Halle Bailey’s boyfriend and the father of her three-month-old son, Halo, has unquestionably racked up a few “cool points” as DDG orchestrated the “Halle Bailey Awards” on Snapchat. The 23-year-old didn’t bring home any NAACP Awards this year; however, she did win big at the first-ever “Halle Bailey Awards”. The new mom even got to take home the coveted “Best Mother” award.
In a series of videos posted on Snapchat, the 26-year-old gave Bailey several awards, including one for “best mother.”
“I want to give this award out for the best one ever, and this award goes to the one and only, Halle Bailey. For the best mother award, wooo!” DDG said in one of the clips as Bailey is holding Halo, looking surprised and happy all in one.
“I’m crying,” Bailey can be heard saying as she wiped away tears. “Thank you.”
The Little Mermaid actress was nominated for entertainer of the year, outstanding actress in a motion picture and outstanding supporting actress in a motion picture at this year’s NAACP Awards.
Earlier this year, during the GRAMMY U Masterclass, held during Grammy week, Bailey shared insights into how motherhood has profoundly changed her.
“I feel like I’ve reached this new level of maturity, especially being a mother now, which is so crazy to say,” Bailey shared. “It has opened up a whole new can of worms for me, honestly. I am obsessed with my baby. It’s insane.”
“It’s literally like your heart is in your hands in this beautiful being,” she added, speaking to the crowd of holding her child. “I just feel like I have such greater purpose and so much more to do for him and so much more that I want him to be able to experience. It gives me a new motivation and drive and passion for myself, for my family, for my life.”
As we all know, the young mother and her partner have been met with harsh criticism saying that they “lied” about her being pregnant.
At the 2024 Essence Black Women in Hollywood Awards, Bailey addressed the criticism stating that, choosing to keep her pregnancy private, came from “a place of protection. There was no way in hell I was going to share the biggest joy of my world with anyone. Halo was my gift. He is the greatest blessing, and I had no obligation to expose him, me, or my family to that.”
Congratulations, Halle on winning one of the most important awards that you will unquestionably receive in your career!
