Halle Bailey is denying DDG‘s claims about her mental health issues amid their custody battle.

On Wednesday (June 4), DDG filed a request for a restraining order against Halle following her accusations of domestic violence. According to the 27-year-old rapper, the 25-year-old singer and actress has used threats of self-harm to emotionally manipulate him. The following day, Halle filed a response statement and denied his claims.

According to the declaration filed by Halle, DDG has “exaggerated, lied and misconstrued” her mental health issues.

“I have been very vocal about my anxiety, depression and previous thoughts of suicide. Without waiving the psychotherapist-patient privilege and physician-patient privilege, I have reached out to my doctor and received treatment to address these issues. I have been and remain 100% available and capable as a parent to our son,” Halle wrote in her response to the court.

Halle then went on to say that the mental health episodes he referenced were in 2022 and 2023 and were a response to relationship issues that she and DDG were having at the time.

Her filing states that he never thought they were causing any issues with her parenting until their custody hearing was scheduled. She wrote in the declaration, “Had Darryl really been concerned about my parenting, he would have taken action prior to this time.”

In case you missed it, Halle was recently granted temporary sole custody of the son she shares with DDG as their legal battle continues.
