DDG has addressed the controversy surrounding the extravagant gift he presented to his son Halo for his first birthday: a full-sized Ferrari. The luxury car sparked skepticism among fans, questioning the appropriateness of such a gift for a toddler. In a recent livestream with model India Love, DDG revealed that the Ferrari was actually a rental, not a permanent gift for his son.
“If I’m being honest, I rented it,” DDG confessed during the livestream. “I thought it was a cool idea. It made for a great moment, and one day, he’ll be able to look back at it.”
The revelation has sparked further discussion online, with fans and critics debating whether the gesture was appropriate for a child so young.
A Milestone Celebration: DDG and Halle Bailey Co-Parenting in Harmony
The first birthday celebration for Halo marked a special moment not only for DDG and his son but also for his co-parenting relationship with Halle Bailey. This event was the first public appearance together for the former couple since their split. Bailey led a heartfelt rendition of “Happy Birthday” for Halo, while DDG shared his joy on social media:
“THE BEST BABY IN THE WORLD JUST TURNED 1!” DDG wrote in his post.
Bailey also reflected on the milestone, writing:
“A year ago today, my baby arrived—can’t believe he’s 1! More to come later.”
While the celebration was a joyous occasion for both parents, it wasn’t without its complexities, as this co-parenting dynamic has faced challenges in the public eye.
Previous Co-Parenting Tensions: Bailey’s Concerns Over Livestream
DDG’s parenting decisions have not always been met with unanimous support. In a prior incident, Halle Bailey voiced her frustration over their son’s unexpected appearance on a livestream hosted by content creator Kai Cenat. Bailey expressed her concerns on X (formerly Twitter), revealing that she had not been informed about the livestream, which reached millions of viewers.
“Just so everyone knows, I’m out of town, and I didn’t approve of my baby being on a stream tonight,” Bailey wrote. “I wasn’t told in advance, and I’m really upset that he was in front of millions of people without my knowledge.”
Bailey later elaborated on the emotional toll of postpartum struggles and the importance of respecting boundaries in co-parenting. While her response received mixed reactions, DDG has publicly acknowledged her feelings, showing efforts to work through their differences for the sake of their son.
The Public Opinion Divide
While some fans sympathized with Bailey’s concerns about her son’s exposure without her consent, others questioned her response, suggesting that DDG had acted out of good intentions. Despite the divided public opinion, DDG continues to navigate the complexities of co-parenting, trying to maintain a positive and respectful relationship with his ex-partner.
Looking Ahead: DDG’s Parenting and Public Life
As DDG continues to expand his career, his personal life and decisions remain under public scrutiny. However, his transparent approach to addressing controversies—whether regarding extravagant gifts or co-parenting challenges—shows his commitment to navigating parenthood in the spotlight.
Fans and critics alike will likely continue to follow DDG’s journey as he balances his career and personal life while raising his son Halo.
