Halle Bailey has shut down her social media accounts after facing backlash for publicly criticizing her former costar DDG for showing off their son Halo to “millions of people” during a livestream on Kai Cenat.
The former couple split last month, less than a year after welcoming their little boy. The Little Mermaid actor took to X (Twitter) on Wednesday (November 6) to express her frustration with the rapper and content creator going live with her children without her consent.

Bailey also hinted that the condition exacerbated her “bad postpartum period” and may have caused her to have a meltdown.
“As a woman going through a severe postpartum period, I want some boundaries to be respected,” she wrote on Twitter. “No one knows what someone is going through until they break.”
However, her comments sparked debate on social media, with Bailey reaching number two in the country within hours of posting.
“Girl why are you telling us?” one person wrote. “And then when people express their opinions, you and ddg are going to tell us to mind our own business, right? Call your baby daddy and tell him about it. Trump is president now and we have other topics to talk about. talk.

Many have pointed out that Halle Bailey knew DDG was a streamer before she had a child with him. “No shadow sisters,” another fan added, “but what do you think happens when you procreate with a YouTuber?”

Meanwhile, others came to her defense.
“When Kanye said he didn’t want his kids online, black Twitter rallied behind him with pitchforks and burned Kim,” another shared. “Halle Bailey said the same thing, but now she’s the devil? Why do you hate women so much?

“For the idiots who told her to “text him,” don’t you think it’s even more outrageous that she already texted him and he didn’t know…and deliberately didn’t reply? “A fourth user questioned. “Halle has always been more private than DDG, so let’s use our brains for 5 seconds and think about why she doesn’t do it now. ”
