Halle Seemingly Shares Photos Mystery Man Took Of Her

About 24 hours after The Shade Room exclusively shared the yacht date photos, Halle Bailey slid on social media with another POV. She seemingly shared the photos her mystery friend took of her yesterday. In the caption, ‘The Little Mermaid’ superstar wrote, “Just keep swimming.”

What’s Up With Halle, DDG & Their Custody Case?

It’s no secret that Halle Bailey and DDG have been launching bombshell accusations as they try to find their co-parenting rhythm. In the last few months, they’ve gone from being a couple to accusing each other of verbal, mental, and physical abuse, with photos and text messages as evidence in court docs.

Likely, Halle Bailey’s surprise yacht day happened overseas. A judge previously granted her permission to travel to Italy with Halo to film a two-month project. Following the June 24 hearing, a judge also granted DDG permission to visit their son overseas with a third-party supervisor, per Billboard.

While Halle and her mystery friend will likely shake the internet, DDG has been doing the same in the past few weeks with long-time influencer India Love.
