HALLE Bailey has revealed that she’s been spending her holiday break at home.
Earlier this week, fans were left convinced that The Little Mermaid actress secretly gave birth after spotting a “clue” in a recent social media post.
On Thursday, Halle, 23, uploaded several videos on her Snapchat story to ask her followers about their week and thanked everyone for their support by seeing her new movie, The Color Purple.
The rising Hollywood star went make-up-free while hanging out in her home.
She seemingly had a furry white blanket around her while wearing a black shirt underneath and a heart-shaped necklace.
“Today, for me was a super chill day I’ve literally just been relaxing, I took a nice steamy shower, I’ve been in bed watching movies,” she said.

She then urged fans to send her photos of them posing next to the movie poster at their local theaters so she can repost them on her Instagram Stories.
Later on, she discussed what she and her boyfriend, DDG – real name Darryl Dwayne Granberry Jr – did for the holidays.
“Me and Darryl had our anniversary a few days ago and I wanted to show what we did that night, I forgot to post them, but it was the day after Christmas. It’s so exciting, two years it’s so sweet I love him so much with all my heart. We’ve just been having so much fun,” Halle swooned.
Over the last few months, fans have been spotting “clues” that Halle was pregnant with her first child – but has now secretly given birth.
NEW MOM?
Earlier this week, one video grabbed the attention of followers as they thought they heard a “baby crying.”
Fans also spotted Halle getting up slowly in a video, which they think could be a sign.
The star made a recent guest appearance in a vlog by Brittany Jones documenting their Christmas day with DDG.
The YouTuber filmed her family opening gifts in the living room of DDG’s Los Angeles home.
While Halle was not in the video, fans thought they could hear something revealing in the background.
A user reposted the clip onto X, formerly Twitter, for followers to focus on.
They titled the video: “A newborn baby can be heard crying on DDG’s Christmas vlog, prompting more speculation that Halle Bailey had his child.”
Faint crying could be heard in the background of the video and fans believed that Halle and DDG’s absence was due to a newborn baby.
The original video, reposted by XXL Magazine was captioned: “A newborn baby can be heard crying on DDG’s Christmas vlog, prompting more speculation that Halle Bailey had his child.
‘SHE HAD THE BABY ALREADY’
Fans flooded the replies with speculation that Halle had indeed given birth.
Someone wrote: “Speculations? Lol, she done had it.”
Another said: “She had the baby already.”
A third commented: “DDG screaming cut cut cut.”
A user asked: “Why is she hiding the BABY?”
“Congratulations,” another added.
OTHER ‘CLUES’
Throughout the year, whenever she was seen out in public, Halle seemed to wear loose-fitting clothing or hold something in front of her midsection to hide her belly.
The couple uploaded a holiday-themed video to social media while making Christmas cookies.
While DDG wore a Santa hat and a white tee, Halle wore colorful pajamas, with full glam makeup and intricately braided hair.
Fans noticed a moment the film star rose from her seat to get a spatula and noted how she stood very slowly and grabbed the table for support.
One fan commented on The Shade Room‘s video: “She had to get up slow! She just had that baby lol I know that slow get up.”
A second agreed: “Oh yea even by the way she got up.. she JUST had that baby.”
“Slid off that chair like a new mom, congratulations,” wrote a third social media user.
A fourth claimed: “They just low-key revealed that the baby is here LOL. Congratulations!”
Another fan joked: “She spent nine months hiding her stomach, and it all came to an end baking some cookies.”
