Halle Bailey Granted Restraining Order Against DDG After Alleging He Slammed Her Head Into Steering Wheel

The façade has officially crumbled. A Los Angeles judge has granted actress and singer Halle Bailey a domestic violence restraining order against her ex-boyfriend and the father of her child, rapper, and YouTube personality DDG, after she detailed a pattern of disturbing, violent, and obsessive behavior in a court filing.

The accusations paint a sinister portrait of aggression, control, and mood swings, all hiding behind created couple vlogs and red carpet photo shoots. According to the legal records TMZ obtained, Bailey described several incidents that led her to file a lawsuit in court and ultimately seek protection.

Alleged Violence During January Custody Exchange: Hair-Pulling, Head-Smashing, Crying Baby

In what was supposed to be a routine custody exchange in January, Bailey describes how things quickly unraveled when an argument over visitation plans turned ugly. While strapping their 18-month-old son, Halo, into the car seat, she says DDG lost his cool.

Bailey is said to have screamed, “Get out of my car, btch,”* before grabbing her by the hair and slamming her head into the steering wheel hard enough to break her tooth.

This was accomplished with their toddler in attendance.

Bailey described the physical attack stopped only when Halo began crying, obviously distressed at what he was witnessing. Hurt and frightened, Bailey stayed in the car on the drive to DDG’s house for fear something would happen to her son. When the family arrived, she reportedly collapsed and told DDG’s family members what had just happened. They took Halo in temporarily, apparently realizing how severe the situation was.

March Intrusion: DDG Allegedly Breaks Into Bailey’s Home, Sends Cryptic Text About Her Bed

Things reportedly escalated even further in March when DDG, without permission, entered Bailey’s home while she wasn’t there. Once inside, he allegedly took a photo of her empty bed and texted it to her with the message, “now I know what u been on.”

Let that sink in. Your ex sneaks into your house to monitor your bed, then sends you a guilt-tripping message implying you’re cheating, all while co-parenting a toddler.

Bailey interpreted this as an accusation of infidelity and yet another unsettling attempt at surveillance and control. If her previous claims pointed to physical abuse, this incident introduced the element of stalking and psychological warfare.

Second Confrontation at Home: Verbal Abuse, Ring Camera Smashed, and Phone Thrown From a Moving Car

Just four days after the alleged home intrusion, Bailey says DDG returned, this time to pick up their son. But Halo was sick, and Bailey refused to let him leave the house. That’s when she says DDG turned verbally abusive.

According to the court filing, he destroyed her Ring security camera, grabbed her phone, and left the property in a rage. As he sped off, Bailey claims he flung her phone out of the car window and shouted, “Go get it, btch.”

After this incident, Bailey contacted law enforcement and filed a police report, which ultimately led to the court granting her a protective order.

Court Grants Full Restraining Order: DDG Ordered to Stay Away, Stop Talking, and Stay Offline About Her and Their Son

Following the disturbing pattern of behavior described by Bailey, a judge has now issued a domestic violence restraining order against DDG. The order requires him to remain at least 100 yards away from Bailey and forbids him from speaking about her or their son on his online platforms, including YouTube and livestreams.

The court also granted Bailey permission to temporarily relocate with their son to Italy for two months while she films an upcoming movie. It’s a small but critical window of peace for a woman who, according to her filing, has been navigating fear and harassment for months.

Behind the Couple-Goals Persona: A Disturbing Pattern of Control and Intimidation Emerges

To the rest of the world, Halle Bailey and DDG appeared to be just another influencer couple making content and sharing cute moments. But court records paint a completely different picture, one of coercion, instability, and intimidation that not even an Instagram filter can cover up.

This isn’t some nasty breakup that went bad. This is a case of alleged domestic violence, emotional abuse, and stalking, all against a young child.

It’s just another example of how fame, wealth, and popularity mean nothing if someone is determined to dominate and oppress their partner.

No Public Statement Yet, But Public Scrutiny Is Growing: The Internet Is Not Looking Away

Neither DDG nor his camp have issued any public statement in response to the restraining order or the allegations. Halle Bailey has also kept a public silence, letting the legal documents and her court actions speak louder than any social media post ever could.

But fans and the general public are watching closely. Support for Bailey has been widespread, and DDG is now facing intense backlash as details of the case circulate online.

For now, the judge’s order gives Bailey the protection she needs to focus on her safety, son, and career, far from what she described as a dangerous and manipulative environment.

And the rest of us? We’ll be keeping receipts.
