alleged incidents that would back up his assertions, if true. DDG wrote about a time Halle took his gun and ran out of his house, said she would have an abortion behind his back, and would text him concerning messages regarding her mental health.

“In or about August 2023, during a particularly volatile argument, petitioner became enraged and threatened to end her life using my legally owned firearm. Without my consent, she took the weapon and left the house,” wrote DDG in a declaration attached to his court filing, per Billboard. “This incident was one of several in which petitioner’s actions posed a serious threat to her own safety and the safety of our son by creating an environment of emotional distress and danger within the home.”
The rapper also claimed Halle sent “a series of alarming text messages threatening to kill herself and suggesting that their infant son, Halo, might also be harmed.”
In May, Halle was granted a temporary restraining order against DDG after accusing him of abuse. She cited an incident where he allegedly smashed her head against a steering wheel during an argument, said he often referred to her as a “b**ch” or “evil,” and rallied his supporters to bad-mouth her publicly.
The Little Mermaid actress addressed her Italy travel plans in her original complaint, which was approved on May 15. “I have family and a nanny who will be traveling with me to care for Halo while I am working,” Halle wrote in the court documents.
The former couple went public in March 2022 and had a child together in December 2023. See a full timeline of their relationship here.
