Halle Bailey has gone public with a new man as of 1 July, following paparazzi shots picturing her cosying up to the mysterious man.

Being as high-profile as she is, with her success in The Little Mermaid as well as her established music career with her sister Chloe Bailey, she has been linked to numerous celebrities.

Whilst she has had a very public split from popular streamer, and father to her son, DDG, who else has the star dated? And who is she dating currently?

Halle’s most famous ex is, of course, her baby daddy and streamer DDG.

The pair’s paths first crossed all the way back in 2015, but didn’t have a romantic connection until much later.

It wasn’t until fans spotted the two celebrities in the crowd at a Usher gig in January 2022 that rumours started to swirl.

Later on that year, DDG posted and swiftly deleted a birthday post for his partner, with the caption “Happy Birthday to the beautifuliest…love you forever.’

However, it was confirmed by them both when they stepped out onto the BET Awards in June 2022, their first time debuting the relationship.

The loved-up couple even had a relationship in the career world as well, with Halle starring in the rapper's ‘If I Want You’ music video.

Halle gave birth to their son, Halo, in January 2024, after being together for almost 2 years.

However, the couple called it quits that same year in October, DDG announced via Instagram.

He said, “I cherish the time we've spent together and the love we shared. Despite the changes in our relationship, our love for each other remains deep and true. We are still best friends and adore each other.”

They seemingly had an amicable break-up, but recently it has become clear, amid abuse allegations from both individuals, that it wasn’t as it seemed.

They are currently in court to settle their custody battle for their son, Halo.

Halle was linked to Burna Boy after being pictured looking cosy with the African Giant, Burna Boy.

Taken at the Met Gala 2025, in May, the two were seen smiling and posting in a picture some fans thought indicated a relationship.

However, in actuality, it is not Halle, but her sister, Chloe Bailey, who is linked to the Afrobeats legend.

So whilst Burna did date Chloe, the speculation seemed to arise out of either confusion or drama…but neither officially denied they were linked.

Amid her break-up and custody battle with her ex, DDG, rumours spread fast about the singer and actress being linked to ‘Dead Man Walking’ singer.

This speculation originally sprouted from images that some fans deemed ‘similar’, of Halle on vacation with her sister and son, in comparison to those of Brent’s vacation snaps.

This snowballed, eventually leading to the streamer publicly claiming the actress was seeing the rapper, which he was publicly not very upset about!

However, the palm trees in the background of each of their own holiday dumps were the only connection, unfortunately, and they have never seemed to date.

Halle Bailey and Scott Bridgeway

Her second ever public relationship is the star’s most recent romance with music producer Scott Bridgeway.

The pair were first papp’d off the coast of Italy, looking very much in love, the pictures being released on July 1st 2025.

The music producer is most famous for his work with music mogul Kendrick Lamar, and eagle-eyed fans have pointed out that all the way back in May 2024, Halle attended the Kendrick concert in Scott’s hometown of Charlotte.

Whilst this couple is fairly new, it is clear from candid shots that they have a loving connection.
