Halle Bailey filed a temporary domestic violence restraining order against ex-boyfriend DDG, alleging that she is the victim of ongoing abuse.
In legal documents filed on Tuesday, May 13, and obtained by Us Weekly the following day, Bailey, 25, alleged that DDG (real name Darryl Dwayne Granberry Jr.) “has been and continues to be physically, verbally, emotionally and financially abusive towards me.”
The actress and DDG, 27, share 16-month-old son Halo, whom Bailey also filed to have “protected” via the requested court order.
Us has reached out to a representative for DDG for comment.
Bailey, who dated DDG from 2022 to 2024, also included photos within her filing, which depicted bruises on the Little Mermaid actress’ arms and a chipped front tooth.
Bailey’s declaration detailed a January 18 incident which allegedly involved DDG refusing to tell Bailey when he would return the pair’s son home from an outing with his father. “I felt very nervous that he was taking Halo with him and was very agitated,” Bailey claimed. “I did not feel safe leaving a baby with him in his state. I also wanted to know when he would bring Halo back. He would not tell me.”
Bailey claimed the incident escalated into physical violence. “We fought each other, wresting [sic] and tussling. At one point, Darryl was pulling my hair. He then slammed my face on the steering wheel, causing my tooth to get chipped,” Bailey wrote in her statement.
Bailey also detailed a second incident that allegedly took place on March 3. She claimed it involved DDG entering Bailey’s home without her permission. Four days later, Bailey claimed DDG dropped into her home again. “He became very angry with me,” Bailey wrote. “He raised his voice and became verbally abusive toward me, hurling bad names at me. He then saw that the Ring camera was recording; he unplugged the Ring camera, opened the side door, and threw the Ring camera out of my home. I went outside to retrieve the Ring camera. He then locked me out of my house.”
The documents also included Bailey’s request for DDG to stop posting online material regarding both her and the pair’s child. “He is a YouTube and Twitch Blogger and creates a fan frenzy by making false claims about me,” Bailey alleged. “This has caused me to feel afraid and victimized. His fans then threaten me. I am often scared for my life and Halo’s safety.”
Further evidence within the filing included a police report and Bailey’s claims that she has attempted to organize a schedule of care for her child that has not been addressed by DDG.
On March 7, DDG took to X to accuse Bailey of disallowing him from seeing Halo. “[B]een fighting to see my son for months now…,” he wrote in a since-deleted post, as reported by TMZ. “Shout out to all the Dads who try their best to be there. this s*** sucks.”
Shortly after deleting the post, DDG spoke about the situation via a livestream, per TMZ. “I really feel like I’m a f***ing nanny at this point,” he reportedly said at the time. “The nanny has been able to have my son more than me. And I don’t even know the nanny name. Like, it’s just not fair bro. So I have to come on here and I gotta do this s***.”
