Halle Bailey Lashes Out After Son’s Appearance In Unauthorized Livestream: “I Am His Protector”
Halle Bailey’s recent reaction to seeing her son featured in a livestream without her knowledge triggered a wave of conversation.
The 24-year-old actress, known for her roles in The Little Mermaid and The Color Purple, expressed her shock and frustration on social media after discovering that her 9-month-old son, Halo, appeared in a YouTube video.
The incident unfolded on Tuesday, November 6, when Halo’s father, rapper and influencer DDG (real name Darryl Dwayne Granberry Jr.), featured their son on Kai Cenat’s “Mafiathon 2” Twitch stream.

Kai, 22, later shared the segment on his YouTube channel but eventually cut the portion with Halo out following the criticism.
Halle, who was out of town when the livestream occurred, took to X (formerly Twitter) to share her dismay.
“I wasn’t told or notified and I am extremely upset to have my baby in front of millions of people,” she wrote.

The 24-year-old actress reportedly deleted her social media accounts but later reactivated them.

“Yesterday maybe I did overreact and shouldn’t have brought it here,” she admitted. “I know that halo is always safe with his dad. I just don’t like finding out with the rest of the world what my baby is doing. thank u Kai for the gifts for Halo.”
In a show of support, DDG responded in a YouTube video and defended the mother of his child against any criticism.
The 27-year-old “Moonwalking in Calabasas” artist made it clear that he wouldn’t tolerate negativity aimed at her.

“One thing I don’t like what people do, I don’t like when people hate on Halle,” he said. “I don’t care if people think she wrong or not, or if I think she wrong or right.”
“She could be going through something mentally after having a kid that I can’t understand as a man,” he added.

“So when situations like this happen, I try to handle it with as much grace as possible because Halo needs her, I need her, we need each other to create a childhood that’s safe and fun and memorable for him,” he continued.
Calling his son “the biggest blessing,” he said he can’t “remember what life was like” before their baby was born.
