    Halle Bailey has filed for a temporary restraining order against DDG

    The 25-year-old singer previously dated the rapper - whose real name is Darryl Dwayne Granberry Jr. - and has 19-month-old son Halo with him but just over six months after they announced their split, PEOPLE has learned via legal documents that she is accusing him of various kinds of abuse


    In the legal documents that were obtained by the outlet, she said: "I realize that there is no placating Darryl. I cannot allow this abuse any longer.

    "Whenever he wishes to cause upset, he starts badmouthing me to his several millions of fans.

    "He claims I am withholding our son and that I am with other men. As a result, I then receive threats and hate on social media. He seems to try to set up drama for his fans. He goes 'live' ranting about me and alleges that I am keeping Halo from him. This is false. I have requested a set schedule, which he refuses."

    The 'Little Mermaid' star included photographic evidence with her request, which included pictures of her bearing a chipped front tooth and a large bruise on her bicep.

    Bailey also included a text message which she alleged she sent to her former partner.

    It read: "Darryl, are u not tired of harassing me? you make up a new lie on me everyday.. i'm in st lucia having fun with shermay and chloe. not with any man out here. i wouldn't do that, i have halo. i told ur mom i was gonna be with my sister last week.. please let me enjoy my mother's day in peace. i hope you are okay and feel better soon."

    The actress has requested full custody of her son Halo and intends to take him to Italy for two months while she works on a film project.

    She added: "I have family and a nanny who will be traveling with me to care for Halo while I am working," the court document detailed.

    "I also ask the Court to order Darryl to cease from posting and/or streaming on any and all platforms about about Halo and/or me, including but not limited to Youtube, Twitch, Tiktok, Instagram, and Twitter/X.

    "He is a YouTube and Twitch Blogger and creates a fan frenzy by making false claims about me. This has caused me to feel afraid and victimized. His fans then threaten me. I am often scared for my life and Halo's safety. #freehalo has become a slogan online."
