On June 4, 2025, a Los Angeles judge denied rapper and YouTuber DDG’s (Darryl Dwayne Granberry Jr.) emergency request to prevent actress and singer Halle Bailey from traveling to Italy with their 17-month-old son, Halo. The court also dismissed DDG’s petition for a temporary restraining order against Bailey, allowing her to proceed with her international trip for a film project.
Background of the Custody Dispute
In May 2025, Bailey was granted temporary sole legal and physical custody of Halo after alleging instances of physical and emotional abuse by DDG. She obtained a restraining order requiring DDG to stay at least 100 yards away from her and their son.
In response, DDG filed his own restraining order against Bailey, claiming she posed an emotional and psychological risk to their child, citing alleged threats of self-harm and an incident involving his firearm.
Court’s Decision
The judge found insufficient evidence to support DDG’s claims and denied his requests. Bailey is permitted to travel to Italy with Halo, accompanied by family and a nanny, for her work commitments.
Ongoing Legal Proceedings
Bailey has requested that DDG’s visitation rights be limited to supervised sessions in Los Angeles and that he be prohibited from taking Halo outside the county. She also seeks to restrict DDG and his associates from discussing the case publicly on social media.
The legal battle continues as both parties navigate custody arrangements and address allegations made against each other.
