DDG was granted a temporary restraining order against Halle Bailey after alleging she endangered their son.
DDG reportedly secured a temporary restraining order against Halle Bailey on Wednesday (May 15) after alleging she poses a risk to their infant son and should be barred from taking him overseas, escalating an already volatile custody fight between the two entertainers.
In court documents, DDG — born Darryl Dwayne Granberry Jr. — claimed Bailey “poses an immediate threat to my safety and emotional well-being and more importantly, to the stability and safety of our son.”
He also accused her of coercive behavior and physical abuse and cited what he described as a pattern of “repeated, documented threats of self-harm.”
One incident detailed in his filing involved Bailey allegedly taking his firearm and leaving their home while threatening to harm herself.
He described her as “emotionally unwell, incoherent, and potentially suicidal.”
Although the court granted DDG’s request for a temporary restraining order, it denied his motion for sole custody and blocked his attempt to prevent Bailey from traveling internationally with their son until a future hearing can be held.
Halle Bailey Accuses DDG Of Abuse
Bailey, who previously filed for her own restraining order and sole custody, has accused DDG of physical and verbal abuse. In her filing, she claimed he once slammed her face into a steering wheel while their child was present.
In response to DDG’s claims, Halle Bailey told the court that her mental health is stable and that he is “exaggerating and embellishing incidents from 2022 and 2023,” during a time she described as being “emotionally devastated” by his actions, Billboard reports.
“If Darryl was genuinely worried about my parenting, he would have acted sooner,” Bailey stated in court documents. She called his legal move “nothing but a cold act of retribution intended to embarrass, humiliate, and inflict additional emotional pain on me.”
Bailey also pointed out that DDG only raised concerns about her parenting on the same day a hearing was scheduled for her domestic abuse allegations against him.
In a statement to XXL, DDG’s legal team pushed back on reports suggesting his request had been denied. “We are aware of inaccurate media reports suggesting that Mr. Granberry was denied a restraining order against Ms. Halle Bailey. This is categorically false. The Court granted Mr. Granberry a Temporary Restraining Order (TRO) based on the serious allegations set forth in his application.”
