Earlier this month, Halle Bailey became subject to voracious pregnancy rumors online. Shortly after the rumors broke she took to Instagram to show off a particularly flashy Gucci dress. While the post didn’t exactly fuel speculation, it didn’t do anything to slow it down. Neither did the vacation photos she shared with boyfriend DDG which had fans pouring over them looking for a baby bump.
Just a day later, DDG shared a clip to Snapchat that massively increased the speculation among fans. When they slowed it down to frame-by-frame many believed they could see a pregnant Halle in the corner of the screen. DDG ultimately laughed off the rumors describing anyone who was pushing them as a conspiracy theorist. He also said that “the internet is so gullible” which some fans interpreted as even more evidence that he was trying to deny the pregnancy. Check out Halle’s newest Instagram post below.
“minding my business…wbu?” she said in a caption seeming to acknowledge what fans were discussing online. In the comments, fans debated whether they had the right to speculate. “I hope she never tells yall the answers yall looking for,” one of the top comments reads. But other fans came down on the other side. “in ur business tryna see if your pregnant or not” and “I’m not minding my business! When is your due date?” two other comments read.
Even dating back to last month there was plenty of speculation that DDG and Halle could be expecting. Nick Canon even did a joke about DDG welcoming him to the “baby daddy gang” when the rumors first began to emerge. While the joke seemed to be in good faith, it probably didn’t help with the rumors. What do you think of Halle Bailey posting some selfies to Instagram amid her swirling pregnancy rumors? Let us know in the comment section below.
If she is expecting her first child, Halle Bailey has done a pretty impressive job of hiding it so far. Seeing as rumours have been following her and DDG for months now, though, it’s clear that it’s not good enough to keep the gossip at bay. Earlier today (November 13) fans of the couple thought they finally caught the YouTuber slipping by accidentally showing off Bailey’s bump. However, a new tweet from DDG has us questioning whether he and his other half have been messing with our heads this whole time.
The “Elon Musk” artist is often trolling online, usually to rack up more views on his videos. Now that he and The Little Mermaid actress are on a baecation together, social media sleuths have been carefully scouring through every post, looking for any evidence that Bailey has a baby on the way. Before long they found what they were looking for in multiple forms, including reflections of the singer in DDG’s sunglasses that seem to show her growing stomach.
As that and other “clues” began circulating on various blogs, some felt sure that the young lovers would have no choice but to finally share the big news. Instead, DDG is brushing off speculation of a slip-up, tweeting, “The internet so gullible ,” this afternoon. We’ve seen other celebs successfully hide almost their entire pregnancy in the past, but still, keeping such a major secret has to be exhausting.
We still can’t say for sure whether or not Halle Bailey and DDG are parents-to-be. What we do know is that if they do have a child it’ll certainly be well taken care of. This is thanks to income from the former’s budding acting career and the latter’s new collection with Boohoo Man.

It’s been months since people began speculating about a potential pregnancy for Halle Bailey, but the Atlanta-born actress still refuses to divulge her secrets with us. Instead, she’s been playing coy by mostly hiding her midsection from the camera. When Bailey has given us a look at her outfits from the front they’ve either been oversized, or images appear to be photoshopped to make her waist look even more slim than usual. Despite some insisting that she’s expecting her first child, the 23-year-old’s refusal to confirm the news has left some room for doubt.
We’ve been Bailey on many red carpets in recent weeks, donning gowns that shield her slim body from revealing too much. This weekend, she and DDG are taking a break from the spotlight with a trip to the tropics, allowing The Little Mermaid star to flaunt her body in a blue bikini, which she proudly did on Snapchat and other platforms. While she gave us a look at her swimsuit and perky bottom from the back, Halle’s refusal to turn around and give us a look at the current state of her stomach is raising eyebrows.
Elsewhere on her Story, Bailey “reconnected” with one of her animated Disney co-stars while picking up a tiny crab on the beach. She also posted a cute selfie with DDG (notably taken from the chest up, as well as a heartwarming video of a mother and baby bird spending time together in a tree. Finally, we see the brunette beauty swimming in the blue ocean, keeping her midsection hidden from view as she smiles for the camera.
Even with all the gossip about a potential baby in store for the couple, Halle Bailey and DDG have chosen to ignore the rumours to keep their private lives just that. They had plenty of fun this past Halloween with their creative costumes, one of which paid homage to Janet Jackson and the late Tupac Shakur. See photos at the link below, and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.
Halle Bailey and DDG followed up their Poetic Justice costume by evoking the energy of Whitney Houston and Bobby Brown. Returning to Instagram, the duo dropped off a new set of pictures, placing themselves in the attire of one of the world’s most famous couples.
“I hope everyone has a safe and lovely Halloween!!!” Halle Bailey wrote on Instagram. “I had so much fun dressing up as legends this yearrr Get off Twitter, go dress up, touch grass, and have fun outside!!!!”
Singer Halle Bailey and her boyfriend, rapper DDG, evoked the spirits of Janet Jackson and Tupac Shakur, dressing as the stars of Poetic Justice for their 2023 Halloween costume. You can see their full collection of pictures, mirroring the two icons, below.
Earlier this month, Halle Bailey, The Little Mermaid star celebrated for her ethereal voice and captivating performances, finds herself at the heart of swirling pregnancy speculations.
New photos, which The Shade Room first shared, show Bailey walking alongside her boyfriend, DDG. Halle, 21, gracefully donned an oversized gray hoodie and a Louis Vuitton bag over her shoulder. Her stomach appears round, leading fans to believe she is pregnant.
Rumors of Bailey’s pregnancy have swelled since August, with eagle-eyed fans scrutinizing every public appearance for clues. The couple, who made their relationship public earlier this year, has been a subject of fascination since their dating rumors first surfaced in January.
Bailey has maintained a veil of silence regarding the rumors surrounding her potential pregnancy. The actress has strategically chosen to conceal her figure beneath an array of oversized clothing, leaving fans to decipher the visual hints and piece together the puzzle.
It will be her first child with DDG if Bailey is pregnant, 26. The couple went public with their relationship earlier this year after sparking dating rumors last January. Now, fans eagerly await official confirmation or a revelation from the couple themselves.
Since pregnancy rumours first began swirling around Halle Bailey and DDG this summer, the singer’s silence on the topic led many to believe that the gossip is true. The fact that the 23-year-old has often been wearing oversized dresses to red carpet events in recent months hasn’t done much to calm things down. When she and her beau were walking around Santa Monica in their sweatpants earlier in October, the internet felt ready to make the announcement for the young couple.
As she appeared to have a budding baby bump under her sweatshirt, many have been waiting for Bailey to share some exciting news with her followers. However, the Atlanta native has instead kept us on our toes. Today (October 29), she’s showing off a notably slender figure when revealing her 2023 Halloween costume in tandem with DDG. The pair went as the lead characters from 1993’s Poetic Justice, played by Janet Jackson and the late Tupac Shakur.
Bailey has long been compared to the R&B legend physically, and her vocals are a great match for Jackson’s talent. Surprisingly, social media users even had compliments for the YouTuber, despite the negative reputation he seems to have amongst Bailey’s fanbase. “This kind of wins me over with DDG, but he got one more time to mess it up! Lol,” one user joked. Elsewhere in the comments, fellow artists like Flo Milli and Lakeyah gassed the pair up for their creativity.
As internet sleuths have certainly already noted, this now marks the second IG upload from Halle Bailey with no discernable signs of a baby bump. Of course, it’s entirely possible she and DDG planned ahead and took photos for Halloween before her body changed too much, but still, we won’t know for sure if the actress is headed toward motherhood until she tells us so herself. Do you think Bailey and her beau have what it takes to become parents so early on in life? Let us know in the comments, and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news.
Halle Bailey has been at the center of social media discussions for months amidst alleged pregnancy rumors with her boyfriend, DDG. While the talented singer and actress has remained silent about the speculations, fans now question whether Glamour UK Magazine deliberately fueled the fire. Slick Announcements On Tuesday, Oct. 17, Halle Bailey recently received the […]
Since people began speculating about them in January 2022, Halle Bailey and DDG have been open about their relationship. In August 2022, Bailey told Essenceshe was “for sure” in love with DDG, noting she’d “been a fan of his for years.” That November, DDG gushed about The Little Mermaid star in a way that incidentally foreshadowed the rumors swirling around the couple almost exactly one year later.
“Yeah, yeah, I’m married,” DDG said on The Breakfast Club. “Nah, I ain’t really married, but you know what I mean.” The rapper added that he figured he’d “eventually” marry Bailey. Well, did it happen?
On Wednesday, October 18, Glamour UKnamed Bailey its “Women Of The Year Awards 2023 Gen-Z Game-Changer honoree.” According to Pop Base, the accompanying cover story initially misattributed a pull-quote to Bailey that actually belonged to fellow cover star Leigh-Anne Pinnock. The quote reads, “Being a mum, being newly married — there’s the positive side of it, but also the negative. I want to show that, although things might look perfect from the exterior, that’s not always the case.”
Glamour Magazine seems to have incorrectly placed a quote from their interview with Leigh Anne on their interview with Halle Bailey, which implied that Halle was married to DDG and expecting their first child. pic.twitter.com/qHB2a7DcjE
Halle Bailey didn’t seem too concerned about beating the pregnancy rumours long floating around her and DDG on Monday (October 17). At the time, the couple was out in Santa Monica, where The Little Mermaid actress’ oversized outfit raised eyebrows in the California heat. Of course, we’re waiting for her and her YouTuber beau to share the news themselves before sending them congratulations, but their latest date night on Tuesday had some second-guessing whether Bailey is rocking a baby bump or not.
After beginning the week off in her casual attire, the 23-year-old reminded us she’s That Girl for the Glamour Women of the Year Awards. As per usual, Bailey and DDG beautifully coordinated their attire. He looked even more dapper than usual in an all-black suit, adding a hefty silver cross chain to accessorize. On his arm, the Atlanta native also opted to wear black, though her short dress featured beautiful white fabric layered underneath the skirt to give it some volume. Her simple black heels brought the full look together, along with her simple necklace, bracelet, and earrings.
As PEOPLE reports, the “Do It” singer and DDG first went Instagram official in March 2022. Since then, their relationship has had its share of ups and downs (like any), though Halle’s older sister, Chloe Bailey, recently made it clear that she loves to see her musical collaborator so happily in love, despite what the internet tries to say about her other half.
Halle Bailey fans were happy to see DDG supporting her overseas for the Glamour Women of the Year awards. Elsewhere, however, the “Elon Musk” artist got a far less warm welcome when performing at Southern University recently. Check out the crowd’s lacklustre reaction to his concert at the link below, and tap back in later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.
Singer and actress Halle Bailey has had a big year. Back in May, she starred as Ariel in the live-action version of The Little Mermaid. She also dropped her debut solo single, “Angel,” and is set to appear as Nettie in a remake of The Color Purple, which arrives in theaters in December.
But her relationship with rapper DDG also has been making headlines. Like many high-profile couples, their relationship has been plagued with rumors. So, here is a timeline of their relationship so far.
January 2022
The two were first spotted together at Usher’s residency show in Las Vegas, where they appeared to be enjoying themselves watching the R&B legend perform his hits. Pictures surfaced of DDG with his arm around Bailey, as the pair appeared rather happy and cozy.
June 2022
Bailey and DDG attended the BET Awards, making their official red carpet debut. Bailey noted that she was looking forward to seeing her sister Chlöe perform, with DDG by her side, who she referred to as her “boo.”
“I have my boo with me today,” Bailey said to Extra at the time. “We’re so excited. We’re gonna have so much fun just supporting Chloe. It’ll be great!”
Later that month, Bailey shared a TikTok of her and DDG doing some vocal exercises.
Bailey and DDG attended Variety‘s Power Of Young Hollywood event together.
October 2022
The couple attended the fifth annual Wearable Art Gala.
November 2022
Bailey opened up about her relationship with DDG in an interview with Essence. She recalled first seeing him as a YouTuber when both of them were younger.
“I’ve been a fan of his for years,” she said. “I grew up being on YouTube and would always see the young Black creators and was constantly inspired by them. He was one of them.”
She said she had first seen DDG’s videos around 2015, but had forgotten about him for a time. He caught her attention once again when he started making music, and she remembers gravitating to one song in particular.
“Coincidentally he messaged me — and the rest is history,” Bailey said.
December 2022
The couple attended the premiere of Avatar: The Way Of Water together.
February 2023
Fans began to speculate that there may be trouble in paradise after DDG’s ex-girlfriend, rapper Rubi Rose posted a tweet reading, “Having ur b*tch [wear] my clothes is crazy lol.”
Rose did not allude to DDG or Bailey directly, however, fans noticed that Bailey had shared a picture of herself wearing a shirt Rose had been seen wearing in 2020.
In a since-deleted tweet, DDG wrote “All these girls the same, ain’t no way,” and fans noticed he had unfollowed Bailey.
DDG later took to Twitter, seemingly addressing the rumors, saying, “nobody cheated on nobody btw. don’t take my tweets too serious.”
nobody cheated on nobody btw. don’t take my tweets too serious.
In an interview with British Vogue, Bailey reeled over a special kind of love, which she said was inspiring her creatively.
“Experiencing deep love for the first time in my life is something I feel has opened a whole new world for me creatively,” she said. “What it feels like to love someone other than your family, like somebody you may not have known two years ago but now they’re the center of your world. I like all of the scary feelings that come with that. I like the suspense, the not knowing what’s going to happen, and I feel like that’s what I’m supposed to be going through in womanhood.”
The interview was published shortly before the premiere of The Little Mermaid, and Bailey noted that being in the spotlight was beginning to make her feel uneasy.
“There’s a lot of eyes on me now, especially with what’s to come,” she said. “And sometimes I wish I didn’t have so many eyes on me, especially experiencing something like this for the first time.”
May 2023
The Little Mermaid premieres in theaters, and Bailey was busy with press this entire month. But as the hype started winding down, she posted a TikTok of she and DDG kissing — the video was captioned, “On my last day of press like…”
This past July, DDG dropped a song called “Famous,” in which he seemingly addressed the press campaign for The Little Mermaid.
On the song, he raps, “Filmin’ a movie now you kissing dudes / You know I love you a lot / I don’t give a f*ck if that sh*t for promo / I don’t wanna see this sh*t no more Why is y’all holdin’ hands in the photo? / You know I’m insecure, that’s a no-no.”
Fans suspected DDG was rapping about Bailey holding hands with her co-star, Jonah Hauer-King, during press appearances for The Little Mermaid.

Bailey and DDG were seen attending Diddy’s listening party for The Love Album in New York City together.
