DDG and Halle Bailey are no more. The couple charmed fans everywhere, especially after the arrival of their son in 2023, but DDG confirmed that they were going their separate ways on October 3. He put out a lengthy statement on Instagram, detailing their decision and assuring fans that they are still going to be friends and co-parents.

The message made the rounds the same day as DDG's breakup statement. It was framed, similarly, as white text against a black Instagram Story backdrop. It also posed DDG's decision to end his romance with Halle Bailey as something that stemmed from frustration.
"I'm a grown man I can make my own decisions," the fake post explained. "We chose to split because of personal reasons, nah it's not a skit. I'm not hurt.
" The fake post also posited that DDG is happy with the state of his relationship as long as his son is taken care of. "As long as my son good I'm good," the post concluded.
