Love, it seems, is always in season, but the harvest this year has left a bitter taste. In 2024, Hollywood's lovers have gifted us with more grand exits than red carpet entrances. It seems the idea of ‘forever’ lasts only slightly longer than a film's closing credits. This seemed to be especially true as fans struggled to stomach the second split of Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck. However, little did they know that DDG had something more shocking waiting for them.

Unsuspecting fans who viewed DDG's Instagram story were met with perhaps the most shocking celebrity couple news of this year as he announced his split with Halle Bailey.

When Halle Bailey and DDG first graced us with their romance, followed by the arrival of their son in 2023, fans collectively sighed, daring to hope that this time, love might persevere. There they were, young, glowing, seemingly immune to the pitfalls of fame and the relentless hum of public opinion. However, as DDG announced his split with Halle Bailey on his Instagram story stating that while the relationship has ended, the love remains and they will both be focusing on their individual journeys while co-parenting their child, another case of a fallen couple was added in Hollywood's history.

Halle Bailey and DDG's break up becomes all the more shocking because the couple was attending Usher's Past Present Future Tour together without a care in the world just last week. However, some fans noticed the cracks in their relationship in April when the couple took down some photos and have now even unfollowed each other.

While DDG did not cite any particular reasons behind the split and requested fans to remain respectful of them as individuals, Halle Bailey has been candid about her struggles for a while.

One look at Halle Bailey's or DDG's social media profiles makes it clear that the couple is rightfully nose-deep in love with their son. Often posting about how much she cherishes him, Bailey has been especially vocal about how difficult it is to go back to a normal life after giving birth in the sense that she cannot stand to be separated from her child. This drove the actress into postpartum depression.

Discussing her struggles with it and also acknowledging how widespread it is with almost seven out of ten women suffering from it, after delivering a baby, Halle Bailey did not shy away from expressing that she was having a tough time. The actress did not even hold back in expressing her frustration over trolls who targeted her family online. However, that she was going through all of it without her partner DDG remained a secret until now.
