Halle Bailey and DDG are formally introducing their son to the world, as well as the Italian coast. On Saturday (July 3), the couple shared their first photos of baby Halo’s face on Instagram, posing with the six-month-old in glamorous vacation shots in Europe.
In the snaps, the Little Mermaid star looks stunning in a glamorous bejeweled gown, the “Moonwalking In Calabasas” rapper wearing a matching shirt. The family stands on a dock that looks out onto miles of deep blue ocean, the smiling parents proudly holding up their baby boy.
“halo’s first time in italy 🤍🌊” Bailey captioned the post.
In the comments, Halle’s famous sister and bandmate Chloe Bailey wrote, “auntie’s baby!!! 😍😍😍”
The post marks fans’ first proper time seeing Halo’s face since the “In Your Hands” singer and DDG welcomed their first child together late last year. Halle announced his birth six days into January, sharing a photo of his tiny hand on Instagram and writing, “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.”
In May, the vocalist shared a video of her son’s birth as well as clips of her first few weeks of motherhood in honor of her first Mother’s Day as a parent. In the reel, she holds her newborn while lying in her hospital bed, presumably just moments after welcoming her son, while another shot shows her boyfriend cradling the tiny baby boy.
“my first mother’s day,” she captioned the post. “the greatest love i’ve ever known.”
The star has also been open about the more complicated parts of becoming a mom. In April, she got candid about experiencing what she called “severe” postpartum depression after giving birth, revealing in a Snapchat video, “it’s hard for me to be separated from my baby for more than 30 minutes at a time before I start to kind of freak out.”
“When I look at him, I cry because of how special he is,” she’d added. “The only thing that’s been hard for me is feeling normal in my own body. I feel like a completely different person. When I look in the mirror, I just feel like I’m in a whole new body. Like, I don’t know who I am.”
