Halle Bailey Secures Restraining Order Against Ex-Boyfriend for Alleged Abuse
Actress and singer Halle Bailey has taken legal action against her former partner, rapper DDG, citing ongoing abuse concerns.
Bailey's legal claims, as detailed in court documents, describe a series of violent episodes that commenced after the couple's breakup in October. Bailey asserts that since their relationship ended, Granberry has not only been abusive but has engaged in a pattern of intimidation. "Throughout our relationship, Darryl has been and continues to be physically, verbally, emotionally, and financially abusive towards me," Bailey stated, emphasizing her urgent need for protection.
The application for a restraining order highlights specific incidents, including one in January where Granberry allegedly became physical while she was securing their child in a car seat, resulting in Bailey sustaining injuries. Following this, an alleged break-in occurred at her residence, where he sent a threatening photo relating to their home life.
Furthermore, Bailey reported an incident where Granberry destroyed a doorbell camera during a heated exchange about their son's welfare and even physically assaulted her while she was holding the baby. Due to these alarming confrontations, she has taken further action by filing a police report.
The court has mandated that Granberry refrain from owning firearms and prohibited him from contacting Bailey until a hearing set for June 6. At this upcoming session, the judge holds the authority to extend the order for a period of up to five years.
Additionally, Bailey's legal pursuit includes a request for Granberry to cease disparaging remarks on social media, which have led to negative backlash from his expansive following. As a prominent figure not only in music with five Grammy nominations under her belt but also in acting with her recent role in a Disney film, Bailey aims to safeguard her family's well-being against his continued harassment.
With DDG's rise in the digital landscape during the mid-2010s, both figures bear heavy public scrutiny as the situation unfolds. The upcoming court hearing is expected to further illuminate the details of this high-profile case.
