Halle Bailey Secures Restraining Order Against Ex-Boyfriend Amid Allegations of Abuse
Actress and singer Halle Bailey has obtained a restraining order against her former partner, rapper DDG, citing repeated incidents of violence and emotional abuse.
In her court filings, Bailey claimed there has been a pattern of abuse throughout their relationship, which began in 2022 and ended in October 2023. Highlighting several distressing incidents, Bailey recounted an altercation that occurred in January when Granberry allegedly assaulted her while she was securing their child in his car, resulting in a chipped tooth. Furthermore, she described an incident two months later where he allegedly broke into her home, sending her a menacing message alongside a picture of her bed.
The actress outlined additional incidents of intimidation, including threats made during confrontations over their son's health and a physical altercation in which Granberry reportedly took her phone and slammed a car door on her while she was holding their baby. Following the latter event, Bailey filed a police report.
Bailey's request for the restraining order was prompted by her desire for safety and peace for herself and her child, and she has also asked for Granberry to cease using social media to defame her. The court has ordered him to stay weapon-free and the judge has the discretion to extend the protective order for up to five years during the upcoming hearing.
Bailey, who gained fame with her sister as part of the musical duo Chloe x Halle, has received five Grammy nominations and has had a burgeoning solo career. Meanwhile, DDG became well-known through his YouTube channel and has released a series of albums since breaking into the music scene.
