Halle Bailey, the talented actress known for her role in The Little Mermaid, recently opened up about her experience with pregnancy cravings and her decision to temporarily stray from her vegan diet. Halle and her husband, rapper and vlogger DDG, welcomed their first child, a son named Halo, in January. While sharing her pregnancy journey with fans, Halle revealed that she had given up veganism during her pregnancy and has yet to return to it completely.
During a live chat on her Instagram, Halle was asked by her followers if she was still vegan while she was seen eating with her eight-month-old son in the background. She replied, "Not anymore. When I was pregnant, I started craving meat and I wanted to give my body what it needed to grow a healthy baby." Halle had been following a vegan diet for 13 years before her pregnancy and she explained that she wanted to make sure her baby was getting all the necessary nutrients.
She added, "If I have a craving for chicken or something, I'll eat it, but I don't eat a lot of meat. It's more like if I want it, I'll have it and that's it." Halle also mentioned that it's not uncommon for pregnant women to stray from their usual diet habits, as she had found many other vegan women who did the same. This situation was not unfamiliar to Halle's sister, Chloe, who accidentally ate meat at a restaurant last year when her order was mixed up.
In April, Halle shared that she had been struggling with postpartum depression, describing it as "severe" and feeling like she was drowning and disconnected from her body. In a video on her Snapchat, she opened up about her experience, saying, "It's to the point where it's really bad and it's hard for me to be separated from my baby for more than 30 minutes without freaking out." Despite her struggles, Halle expressed her joy and love for her "perfect" baby boy.
Halle also gave a shout-out to her husband DDG, who has been her rock throughout her journey with postpartum depression. She called him the "most amazing daddy in the world" and shared how he has been supporting her through it all. Halle announced the birth of her son with a sweet Instagram post, showing a tiny bracelet with the name "Halo" on it. In the caption, she wrote, "The greatest thing that 2023 could have done for me was bring me my son."
