DDG was the one who announced it, and at first, I thought he might be trolling or doing it for publicity. I wanted to wait for Halle to confirm it, but she hasn’t made any statements yet. I expected her publicist would at least release a statement confirming whether it’s real, but since she hasn’t said anything, I’m assuming they might just be going through a rough patch. Maybe they’ve briefly separated, but I wouldn’t be surprised if we see them back together soon.
Some people are actually happy about this breakup, which is unfortunate, especially since Halle and DDG recently welcomed their son together. I don’t think it’s something to celebrate when a family breaks apart, especially after having a child together. When a couple has a baby, it’s important to try to work things out, but that doesn’t always happen. Sadly, sometimes people bring children into the world without a solid relationship foundation, and it’s unfortunate to see it happen to Halle and DDG, especially since I was starting to like them as a couple. Once they had their son, Halo, and I saw how they interacted with him, I thought, “I like them together.”
To be honest, at first, I didn’t care much for DDG. Some of his antics, especially while Halle was promoting *The Little Mermaid*, seemed a bit too much. There was also that incident with Ruby Rose, when DDG texted his ex while he was with Halle. He later admitted he did it to be petty during a rough patch in their relationship, and Halle already knew about it. That whole situation felt toxic to me. But, as time went on, DDG grew on me, and I started liking him more, especially after he became a father.
However, the thing about DDG is that he’s a content creator who often does things for clout, and I don’t think that works well with Halle’s brand. Halle seems to be more private, but she allowed DDG to involve their son in his content, maybe because she was in love. At first, it was cute, with people making memes of their son, Halo, but it eventually became too much. I believe this might have contributed to the breakdown of their relationship, though I don’t know for sure.
I do remember a time when Halle went off on someone for commenting on her son in a video DDG posted. Someone criticized her for pausing her rising career for what they called “a mess,” and Halle responded by tweeting that she was tired of people speaking on her child and career. She expressed her frustration and asked people to leave them alone, saying she rebuked all negativity. It’s clear that people commenting on her family, especially her son, deeply affects her.
Halle has faced a lot of criticism, especially since she got pregnant during a pivotal moment in her career with *The Little Mermaid*. Many people thought that having a child with DDG would slow her career down. While that didn’t stop her from achieving great things, it did cause her to take a brief hiatus. Some people didn’t like that she was having a baby with DDG, thinking it brought down her profile.
It seems Halle has grown tired of seeing her son constantly plastered on the internet, and I don’t think DDG fully considers how she feels about that, since he uses everything for content. While I don’t think his intentions were bad, it may have been too much for Halle, and this could have been a major issue in their relationship.
Now, some people are questioning whether this breakup is real or just another publicity stunt, similar to what we’ve seen with Cardi B and Offset. Cardi and Offset had their public breakup drama, only to still be together and seen dancing at family events. I wouldn’t be surprised if DDG is pulling a similar stunt, pretending to be single for publicity while eventually getting back together with Halle.
In the midst of all this, DDG recently went off on Joe Budden, who made comments about the breakup. Joe questioned who DDG even was and criticized him for being a clout chaser, always being tied to Halle’s name. DDG clapped back, mocking Joe’s career and his hit song “Pump It Up.” While Joe clearly struck a nerve, DDG needs to accept that people see him as a clout chaser, and that’s something he brought on himself.
Lastly, a clip of DDG recently surfaced where he talked about not wanting to be in a serious relationship in his early 20s because it felt like a part-time job. Many people were upset, thinking he was talking about Halle, but he was referring to his life when he was younger. Still, the timing of this clip surfacing after his breakup announcement doesn’t look good.
