Rapper and YouTuber DDG has found himself at the center of yet another controversy, this time involving rumors about his relationship with ex-girlfriend Halle Bailey. While the pair split earlier in October 2024, the internet has been anything but respectful of their privacy, despite DDG’s requests. Most recently, a TikToker, going by the handle @frankie_aab, posted a video accusing DDG of “trapping” Halle Bailey with a child, igniting a heated exchange between the two.
The TikTok Accusation
On October 10, 2024, a TikToker made waves with a bold claim that DDG intentionally started a family with Halle Bailey only to break up with her afterward. The insinuation was that DDG “trapped” Bailey, which suggests manipulation on his part. This theory quickly caught fire, and DDG, clearly not happy with the rumor, took to Instagram Live to defend himself.

In his Instagram Live session, DDG wasted no time in addressing the accusations. He brushed off the TikToker’s comments by criticizing the platform’s algorithm and her content. “CPM’s not that high for you to be on there talking for two minutes about me,” he said, referring to the amount of money content creators earn per thousand views. The rapper didn’t stop there; he decided to make it personal by pointing out that the TikTok creator had two children and was, in his words, without a “baby daddy.”
“You got two kids, I looked on your Instagram… with no baby daddy. But you worry about me,” DDG remarked, making it clear that he wasn’t happy about people discussing his personal life. He wrapped up his rant by asking his followers to stop engaging with these kinds of rumors, saying, “I be seeing what y’all be saying, bro. Y’all need to stop.”

TikToker Fires Back
Not one to let DDG’s comments go unanswered, @frankie_aab quickly responded to his remarks in a follow-up TikTok. She highlighted that DDG had been notably absent from Halle Bailey’s social media since their breakup. “I need y’all to let me know when you see DDG on her page,” she said sarcastically, pointing out that DDG’s presence in Bailey’s life appeared minimal since the split.
The TikToker didn’t shy away from calling out the rapper’s hypocrisy. “It’s funny that you try to use me being a baby mama as an insult when you turned her into a baby mama your damn self,” she quipped, adding more fuel to the fire. She also defended herself against DDG’s accusation that her children’s father wasn’t involved, explaining that her kids were currently spending time with their dad. “Why would I have my ex-husband on my page?” she asked, pointing out that it wouldn’t make sense to include her ex on her social media after they had parted ways.
The back-and-forth between DDG and the TikToker has raised questions about double standards. On one hand, @frankie_aab called out DDG for making assumptions about her personal life, yet she was the one who started the conversation by speculating about his. The entire situation underscores how quickly rumors can spiral out of control on social media, and how both parties ended up in a messy exchange that did little to resolve the initial accusations.
DDG Speaks Out About His Relationship Status
Since the breakup, DDG has repeatedly asked fans and followers to respect his privacy. In a livestream on October 8, 2024, he confirmed his split from Halle Bailey and clarified that he was not looking to enter a new relationship anytime soon. “I don’t have a potential girlfriend nor do I even think about that, whatsoever. I don’t plan on getting into another relationship at all, unless it’s Halle. That’s the only way,” DDG stated. He also emphasized that he didn’t want to have multiple “baby mamas” and had no interest in starting another relationship unless it was with Bailey.

During the livestream, DDG reiterated his desire to be left alone and asked people to stop speculating about his personal life. He mentioned that he was about to pick up his son after the stream, reinforcing that he is focused on being a father rather than engaging in online drama.

The ongoing saga between DDG and his critics shows no signs of slowing down, with social media rumors continuing to swirl. While DDG has been vocal about his desire for privacy, this latest exchange highlights the challenges public figures face in controlling their narratives. As of now, both DDG and Halle Bailey have moved on, but it’s clear that their relationship will remain a topic of discussion as long as the internet remains invested in their lives.
