The nasty custody war between rapper/YouTube star DDG and actress Halle Bailey has taken a fresh twist. DDG has asked the court to allow him to meet his son, Halo, in Italy. The request comes after a messy legal battle with fans watching closely and headlines buzzing.
The Little Mermaid’s Halle Bailey was also awarded a restraining order against DDG last month after claiming she was a victim of domestic violence. According to the actress, DDG physically attacked her in January during an exchange of custody, and it left her with aches and a chipped front tooth. DDG has denied these allegations, saying that he has never laid a hand on the mother of his child.
After Bailey sought complete control of their child’s whereabouts, DDG filed an emergency motion to stop Bailey from taking their son out of the country to shoot a movie. The rapper-turned-streamer also requested and was granted a restraining order against the actress. Both orders were temporarily granted, but Bailey maintains temporary exclusive legal and physical custody of Halo.

As Bailey heads to Italy to film for the summer, DDG fights for his right to see his son. He recently filed paperwork asking the court for permission to travel to Italy later this month to see Halo. DDG has agreed to bring his mother to allay such fears, providing oversight to bar legal or emotional complications. This new information represents how the custody case has been complicated and emotionally tense. Both parents have lodged legal battles to secure their rights and safeguard their reputations, and the struggle underneath the legal paper is much the same, the shared concern for the well-being of their infant son.
The legal fight has played out under public scrutiny, highlighting their personal turmoil and the broader dynamics of custody disputes in relationships between two people in the public glare. As a judge judges DDG’s request, many question whether the trip signifies a step toward more amicable co-parenting or if it will dig an even deeper hole between the two stars. At least, the world looks to see whether DDG will be allowed his wish to be reacquainted with Halo on Italian soil, even under strict supervision. The court’s ruling may determine the future of their parenting relationship and signal what’s to come in this very public custody battle.
