In January, the Little Mermaid actress revealed she had welcomed her first baby with DDG, a son they named Halo.

Bailey announced the birth of her little boy on Instagram, posting a photo of her manicured hand holding that of a tiny hand with a gold bracelet etched with the name "Halo."

"Even though we’re a few days into the new year, the greatest thing that 2023 could have done for me, was bring me my son.. welcome to the world my halo 🥰👼🏽 ✨the world is desperate to know you 😉🤣♥️," she captioned the photo.

Bailey and boyfriend DDG have been dating for more than a year. The pair went Instagram official in March 2022 when the Zooted Music record label founder posted on the R&B singer's birthday.

The actress is notoriously private about her personal life, having never confirmed she was expecting a baby throughout her pregnancy.

In November, Bailey responded to a fan on Snapchat who alleged that she had "pregnancy nose" in a photo.

In response to the comment, Bailey shared a video saying, "Listen, if I see one more person say something about my nose one more time, it's going to be hell to pay."

"You know why? Because I'm Black. I love my nose," she continued. "What are you concerned about my nose for? Leave me the hell alone."

In May, Bailey opened up to PEOPLE about how life has been since striking up a romance with DDG. When asked if she would call him a real Prince Charming, she said, “Yeah. I would say that.”

“I think the best thing about young love is that you're able to continue to find yourself through this journey of loving somebody else,” the actress explained. “And you're discovering new parts of yourself and maybe things that you didn't notice before about your heart."
