Halle referred to the racist backlash she faced following the announcement she’d been cast as in “The Little Mermaid”, and said that the role changed her life. “It cannot compare to the biggest joy of my life. And that was becoming a mom to my perfect little angel Halo”, she added.
“There was no way in hell I was going to share the biggest joy of my world with anyone. Halo was my gift. He is the greatest blessing, and I had no obligation to expose him, me, or my family to that”, explained the actress.
Bailey said that she opted to keep her pregnancy private due to “the state of the world”. She announced the birth of her first baby with boyfriend DDG in an Instagram post in January 2023.
