In brief

In a recent court ruling, actress and singer Halle Bailey has been granted a restraining order against her ex-boyfriend DDG, citing instances of physical and emotional abuse directed at her and their one-year-old son, Halo.

Actress Halle Bailey, best known for her role in Disney’s The Little Mermaid, finds herself in a difficult situation as she obtains a restraining order against her former partner, rapper DDG (Darryl Dwayne Granberry Jr.). Bailey, 25, alleges that Granberry abused her both physically and emotionally during their relationship, which lasted from 2022 until their split last October.The Los Angeles judge's order requires Granberry to maintain distance from Bailey and their son until a hearing scheduled for June 6. In her court documents, Bailey recounted "multiple acts of physical violence," including a distressing incident where Granberry purportedly pulled her hair and slammed her face against a steering wheel, resulting in a chipped tooth. Bailey cited further alarming behavior from Granberry, such as entering her home uninvited and sending her threatening messages. She expressed her fears for both her own safety and that of their child, seeking measures to protect them from his actions. The restraining order also prohibits Granberry from owning any firearms and could potentially be extended for up to five years during the upcoming hearing. Bailey emphasized the mental strain of Granberry's disparaging remarks on social media, which stirred up unwanted harassment towards her from fans of his. With her rise to fame through the duo Chloe x Halle and notable acting roles, Bailey is navigating a challenging personal situation as she continues her career in the spotlight.
