Rapper and content creator DDG has officially been granted permission to visit his son Halo in Italy—but under strict conditions that have fans wondering: Is this a father-son reunion or a legal minefield waiting to explode? Following a heated custody dispute with singer and actress Halle Bailey, a Los Angeles court ruled on June 26 that DDG could see his 18-month-old son for a limited three-day window, from July 1–3, during Bailey’s film shoot in Rome. But there’s a catch, several, in fact.
Under the court order:
- No overnights.
- Supervised visits only and not by DDG’s mother, as he requested. Instead, Bailey’s team will send her nanny and private security to monitor all interactions.
- No social media posts involving Halo.
- No travel beyond a 3-mile radius from the designated meeting area.
- Hotel locations must be shared between both parties.
Tension flared during the hearing after DDG’s legal team objected to Bailey’s nanny serving as a supervisor, specifically because she could later be called to testify in court. The judge dismissed those concerns, keeping the nanny on duty and leaving DDG under scrutiny. The court-mandated visit comes after Bailey was awarded temporary sole custody of Halo earlier this year, citing allegations of domestic violence and inconsistent support from DDG. She also holds a restraining order against the rapper, making this brief Italian reunion even more delicate.
A remote mediation is set for August 8, with the next in-person court date scheduled for August 20, and with each legal move playing out in public, the drama between DDG and Halle Bailey is far from over.
