Halle Bailey sets pregnancy rumors swirling among her fans on social media after she steps out in extra-baggy hoodie with beau DDG in Santa Monica

Halle Bailey’s fans reached a fever pitch over the weekend as they went into overdrive sharing their takes on pregnancy rumors that have dogged her in recent days.

The renewed rumors were set off when she was seen walking outdoors in Santa Monica on Friday with her boyfriend DDG (real name: Darryl Dwayne Granberry Jr.).

The songstress-turned-actress was seen wearing a particularly baggy gray hoodie on the outing, which some fans thought betrayed the outline of a bump.

It was the latest in a string of outfits that obscured her figure and led to a rash of fan posts both judging her for her alleged pregnancy and also defending her.

DailyMail.com has reached out to Halle’s representatives for comment. 

Rumors swirling: Halle Bailey’s fans reached a fever pitch on Tuesday as they went into overdrive sharing their takes on pregnancy rumors that have dogged her in recent days

Covering her figure: She set off even more rumors on Tuesday, when she was seen in a particularly baggy gray hoodie in Santa Monica while walking with her boyfriend DDG (real name: Darryl Dwayne Granberry Jr.)

Halle was pictured on Tuesday while walking on a public sidewalk with DDG by her side and with his arm affectionately resting on her back.

The Little Mermaid live-action remake star had on a gray graphic hoodie that fit loosely on her but was tighter around her waist, showing what appeared to be a raised section where her stomach was.

She one sleeve rolled up, revealing a cotton ball taped at the crook of her arm where she had either had a blood draw or received an injection of some kind.

Notably, DDG had the same bandaged spot on both of his arms, though one of Halle’s arms was covered up by her extended sleeve.

Halle had on a bright scarlet shirt that peaked out from underneath her muted hoodie.

She contrasted her dark outerwear with a pair of baggy light gray sweatpants that swallowed up her figure and dragged along the ground as she walked.

Halle completed her ultra-casual ensemble with a set of black socks and matching black slide sandals.

She added some more color by accessorizing with a tiny lavender clutch, which she held against her phone in one hand.

Going deep: The latest round of rumors and speculation included not only people debating whether or not Halle was pregnant, but also other fans opining on a potential pregnancy’s impact on her career

Robbed of a career? Some fans worried that it would ruin her potential and prevent her from doing more high profile projects in both the music and film industries

The latest round of rumors and speculation included not only people debating whether or not Halle was pregnant, but also other fans opining on a potential pregnancy’s impact on her career.

Several fans seemed particularly upset about her boyfriend DDG possibly being the father of her alleged child, with some users on Twitter (recently renamed X) referring to him as a ‘bum.’

Even as some fans lashed out about her alleged lost potential from a young pregnancy, others lambasted those same fans for their judgmental posts.

While some fans rudely called her boyfriend a bum, but others defended him. One post claimed he ‘got his family out the hood with a youtube channel.’

Others reminded more judgmental fans that even if Halle was pregnant, it wouldn’t rob her of opportunities.

‘IF Halle Bailey is pregnant, that ain’t gon’ stop no show. She’s still Halle, still booked and still as gifted as it gets. It’s not 1968 guys lol relax,’ wrote one fan. 

One person reminded naysayers that their critical comments about Halle’s pregnancy would also offended anyone in their life who got pregnant at a young age. 

But another user clarified that some of those worrying about her potential were just disappointed after seeing other Black women have to give up their careers and dreams due to pregnancies and child rearing. 

They said concerned fans were ‘just disappointed,’ and pointed out that there were so ‘many amazing Black women’ who were also young mothers.
