Halle Bailey, the talented actress and singer, has recently shared an intimate glimpse into her personal life, revealing the joyous arrival of her first child. The 24-year-old star, known for her role as Ariel in the live-action remake of “The Little Mermaid,” has been basking in the glow of motherhood, embracing this new chapter with open arms.
In a heartwarming social media post, Bailey reposted a series of photos, one showcasing her radiant self by a pool and another highlighting her beautiful baby bump. The caption read, “Went out the country nine months ago…Brought back a permanent souvenir 😭.” Bailey’s reshare of the post was accompanied by a touching message, “this is what happened to me 😭,” referring to the birth of her 7-month-old son, Halo, whom she shares with her boyfriend, DDG, 26.
A Mother’s Love Unveiled
Last December, Bailey and DDG welcomed their bundle of joy, Halo, into the world. Celebrating her first Mother’s Day this year, the actress shared a heartwarming video compilation featuring never-before-seen footage of her and DDG cradling their newborn at the hospital. The video offered a glimpse into Bailey’s life as a new mom, capturing tender moments of her cuddling and bonding with her son.
In the caption, Bailey poured her heart out, writing, “My first mother’s day ♥️ the greatest love i’ve ever known.” DDG, equally smitten, expressed his admiration for Bailey as a mother, commenting, “The best mom ever!”
A Permanent Reminder of Love
In addition to the heartwarming video, Bailey revealed another milestone in her motherhood journey – her very first tattoo. The ink, a delicate cursive script reading “Halo” in red on her wrist, serves as a permanent reminder of her love for her son.
The significance of this tattoo cannot be overstated, as it symbolizes the unbreakable bond between a mother and her child, forever etched onto Bailey’s skin.
Embracing Fatherhood
DDG, too, has been open about his journey into fatherhood. In a YouTube video posted in January, the rapper shared his perspective, describing Bailey as a “great mom” and expressing his gratitude for having her by his side on this incredible journey.
“I wouldn’t choose no other person in the world to have a child with,” DDG said, beaming with pride. He also provided an update on their family life, stating, “We’re doing great.”
