Despite fans speculating about Halle Bailey’s pregnancy throughout 2023, she and DDG managed to keep it a secret until the arrival of Halo. On January 6, 2024, Bailey delighted fans by sharing the news on Instagram, stating:

“even though we’re a few days into the new year, the greatest thing that 2023 could have done for me was bring me my son.. welcome to the world my halo 🥰👼🏽 ✨the world is desperate to know you 😉🤣♥️”

In March 2024, during the ESSENCE Black Women in Hollywood Awards, Bailey elaborated on her decision to keep her pregnancy hidden, saying:

“There was no way in hell I was going to share the biggest joy of my world with anyone. Halo was my gift. He is the greatest blessing, and I had no obligation to expose him, me, or my family to that.”

She further expressed her views:

“With the state of the world and the place it is in with men trying to force their will on our bodies, no one on social media, and for damn sure, no one on the planet, was going to tell me what to do with my body or what to share with the world.”

In February 2024, on The Jason Lee Show, Halle Bailey’s partner, DDG, revealed that their pregnancy was “unplanned.”He shared that they discovered the pregnancy right after the premiere of The Little Mermaid, where Bailey portrayed Ariel. He remarked:

“We weren’t aiming for a baby, but it just kinda happened. Both of us have the same interest in being parents. And I feel like she always wanted to be a mom. We always kind of just give off that energy, and I always wanted a kid. So, from there we just made the decision to go through with it.”

Halle Bailey has also been candid about her experiences with postpartum depression and body image challenges following the birth of Halo, as she disclosed in various interviews.

“Now going through it, it almost feels like you’re swimming in this ocean that’s like the biggest waves you’ve ever felt and you’re trying not to drown. And you’re trying to come up for air.”
