LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Halle Bailey has reportedly been granted a restraining order against her former boyfriend, DDG, after she accused him of physical as well as verbal abuse.

PEOPLE citing court documents obtained on Tuesday, May 13, reported that the court order also protects Halo Saint Granberry — Bailey and DDG's son, whose full name is Darryl Dwayne Granberry, from him.

The actress had requested for temporary protection in Los Angeles County Superior Court, writing, “I realize that there is no placating Darryl. I cannot allow this abuse any longer.”

DDG has to maintain over 100 yards distance from Halle Bailey and their son

The 27-year-old YouTuber now cannot go near Bailey and Halo. He has to mainatin more than 100 yards of distance from them at all times, the court ruled.

While filing her request, Bailey alleged that “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 claimed in her documents.

DDG accused Halle Bailey of seeing another man

The request also mentioned a police complaint filed by Bailey with the Los Angeles Police Department in March.

As per the report, DDG had entered her house despite her saying she and their son were suffering from Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV). The infection prohibited Halo from leaving the house.

But the YouTuber, in response, yelled expletives and tried to take the child with him.

The 25-year-old singer also submitted an alleged text message as proof to the court after her ex accused her of spending Mother's Day with another man.

The May 11 message sent to DDG by Bailey read, “Darryl, are u not tired of harassing me? you make up a new lie for 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,” she added.

Halle Bailey claims to feel threatened by DDG’s fans

In her request, ‘The Color Purple’ actress stated, “I also ask the Court to order Darryl to cease and desist 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,” she wrote.
