On Monday (Feb. 26), Halle Bailey and Halle Berry shared photos together after attending the LA Galaxy versus Inter Miami opener in California on Sunday (Feb. 25). The images caused a stir on social media, especially given that the pair share the same first name and similar last names.
In the caption, Berry wrote, “When two Halles link up. Truly adore you, Halle Bailey.” Responding in the comment section, The Little Mermaid actress expressed her excitement, saying, “I was living for this moment! Thank you for being so kind to me. You’ve made my life.”
DDG, who shares a son with Bailey, also posted pictures online with the Academy Award winner. However, a fan account seemingly cropped him out of the photos and reshared them on Twitter, prompting the rapper to respond. He quote-tweeted the post and humorously said, “At least let me keep an eyeball in that [image]if you’re gonna crop it.”

The user later responded with a meme of Bailey laughing. They shared, “I got this picture from the [timeline], but agreed! Not an eye or anything.” Though seemingly accidental, the incident raised questions about why DDG faces so much hostility on the internet.
One person asked, “I truly don’t understand why y’all be hating on DDG so much. What did he do to deserve all the hate?” Another explained, “I love DDG, and the way he shows up and supports his partner no matter what it is. Y’all tried to make him seem like a terrible person when he wasn’t the problem and just needed to meet the right woman! I love them.”

On Saturday (Feb. 24), Bailey shared how motherhood influenced her career positively. Speaking to The Associated Press, she expressed, “This is such a beautiful time for me because I am truly venturing into my womanhood. Like I feel like a woman now after having a baby. It opens up this whole other portal to like to write about stuff. So, the music I have been making is the fusion of all of the genres that I’ve loved.”
The “Angel” singer and DDG quietly welcomed their first child together in 2023. They revealed the news on Jan. 6, 2024, with Bailey sharing a photo of Halo’s hand adorned with a golden bracelet.
Meanwhile, DDG referenced the newborn in his track “Darryl Freestyle,” released on the same day. He rapped, “Silver spoon kid, I know Halo don’t want for nothing/ He crying, his mama coming, she stronger than Wonder Woman.”
