Thu Jul 03 06:00:00 UTC 2025: ## Halle Bailey Spotted Kissing Mystery Man Amid Custody Battle with DDG

**Positano, Italy** – Halle Bailey, star of Disney’s “The Little Mermaid,” was photographed engaging in a PDA-filled display with a new man during a recent boating trip in Italy. The sighting, captured on camera and published by TMZ on July 1st, shows Bailey cuddling and kissing the unidentified man as they sailed around Positano. Bailey herself posted photos from the trip on her Instagram, captioning them “just keep swimming,” without revealing who took the pictures.

This romantic getaway comes amidst a heated legal battle between Bailey and her ex-boyfriend, rapper DDG (Daryl Dwayne Granberry Jr.), over the custody of their 18-month-old son, Halo.

Court documents obtained by E! News reveal that Bailey has accused DDG of attacking her during a co-parenting handoff in January. In her filing, Bailey states, “I have done everything possible to avoid going to Court… I cannot allow this abuse any longer. I cannot keep living like this.” She alleges that she has facilitated DDG’s access to their son despite his tendency to leave Halo with his mother.

DDG has vehemently denied these allegations, accusing Bailey of being the aggressor in their relationship. In his own court filings, he argues that Bailey poses an “imminent emotional and psychological risk” to their son. Bailey is currently seeking sole legal and physical custody of Halo.

Bailey and DDG publicly announced their breakup in October 2024, ending a two-year relationship that included several high-profile red carpet appearances. They welcomed their son, Halo, in January 2024. The custody battle continues, and the recent sighting of Bailey with a new romantic interest adds another layer to the already complex situation.
